CNN's David Gergen's criticism of Barack Obama's Oval Office Speech and the United States Military

CNN's David Gergen's criticism of Barack Obama's 6/15/10; Oval Office speech to the nation on the BP Gulf Oil Crisis and the need for comprehensive energy policy hints at his approaching senility.

Noting the martial metaphors within Barack Obama's speech CNN's David Gergen fumigated, like a blow fish puffing it's asphyxiation under the master chefs knife and I paraphrase: He (David Gergen) is glad the United States Military does not go to war like that.  With the implication that Barack Obama's oval office speech lacked battle orders and specifics and the United States Military wages war with strategy and specified tactics.

Now this is a clear example of amnesiac revision.  CNN's David Gergen has conveniently and expediently revised George W. Bush's Iraq War, which was waged without strategy nor, tactics with it's only clarity being a boon for Haliburton, Black Water and the other denizens of the military-industrial imperative.

Need I mention another flaing United States Military disorganization, The Vietnam War?
