It isn't as simple as you make it sound, Joe. Military equipment is always
undergoing testing and modification, even during wartime. There are three
helmet systems in use, and they are being retro-fitted with the new
padding system. Even without the new padding system, the helmets are
incredibly effective. I know from experience. With the new padding system,
it's even better solving some of the issues with blast concussion.

Operation Helmet began providing new liners before official testing and
adoptation was completed by the military. And they have helped in getting
them out faster than thru normal military channels. This has nothing to do
with Bush.

It has everything to do with Bush. The title "commander in chief" means he
is, in effect, the CEO of a very large corporation called America.

False; that's just a wretchedly ****ty analogy.
America is not a corporation, and the president doesn't
run "America"; he is the head of the federal
government. Government is a big part of America, but
it is not the country, and the federal government is
not the only governmental entity in the country.

Even limiting the analysis to the federal government,
which is not all of government, which in turn is not
all of the country, the president is *not* like a CEO
of a corporation. There is no separation of powers in
a corporation: no courts, no legislature. You exhibit
massive and *willful* ignorance of the Constitution by
failing to note that the entire Article I of the
Constitution, 10 sections in all, spell out the powers
and responsibilities of the *legislative* branch.

You are a benighted polemicist, and stupid beyond words.
