Barack's Vets' Affairs Secretary

I almost forgot to mention this week that Barack chose Ret. U.S. Army Gen. Eric Shinseki to be his Secretary of Veterans' Affairs. Shinseki is a decorated Vietnam vet. More importantly, Shinseki told Dubya point blank that the administration's Iraq strategy was hideously flawed. Needless to say, I'm very happy that Barack chose Shinseki for this position.
