Was he forced out because he stood in the way of Bush's plans to start another war before the next election?

Let's see if there are any others, in various branches of the service. I don't buy the idea that an admiral would resign over a mere misimpression by the media.
I've been telling people for many months not to worry about a war with Iran unless general officers begin resigning in numbers. Let's hope this isn't the canary in the mine dying. If Bush invades Iran, the USA (among many others) is screwed.
