Good riddance, Ronald Dumbsfeld!

You think they'll go after Gregg Williams now?

What a punkass, stepping down because the writing is on the wall with the democrats taking control. Talk about 'cut and run'.

There's something really satisfying about seeing the Republicans sweating today.

That's what I was thinking. I heard it was because he was going to face charges. What a puss.

Re: Rumsfeld stepping down
 

Rumsfeld knew it was all over when Bush walked into his office and said, "Rummy, you're doin' a heck'av a job..."

Re: Rumsfeld stepping down
 

No shit, That kind of suprises me.

I'm curious is to why It wasn't sooner...

Theres going to be some major policy changes coming. It kind of makes me nervous... I really think this war issue needs to be taken seriously, and not influenced by the fickle public opinion. Kind of worries me.

The morons on the Hill, as well as Dubya's buddy who's taking over for Rummy, all know that the worst thing we can do is pull directly out of Iraq. At least I hope so...

One ot eh guys I was tailgating with on Sunday just got home from Iraq. He'd been there most recently as a civilian contractor, but he was also previously there with the USMC. He said he can't imagine the US pulling out for a few [I]decades[/I] and he said that the military is currently building at least 3 permanent bases in Iraq.

this is almost as gratifying as the skins winning. lets get someone who will look after us common, ordinary folk. i bet you the big business of america is pissed right now

Re: Rumsfeld stepping down
 

Can anyone name a Politician who looks after the 'common, ordinary folk'.

Sadly the whole political scene seems to poison the people involved.

Am I just that cynical?

Re: Rumsfeld stepping down
 

No, that seems about the jist of it. It's like I always feel the people are involved only for personal gain anyway.
