Myers was to become the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the biggest military issue facing the Bush administration was space-based missile defense–which just happens to be Myers’s area of expertise.

It’s a loner’s life, poring over murder files and railing at fellow liberals who think the poor can do no wrong....
