and maybe there are more important things going on.
I agree, there are - but I also think Angus Houston and his Staff Officers can walk and chew gum at the same time. They use private jets (freeing them up so they can have meetings in the sky), have drivers waiting for them on the ground (so they can use cell phones or discuss matters whilst on the road), they have dedicated Personal Assistants, large offices with attached conference rooms in different cities, runners, Officers' Clubs, etc, etc.The problem is that very few citizens make them accountable for their compensation packages and perks.
