Retired General Tommy Franks Is An Independent Voter

In a frank interview, the former head of operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, declared that he is an independent voter. “I’m a fiercely independent kind of guy and rather proud of it,” Franks said. Still undecided on a presidential candidate, General Franks says he is leaning towards Bush but sees Kerry as a patriot and "absolutely" qualified to serve as commander-in-chief. Franks also slammed those criticizing Kerry's military record calling it "political hyperbole". Noting the lines drawn between the two parties in an election year, Franks also noted that he believes life really is some place between the two. General Franks, independent voter, we salute your right to choose without having to join a party.
