Because last week, the electorate had not spoken. Boortz was talking about the election results being a "well-deserved kick" and perhaps SecDef Rumsfeld did not like being the kickee. I'm sorry he will not stay on to fight the fight that sadly is needed over the next two years. Maybe the thinking is that the confirmation process will delay the gutting of the military agenda that the RATs are warming up in the green room. We have no right asking Rummy to endure that. Thanks Boortz and the Cut and Run Republicans.
I sure guess we showed those republicans! /drippingsarc
This country just signed it's own death warrant...mark my words, we will have trouble like never before...
I actually think Rummy said there is no way he can work hand in hand with democraps....and quit.
