WASHINGTON, Dec. 19 — Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has decided to personally sign condolence letters to the family members of U.S. troops killed in action rather than letting a machine affix his signature.
Republican and Democratic members of Congress criticized the embattled Pentagon chief on Sunday for not signing the letters himself all along.

But he is going to fix that... (Right??)
Rep. Roy Blunt of Missouri, the third-ranking Republican in the House said on CNN's ''Late Edition'' that ''signing the letter is a mechanical but an important thing.''
''It's better for him to do it and he's acknowledged that. It was a mistake and it was a mistake that he's now said he will rectify,'' Blunt said.

1. I hope that Rumsfeld stays "embattled" for some time.

It may be one of the few consolations I get out of all this.
