The Buck Stops...With the Troops in the Field

As if 380 tons of missing munitions weren't a big enough headache for President Bush's campaign, one of his high profile supporters just dropped a bombshell.

Former New York Mayor Rudi Giuliani says the troops in the field -- not the President -- are to blame.

"No matter how you try to blame it on the president, the actual responsibility for it really would be with the troops. They were there," Giuliani said in an interview on NBC's 'Today' show. "Did they search carefully enough? Didn't they search carefully enough?"

The Bush campaign had been working to convince voters Senator Kerry was blaming US soldiers -- not the President -- for the missing munitions. (LAT)
