Was Tommy Franks happy with the number of troops?
I'm pointing out to a freeptard how Zinni et al's opinions show freepers to be idiots.

He's countering that Tommy Franks felt the number they used was sufficient.

Beyond the obvious fact that if Franks thought that, he's been proven wrong, I seem to remember seeing a report or at least a rumor that Franks was pissed off at the civilian leadership for making him fight with so few men.

Does anyone have any quotes from Franks where he was critical of the pentagon's choice?

I already know that in general (pardon the pun), he's been supporting Bush.
