Rummy Admonishes ~ Knows Whereof He Speaks, But Remains Fundamentally Obtuse

"Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld warned yesterday that 'moral and intellectual confusion' over the Iraq war and the broader anti-terrorism effort could sap American willpower and divide the country, and he urged renewed resolve to confront extremists waging' a new type of fascism.'

Has anyone else ever noticed that seriously messed-up & stressed out people tend to try to disown & project their own traits onto others, who they then proceed to try to punish for the perceived wrong? What is up with that, anyway?

"With polls showing that a majority of Americans believe it was a mistake for the United States to invade Iraq and with many Democrats calling for a deadline for withdrawing U.S. troops, Rumsfeld called the Iraq war the 'epicenter' of the struggle against terrorism. Last week, Bush said that setting a timetable for a troop withdrawal would embolden the enemy and cause chaos in Iraq and throughout the region. " (Title bar.)

Uh, George, we liberal commie tree-hugging war weenies have no reason to advocate anything that would "embolden the enemy & cause chaos" in Iraq. You, Bush & Cheney are doing an admirable job of that yourselves.

I'm with Ted Kennedy: "The only person confused about how to best protect this country is Don Rumsfeld, which is why he must go."
