General Hayden (NSA) says he took orders from Attorney General...
Alberto Gonzalez. Who was Alberto Gonzalez taking orders from? The Attorney General should be fired immediately. This is the same guy that said "torture" was legal under the circumstances in Afghanistan.

1. What?????
Why was an active duty general taking orders from a civilian who isn't even in his chain of command???

I spent 13 years on active duty, and my wife just retired from the USAF in September, and neither one of us can figure out where the Inquisitor General is, in the military chain of command.

3. I watched that and came to the conclusion
Gen Hayden hasn't really learned the art of doublespeak. The reporters asked great questions but the Gen was really on the defensive and it showed in his manner.
