Hey, Rummy: Screw you.
I'm so sick of hearing this bullshit from these punks. I love this country, I support the fine folks in the military who are doing a difficult job.
I loathe the bastards who are gutting this country like a trout. That includes you, Rumsfeld. You're the goddamn traitor as far as I'm concerned. And I have a right to my opinion - as much as deranged fascists like yourself want to take that right away from me.
Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said on Monday opposition to the U.S. President was encouraging Washington's enemies and hindering his 'war against terrorism'. Rumsfeld was speaking after a trip to Afghanistan and Iraq where he sought to highlight progress on reconstruction efforts and dampen criticism of the U.S. presence there and the almost daily casualties in a guerrilla campaign against occupation.
He said if Washington's enemies believed Bush might waver or his opponents prevail, that could increase support for their activities.
"They take heart in that and that leads to more money going into these activities or that leads to more recruits or that leads to more encouragement or that leads to more staying power," he told reporters traveling with him on his plane.
Howzabout you take your opinion and stick it up your decaying ass, you decrepit, insane old fool?

Am I in an echo chamber? I seem to recall these same arguments waaay back in the late '60s with respect to that other Great Crusade, Operation Vietnam Freedom.
Oh, that's right, Iraq is not Vietnam. No similarities whatsoever.

Bwahahaha! Yes, Rummy, fear us!
Us EEEVVVVILLL bloggers and chattering commentariat, hunched over our keyboards, venting our rhetorical speen at your misadventures. WE will make you FAIL!
We have you in our power! We are STRONGER than the MOST POWERFUL MILITARY FORCE ON THE PLANET! Can't you feel our words sapping your power?
And if you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you, too...

well, theoretically, in a democracy, public opinion is supposed to be more powerfull than any army, so donald ducksfeld has one thing right. the problem is that this is a democracy in name alone, and because of this we have fascists telling us that our opinions are hurting the war effort, when what they should be telling us is that our opinions are ENDING the war effort. that would be a democracy in more than just name. i bet the iraqis are looking foreward to american style democracy, where their opinions dont count for anything, elections are stolen, and big corporations controll every aspect of their lives. that sounds so much different than the form of government that we "liberated" them from, where their opinions were illegal, the elections were rigged, and one nutcase controlled every aspect of their lives, doesnt it? it wasnt the basic structure of saddams government that we had a problem with, aparently it was just a matter of degrees. "you shouldnt do that.....quite as much".

Yeah, I read that Rumsfield comment in the L.A. Times this morning. Thankfully, it was buried in the middle of the paper....
Statements like his are dangerous and should not be ignored. We don't live under a dictatorship. Making people scared to utilize their right to speak against the actions of their government is abhorrent.

i don't think it's good to wish terminal illness on anyone, even rummy.
that would just let him off the hook from getting the legal, constitutionally supported punishment he and his associates so richly deserve.

yeah, i guess i probobly dont have to wish terminal illness on rummy, if there is anything near karma he already has one anyway. im all for giving the entire bush administration their constitutionally supported punishment. i just have no faith that it will happen. more likely, just like evey other atrocity in this country's history, it will simply be one more thing we are afraid/ashamed to teach our children in history class

Hey, Justin, you want to gaze into my crystal ball and see Rumsfeld's future? Look closely into the glass, closer...closer...
The smoke clears --- and it's Henry Kissinger! Yup, Rumsfeld will probably sit on the board of a prestigious think tank (AEI or Heritage), sit on the boards of a number of Fortune 500 companies, write a few best-selling books, appear as a commentator on Fox News, become a syndicated newspaper columnist, etc. Believe me, this guy will never want for anything.
Then he'll die at age 103, ascend immediately to Heaven where he'll be personally greeted by a middle-aged, male, Caucasian Judeo-Christian god who will then turn around and visit a plague of locusts on all lefties, liberals, pro-lifers, feminists, environmentalists, uppity dark-skinned people, anti-war activists, gays, lesbians, jazz musicians... Well, I think you get the picture.
Life just sucks, doesn't it?

which is why im wishing for his slow painfull death from some horrible disease, because i have no faith that there is any justice in the universe. maybe it is punishment enough to live with his conscience, but im not sure republicans even have those. i would love to believe that there is some punishment awaiting him in the afterlife, but i somewhat doubt there is an afterlife. maybe everything these fucking nazis have done will be made public in my lifetime, if not in his, and that will at least be some vindication

Bush, in his address to the nation, stated that there are 29 countries involved with us in the coalition. Rumsfeld today stated that there are 90. Think they'll ever get their facts straight?
