President Bush nominated Marine Corp General Peter Pace to be the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. If confirmed, General Pace would be the first Marine Corp General to serve as the nations top military officer. General Pace would replace General Richard Myers as chairmen.
"The first thing America needs to know about Pete Pace is that he is a Marine," Bush said. "To the American people, 'Marine' is shorthand for 'can do.' And I'm counting on Pete Pace to bring the Marine spirit to these new responsibilities."
Note to the Democrats, as the President says, General Pace is a Marine that means in the past he might have yelled at a few people from time to time. Hopefully his confirmation will not be the spectacle like John Bolton’s.
As a diehard Tarheel fan, this time of the year is what most Tarheel fans dread. What Tarheels fans dread is the press conference to announce that I am going to NBA. We have seen James Worthy, Michael Jordan, J.R Reid, Jerry Stackhouse, Rasheed Wallace, Vince Carter, Antwan Jamison leave Chapel Hill to fulfill their dream of playing in the big league. Rashad McCants, Raymond Felton, Sean may, and Marvin Williams have all recently announced their intentions. With that said you can add their name to the list of Tarheel basketball players leaving school early. With seniors Jackie Manuel, Melvin Scott, and Jawad Williams graduating, North Carolina are losing 7 players from their 2004–05 Championship team. That is roughly 98 percent of their offense.
