WASHINGTON (AP) - Accused of being insensitive to U.S. soldiers in Iraq and their families, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld received a fresh endorsement Monday from President Bush, who called him "a caring fellow."

"I have heard the anguish in his voice and seen his eyes when we talk about the danger in Iraq and the fact that youngsters are over there in harm's way," Bush said at a White House news conference.

Well, y'know, you go to the press with the Defense Secretary that you have, not the one that you want. :D

I see Tmy is once again expressing his rugged individualism and not following the herd.

Its the same sort of drivel i hear on Daily Show, SNL, FM Deejays, etc. Pardon me for pointing out the lack of originality and the emotional nature of the title post.

Anyone check to see if Rumsfield and his wife actually frequented the hospital to visit soldiers?

Bush assured us they did, hey, that's good enough for me.

I would say zombie; zombies feed on brains, and that would certainly explain what happened to Bush's.

By the way: "Youngsters in harm's way"? What a pussy! How about "kids getting killed and maimed". Tell it like it is, Mr Plersudunt.

Actually, the "cold dead eyes" is borrowed from the Simpsons. I sthere any proof that Rummy does care about the troops? Other than GW ironclad word.

Which probably means, in this post-modern world, that they lifted it from somewhere else.

Was it Apu, telling Homer that Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise were staring at him from the cover of People magazine?

Very good. THes Simpsons force is strong in this one.



And Rummy does have cold dead eyes. I wonder how world leaders can really sleep at night knowing they are sending all these people to their deaths.

"Kids getting killed and maimed" is the phrase used when they were killed through no obvious fault of Bush. If deaths and injuries can be traced to Bush's actions, then it's "brave young men standing in harm's way to defend freedom!"

Honestly, Dorian Gray, I'm starting to think that you might be watching something other than Fox News. What are you, a terrorist? A terrorist who hates America and its citizens? A terrorist who hates America and its citizens because you went to college where the liberal professors bullied (http://www.randi.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=50311) you? :D

A CNN poll shows that 52% of Americans want Rumsfeld to step down. That's not a mandate, right? :D

I'm getting to the point where I think Rumsfeld should stay and McCain should step down.
