In defense of Donald Rumsfeld
He is really a nice guy. I would say he is misunderstood.

3. Most serial killers are described the same way.
I'm sure he's real quiet too.

13. He is not killer. He is an American hero.
Pray for him too.

8. Rumsfeld was considered a dove in the Nixon administration
That was one reason he lost his job at OEE I really don't know when he became pure neo-con. Pure evil by 1980 to be sure.

-snip-

And it shows him to be a savvy political operator, who, while not involved in Watergate, "was not nearly so marginal a figure in Nixon's political apparatus as he was later portrayed." From today's perspective, perhaps the most unexpected revelation about Rumsfeld is that when it came to the Vietnam War, Rumsfeld was a dove, not a hawk—a fact that led Nixon to talk openly among his aides about "dumping" Rumsfeld.

9. It appears that Bleachers 7
is on a posting frenzy. "Meat", then "Fur", then "breastfeeding", and now "Ole Rum-Filled".

Let's see...is there any connection between these 4? Nope, I guess it was just a random grouping.

12. Damn right! And every Dean supporter can kiss my American Ass!
Glad to see there's at least one patriotic, America-loving troops supporter here in the DU!

God bless Dick Cheney and his sacrifices!

16. You've got to be kidding! It's Halloween not...
April's Fool. He is one, if not the most despicable players in BFEE. I will never forget Shock and Awe, Rummy looked like he was gonna have an orgasm everytime he described the bombing of Baghdad in the early days. Rethink your statement, if you will.
