the interesting thing about this story is that it appears to come from the right--the way it is framed, the way the argument runs--it seems to represent a wedge of republicans disaffected with the legion of problems rumsfeld poses for them. so i do not see it as coming from opponents of the war--i see this as coming from internal opposition to the particular directions that rumsfeld represents, and to rumsfeld himself.
i do not understand bush's support for this clown--unless he functions to divert criticism from bush himself over the various debacles this administration has embroiled the state in over the past 3 years....in which case rumsfeld is useful for publicity purposes.
