A GQ piece on Donald Rumsfeld has been making the rounds lately and boy is it ever juicy. Long story short: he's an asshole and everyone hates him. The one Bush administration official who didn't want this guy to run across a rabid bear from the get-go was, unsurprisingly, Bush himself ...
Rumsfeld was aware (like we all are) that our last President is a religious man who is wholly incapable of putting his Christianity into context. Rummy carried on and expanded a tradition of handing over classified reports on the Middle East ... covered in Bible quotes. Question: was anyone, anywhere, ever naïve enough to think that Bush was an actual statesman making logical, calculated decisions about the real world? Oh really, like half the country? We are so screwed.
The slideshow must be seen to be believed. The cover pages of the document that was "a daily digest of critical military intelligence so classified that it circulated among only a handful of Pentagon leaders and the president" looked like they were shat from a Kirkland's catalog ...
... Couldn't someone have at least maintained some font consistency?
