He has more honor, empathy and patriotism than any of his critics.

Rumsfeld makes surprise visit to site of insurgents'attack on base

By ROBERT BURNS
AP Military Writer

MOSUL, Iraq (AP) - U.S. Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld arrived here before dawn Friday amid tight security at an air base in northern Iraq where an insurgent's attack on a military dining hall killed 14 U.S. troops and eight others earlier this week.

Hoping to raise holiday spirits and demonstrate compassion for soldiers' sacrifices, Rumsfeld landed in darkness and walked immediately from his plane to a combat surgical hospital where many of the bombing victims were treated. The most seriously wounded already have been transferred to a U.S. military hospital in Germany.

I say this in a good way. They'll sure enjoy the visit in light of recent events. He is well liked in the ranks of the military establishment.

the man of integrity acts on his convictions.

meanwhile, the weasel media sit in their offices and churn out anti-american propaganda.
