How Does This End?

Andrew Bacevich is a retired Army colonel, now a professor of history and international relations at Boston University, and author of "The Short American Century."  In this article he discusses our growing dependence on "special forces," the Navy Seals, the Green Berets, and others.  And he talks about what very serious problems their increased use raises.  For better or for worse, we now have a President who really likes to use them, and it is likely his Republican opponent would have the same attitude.  It has scary ramifications.
