Incompetancy in the UK

Wow. Seems while visiting UK counterpart Jack Straw in his hometown of Blackburn, England, the Reuters wire reports Condaleeza Rice made the following jawdropping statement (hat tip, georgia10 of kos):

"Yes, I know we have made tactical errors, thousands of them,"

Thousands. of. errors.

Do you think that maybe, if any of you geniuses in chucklenutz's cabal, would've listened to all the people that told you to first deal with afghanistan, that iraq wasn't the problem, to build international support, okay, fine, but at least plan the peace, send in the right number of troops, etc etc, maybe THOUSANDS OF MISTAKES WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN MADE?

To me, tactical errors come from the top. I don't know much about the military, but I know that soldiers follow orders, sargents, captains, lietenants, all the way up, follow orders. Tactical mistakes are not execution mistakes.

Saying, my bad, let's stay the course doesn't cut it, condi. While our people die, you're out watching broadway shows or shoe shopping. I wonder, does the administration's call for Jaafari to step down go with the democratic ideals part of the war, or the tactical errors part of the war.
