The United States could afford a Bill Clinton or an Al Gore during a time of peace and prosperity.

Except that we weren't at peace.

Rumsfeld is merely a particularly apt representative of the manliness that suffuses the Bush administration as a whole

I agree with this.

"but there is a real danger that these goals will be attained at the cost of a dispirited and demoralized army."

I would wonder about the truthfulness of this statement. Anybody else out there care to comment???

I read the Decter book..Rumsfeld: A Personal Portrait. Also, The Rumsfeld Way by Jeffrey A. Krames. Both are good, personally I liked Krames best.

Knowing you are a Rummy fan I thought you might like to read these books.
