Bush's smart move

Somehow I haven't heard anyone giving George Bush, our current President, credit for what I believe was an exceedingly smart move when he promoted General Petraeus to be take charge of both the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts. In one adroit manoeuver, George W. Bush changed Petraeus' viewpoint and made him confront the much bigger picture of the total use of our military as a resource and the differences inherent in, and required to function effectively, in each of the diffierent countries. Before, all Petraeus cared about was Iraq and what was needed there. So give President Bush credit for that one at least.
