charge!!!

im sorry if this doesnt suit this thread section, but wars, battles, or skirmishes just dont seem the same anymore as they use to (way back when). i mean, whatever happened to the times when the generals of armies charged in the front ranks amongst its common soldiers? well... i suppose, with the times changed and whatnot, they'd all die pretty quickly... but could you imagine george w. bush leading his troops into battle? i dont think so. almost laughable really. i believe it takes a kind of charisma and courage to do that. not to say some of them dont have charisma, but you know... something i think many leaders have lacked in the recent. but alas, those times are over, and now they just point fingers.
