If crazy Lott wants him gone what does he have left?

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

1. Rumsfeld is a marked man.

They could not ask him to leave or tell him to go, without admitting to the world that they had fucked the dog in Iraq. So, they mouthed blandishments while quietly spreading the word to their hit men to go after him and erode him.

I have $5.00 that says that within one year of him leaving, he is gonna blow it out his barrack's bag, naming names and making just a fine broughaha. After all, he does love the limelight.

[Nikepallas]

2. They are going to save him somehow. Perhaps an attempt to make

citizens think we need him in BUSHCO to keep us safe.

[Pirate Smile]

3. Since Lott got no support from the WH during his little scandal

he has been careful yet more then willing to get his little jabs in at the Administration whenever the opportunity presents itself.

[LittleClarkie]

4. I loved hearing Rush today talk about selfish Republicans

positioning themselves for 2008 runs by attacking Rumsfeld, taking advantage of Gulliani's unfortunate association with Kerik, and Rummy's snafu.

He kept trying to compare Iraq with the Battle of the Bulge, and said if people had an opinion about Iraq it should be expressed in private where it wouldn't compromise the troops.

As if this administration wasn't capable of doing that all by themselves. If anything, Hagel and McCain are trying to SAVE the troops.

[Hosnon]

6. Yea, gotta love the Repug view that if you in any way question the way

that the troops are being handled that they will hear about it and loss all morale and explode.

[daleo]

29. He would know about the Battle of the Bulge

And Hamburger Hill.

And the battle for Hill Oxycotin.

And O'Rielly is an expert in hand to hand combat.

5. If bush attaches to rumsfeld it will now be a huge liability

Rumsfeld's image is now attached to a bloody war in Iraq... Forever...

[XOKCowboy]

7. I'm surprised they didn't give him a Medal Of Freedom

The way this administration thinks. It's Bizarro World in the White House.

[RubyCat]

8. But who's going to replace him? Wolfowitz?

[Hosnon]

10. Good concern...one step at a time though. eom

[Vanje]

20. Bernard Kerik needs a job nt

m

[goodboy]

9. i think they'll circle the wagons around him again...who'd replace him

kerik?

[Lone_Star_Dem]

12. Wolfowitz?

:shrug:

[goodboy]

23. oh he's worse than rumsfeld...*shakes head* WTF?!>!>!>>!

[Lone_Star_Dem]

11. I have a feeling they are prepping for a sacrifice.

Guess who’s being led to the altar?

There are other war crazy, soulless killers out there that can fill Rumsfeld’s shoes. The GOP could lay many sins on his shoulders and cut him loose. Doing so would give them a fresh start to wage evil across the lands, and this time try not to be caught.

I don't honestly think it's reached that point yet, but it may.

[Rapcw]

13. Well u dont trade horses in the middle of a stream. n/t

:eyes:

[caligirl]

14. Hmm, Rummy sued in German courts... War Crimes.. McCain..Lott..

Rummy won't last long now. All in the same week. War Crimes and its the Germans who do him in.

[Window]

17. I agree with you.

I believe he became an even bigger liability when he fucked up during the Q&A with the service men. I think he's going this time.

[caligirl]

26. Yeah, but the sweetest part is a lowly,yet important, soldier put the

screws to him in a way Gen Gen's wouldn't.

[olddad56]

15. The owner always fires the manager when the team is losing...

The owners never fire themselves. Rest assured that the next secretary of invasions will be no better and quite possibly worse.

[Laughing Mirror]

31. Exactly

Your pithy wisdom should be underlined, uppercased and put in bold, olddad.

[cliss]

16. It's about time.

I'm saying this sincerely. These past 4 years, RumsFailed has become the symbol for this corrupt, evil administration. I've cringed, looking at his arrogant smirk. I've forced myself to look at his sadistic curled upper lip. The lines beside his mouth. Wondered when the day would dawn that we would be rid of this cockroach.

I almost want him out more than Bush and Cheney. His whiny voice, his big hands that he gestures in front of him when he wants to make a point. His poetry.....his shitty "poetry" that he circulates in the Pentagon. Can you imagine that.....army dudes, who are forced to read his shit. I've read it. I've read lots of it.

His crappy poetry sounds just like he talks. He talks in circles. And he's proud of it. He thinks he's such a fast thinker that no one else can figure out what he's up to. The way he twists words, falsifies statements, sits on the fence and hopes no one will notice. Tries to be the consummate diplomat. Keeps both sides happy.

I even called the White House this last summer when the Abu Ghraib prison scandal exploded in the news. I told them to GET HIM OUT. RIGHT NOW. The girl was polite, and she said she would forward the message.

Let it happen soon.

[lebkuchen]

18. Morale must be very low at the DoD and abroad,

among those deployed. Congress is hustling for a last-minute Xmas gift for the troops and their discontented families.

Who knows? We might even get somebody with some real military experience to replace Rummy.

[Old Mouse]

27. after Bush made job offers to Lieberman

I'm confused as to who he might pick for anything. I hope you're right about military experience.

[ScrewyRabbit]

19. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy

Asshole

[aikido15]

21. I agree

Prick.

[bhikkhu]

22. Ok, but who replaces him?

That's one of the known unknowns that I'd like to know.

[Pithy Cherub]

24. is Rumsfailed a sacrificial lamb now that could be used to

sell the * plan for extended military tours, drafts and other items. Then he's dumped like a horribly bad blind date and given no cab fare for the ride to the ex-* cabinet members retirement home? :shrug:

[porkrind]

25. I love seeing infighting among the repugs.

I hope they tear each other to shreds.

[Divine Discontent]

28. ha!

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR A NEIGHBOR, WOULD YOU BE MINE, COULD YOU BE MINE!?

I cannot WAIT for this TURD & waste of space at the Pentagon to get FLUSHED. What's funny, it's usually the guys who refuse to tow the bushco lie-ne who get axed, this time, it's his #1 butt-y. Oh PLEASE let this happen, merciful God!

our country is ARROGANT, & THAT'S why BUSH got back in!!!!!!! (well, pretty much tied the other guy, we know bushit didn't get anything better than 50.0%!)

[proudbluestater]

30. Bush has the uncanny ability to replace somebody very bad

with somebody utterly HORRIBLE. I have no hope for the next choice. Probably Wolfie. Then we could see him on his press conferences, preparing to speak as he slicks his hair back with his own spit. Careful what we wish for...
