re: #227 Escaped Hillbilly

Thanks, think you’re right. The navy has a rear admiral in charge over there but think the Air Force is gonna run things at least for now. This is obviously a JTF mission. I accidentally clicked on
globalresearch.ca (notice it isn’t blue?). Those punks are crying that we have militarized our response to Haiti’s disaster. Seem to imply we ought to have civilians running the show. They don’t explain how. Now I have to go wash my screen off.

They did? I remember those paranoid cranks over at Global Research from a couple of years ago. It’s a joint effort and the military is playing a primary role. This will be common theme with the proverbial moonbats. I was watching an interview with Colin Powell last night on BBC and the interviewer made some stupid comment about “the people in Haiti seeing this as an invasion.” Powell responded appropriately.

The Read Admiral would likely be Rear Adm. Ted N. Branch who is commander of Carrier Strike Group 1. You might remember him from the PBS series “Carrier” when he was Captain of the USS Nimitz.
