There's a fuss brewing in Washington over President Bush picking a military man to head the CIA. The mainstream media and some members of Congress consider it a dire threat to the freedom of the country for a person with a military background to head this civilian spy agency. One question: Has anyone ever heard of Stansfield Turner?

Turner, a U.S. Navy admiral and former classmate of President Jimmy Carter at the U.S. Naval Academy, was Carter's pick to head the CIA in 1977. And what was his job before taking over the CIA? He was commander in chief of U.S. Forces in Southern Europe.

You would. He was the wimp who, on Jimmie Carter's order, completely gutted the CIA.

My last year in the Army I met a warrant officer with the perfect name for a president: Fletcher Knox. He was black and good-looking. Dude would be a shoo-in, methinks.
