WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld underwent elective surgery Tuesday morning for a torn rotator cuff in his left shoulder, Pentagon officials said.

He underwent the two-hour operation under local anesthetic and briefly transferred power to Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England, officials said.

The defense chief is expected back on the job Wednesday.

1. Tore a muscle either patting himself on the back, or

was it from his wanking off at how he and his cabal are raping America? Inquiring minds want to know!

[acmavm]

4. I'll go with both your suggestions plus raise you 'hurling the

propaganda'.

[krispos42]

10. LMAO that's a good one! n/t

[TechBear_Seattle]

14. "Hurling the propaganda" :toast: n/t

[CBHagman]

17. You read my first thought, TechBear.

Or perhaps it's Post-Strutting and Preening Disorder.

[Anakin Skywalker]

26. LOL! Funny.

[Hand]

2. I hope that he's in excruciating pain...

...not that I would really gain anything by that, but it's a pleasant thought. :evilgrin:

[gratuitous]

3. Patting himself on the back too much?

Maybe they could surgically remove his head from his ass while they're at it, then remove his foot from his mouth?

[hobbit709]

15. It takes a real contortionist

to put your foot in your mouth while your head is up your ass.

[paparush]

5. Too Many Seig Heils!!!

[Virginia Dare]

6. Probably an old tennis injury...

being rich has it's pitfalls as well. :nopity:

[mcscajun]

7. :::YAWN:::

Whoop-dee-fucking-do. His shoulder hurts. Boo-hoo.

A minor injury...hardly worthy of a news item, 'cept there'd be so much yakking if he just "mysteriously vanished" for a few days.

Would that he would vanish...permanently.

12. I thought it was a pretext to get rid of him

A Rovian plot to get Rummy out without looking week. VonRumsfeld gets surgery, then has to resign due to medical reasons. But the crusty bastard keeps bouncing back!

[peace13]

8. He would have to show me the incision

for me to believe a word he says!

[libodem]

9. hope the surgeon slips

and cuts off his head. That a-hole is evil incarnate.

[TheCowsCameHome]

11. Probably from flipping off the American people.

Hope they had to go straight through his head to repair it.

[jseankil]

13. Hope his arm is amputated so he can see how an Iraqi war Vet feels. /nm

16. They're implanting another CHIP

The current chip on his shoulder is not big enough.

:rofl:

[DeadManInc]

18. He needs a brain transplant, the current one is

really fucked!

[no_hypocrisy]

19. Obviously not a war injury . . . n/t

[KamaAina]

20. Good thing it's not heart surgery

at least we know he HAS a shoulder :evilgrin:

[BrokenBeyondRepair]

21. hope it's painful.. and

will be crossing fingers for complications;

[BigDDem]

22. If his shoulder doesn't heal

the terrorists win.

[classysassy]

23. Hello Doc

while you have the slick,very sick mind in the hospital,see if he has a brain.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

24. Meanwhile * pulls a Haig, grabs a mike and proclaims

"I'm in charge!" while everybody else in the room quietly groans and wishes he'd just shut up and pop a few more of his little pills.

[Xenotime]

25. It gets harder and harder to fling the shit that he does.

That's what happened.
