Bush vs. Joint Chiefs

It's pretty atypical for a battle between the Joint Chiefs and the Commander-in-Chief to be carried out in public. Usually the Joint Chiefs just roll over and take it, when they don't they sure as hell don't go blabbing to the media about their unanimous opposition to the prez. I wonder if the fact that he is a miserable failure is finally sinking in for Bush?

Considering Bush's history of doing whatever he can get away with, I will not be surprised when he orders the "surge" anyways. No one should be surprised when the extra troops make no significant difference.
