I'm not sure if you read the long paper Bilmore posted 6 or 8 weeks ago, but this is exactly the distinction that Bush is intentionally making. This isn't your daddy's cold war, and its not grandpa's WWII. Bush can't hold his DoD subordinates accountable to save his life, but he does have that vision thing down. If he could do both, we'd be better off. But Kerry is a no-show on the vision thing, and, at best, a "maybe" on leaving tactical decisions up to the Generals.
