Retired U.S. Army generals to make TV commercials criticizing Bush's handling of Iraq war

Retired U.S. Army generals to make TV commercials criticizing Bush's handling of Iraq war 08 May 2007 Two retired Army major generals with experience in Iraq will appear in television commercials critical of President (sic) George W. Bush's handling of the war. The ads, to begin airing Wednesday, take aim at key Republicans in the House of Representatives and the Senate. Financed by VoteVets.org, the $500,000 (euro368,785) in ads will feature retired Maj. Gens. John Batiste and Paul Eaton, both of whom have criticized civilian leaders of the U.S. Defense Department in the past.

John Batiste and Paul Eaton, both of whom have criticized civilian leaders of the U.S. Defense Department in the past. Batiste commanded the 1st U.S. Infantry Division in Iraq, and Eaton oversaw training of the Iraqi military from 2003 to 2004.

The commercials are timed to coincide with congressional debate over the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq.
