Hey Shrub, Maj. Gen. Taguba is "brown-skinned"

How do you like us now? I know if you had your way you would have suppressed his report and shredded it!

As another brown skinned person you made me proud today!
Proud to know that it was someone with a tint to their skin that had the honor of telling the world about the abuse of other brown skinned people. You told the world with dignity.

The irony is simply magnificent! You showed the world that EVERYONE has value. You showed the world that we should not dismiss anyone because of the color of their skin.

Taguba's career in the Army spans more than three decades. A native of the Philippines, he is the son of a U.S. Army sergeant, a recipient of the Bronze Star for bravery who was captured by the Japanese in 1942 and escaped from the notorious Bataan Death March.

At age 11, Taguba moved to Hawaii with his family. "Hawaii opened my mind to the capabilities and opportunities in America," he recalled. "The diversity gave me a wide range to seek opportunities and to relate to other people."

Taguba, who was in Kuwait and could not be reached Tuesday, is an ROTC graduate of Idaho State University and received a history degree in 1972. He holds graduate degrees in public administration, international relations, and national security and strategic studies.
