I just heard about this on Fox...
I am SO glad Rummy went...I am sure there will be a lot of troops who will be sad to see him go...
Prayers for Rummy..
Godspeed, Secretary Rumsfeld. Enjoy yourself.
Rumsfeld was Bush's best cabinet appointement. Too bad he threw him to the Dem/MSM wolves. I lost a lot of respect for Bush in the way it was handled and why it was done.
Secretary Rumsfeld is a great American.
We owe him thanks for visiting the troops and for his many years of service to our country.
One hellava guy, and how we could use more..
FoxNews said Sean Hannity is with him.
He said Friday that the worst day of his nearly six years as secretary of defense occurred when he learned of the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse.It was a bad day for us all. It was a day when the left got the upper hand in the debate in the media.
Look, I hate to be brutally honest but, we need about 100,000 more troops in Iraq. When they get there, they need to start killing people and blowing stuff up immediately. The message has just got to get out to the guilty, the innocent, and the unlucky: The US is in charge and this is the way its going to be. This is what we did in Jpan and Germany. Until that day comes, we're are blowing in the wind.
Osama Bin Laden was right. We're so soft, so civilized, so 'educated' that we don't have the nerve to bring a gun to a knife fight.
We're losing because we deserve to lose.
COOL rack it I just hear tail end of the story but I have go out rack Rummy
The nation is grateful for his extradordinary service.
Thank you for your loooong service to our Nation, Secretary Rumsfeld.
I look forward to your memoirs and lectures once you free yourself from the swamp!
This news combined with the leftists in America taking "charge" is enough to make one go off unclear.
Very unclear, SoYcD
Let's hope Bush pays a visit to the troops in Iraq over Christmas.

From a grateful patriot, thank you Mr. Secretary. Your candor, wit, and experience will be sorely missed.
Are they still going to investigate him in Congress? Maybe now they will just do real work, since they have eliminated Rumsfeld and Bolton and have weakened Pres. Bush in re-gaining control of both Houses. It's one thing to threaten all these investigations when they're impossible to pursue, another thing entirely to actually waste political capital doing them.
It was very kind and honorable for Rumsfeld to visit the troops and it must mean a lot to them. Time will probably prove him to be a great Sec./Defense, as it will prove Pres. Bush to be a great, courageous leader.
A Class Act.
Rumsfeld Thanks Troops for Service, Calls for U.S. Patience

Thank you, Secretary Rumsfeld for your sacrificial service for your country.
I'm sure the troops will be thrilled to see you one last time......
