yesterdays paper. " Control sought on Military Lawyers. Bush wants power over promotions. Bush administration is pushing to take control of the promotion of military lawyers, escalating a conflict over independence of uniformed attorneys who have repeatedly raised objections to the White House policies toward prisoners in the war on terrorism
The administration is proposing a regulation requiring coordination with politically appointed Pentagon lawyers before any any member of the JAG can be promoted.
He is not satisfied with taking over the Justice Dept now he wants the military lawyers to be subjected to his superior knowledge of the military.
Take over of the government lock stock and barrel. While we fight over who is the best candidate for president. There might not be an election.
