Now, we're talkin'.  Let's get a Bush 43 retread who advised on Afghanistan and Iraq.  Besides, those Ford execs really know their stuff when it comes to national interests and security.  Remember how awesome Robert McNamara was?

He just needs Michael Cohen around and the phrase...

That translates to 'this man will pay for everything.'

It's long past time we got a business executive in charge of national security again.  McNamara was a man who knew how to squeeze every dollar out of a war.  This one might stay awhile.
