Retired Gen. Tony McPeak, Air Force chief of staff during the first Gulf War and one-time "Veteran for Bush" said America's foreign relations for the first 3 years of Bush's term have been "a national disaster" but that John Kerry was "up to the task" of rebuilding.
The president, on the other hand, "fought against the very formation of the commission and continues to the present moment to give it only grudging cooperation, no matter what he says," the general said. "Why should we believe he will do anything to institute the needed change?"
