Rumsfeld Gets Icy Treatment in Taos

Donald Rumsfeld is welcome here in Chaffee County.

It's a lot nicer here than in any part of New Mexico.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

I know I'm going out on a limb here (snicker), but my hunch is that this guy has never done a hard day of work in his life.

"When the teenagers' father brushed past me I said, "Now's your chance ­ you can tell Rumsfeld what you think of him." He calmly smiled and said "Actually I think he's done a great job."

Good one!

[upsdriver]

Geez, what an ugly woman!

[zendari]

It's a shame.

I've met Bill Clinton, he came to our local Sam's Club to sell his book.

I bought a copy, got it signed, shook his hand, and said "While I didn't agree with most of your politics, I thank you for your service to this country."

You have to be a real punk to pull a stunt like this, especially calling in the "reinforcements"

He's a maroon. But the ABQ Journal should be ashamed for not reporting about this *sshole's radical activism.

If General Patton thought for a moment that he was destroying the German Army to save America for the benefit of hateful little communist twits like Jeff Conant, he would have turned the job over to the French rather than risk another good American soldier's life.

What an obnoxious, ignorant, self-important pile of dog droppings he is. I'd deport him to Canada, but their left-wing a$$hole quota has apparently been filled for years now.

[Bernard Marx]

Typical self-inflated liberals who think their "righteousness" gives them a right to be uncivil. All it really does is reveal the daddy-issues that drives a lot of the left-wing.

That's exactly right IMO. Most are immature, narcissistic children.

After serving this country for the majority of his life - Donald Rumsfeld is an American Hero, unlike the slithering snake you showed yourself to be. What, 2 women coming your direction at Taos scared you so bad you went running away? lololol He would be welcome anywhere but with a bunch of liberal loons that live there!

HE DID NOT START THIS WAR and the TROOPS that served under him have WONDERFUL respect for him. Maybe your momma forgot to teach the basics .... RESPECT of your elders!

Especially when telling the story and exaggerating your bravery in the face of "evil" gets you laid by little Leftist Media Groupies for weeks on end - which I expect was Conant's real motivation in confronting Rumsfeld.

By Jupiter, you may have a point there!

"Ooohhhh...," twittered the young groupies (most not old enough to legally order at the bar), "tells us again how you stood up to Rummy..."

[grey_whiskers]

but as soon as what he perceived to be a couple of healthy female SS agents start toward him he beats a hasty retreat.

Must've been the Admin Moderators!

Full Disclosure: if they were approaching me, I wouldn't retreat [well, it depends on if my wife was watching ;-) ]

Cheers!

[grey_whiskers]

Oops, forgot to ping you.

Courtesy *PING*! :-)

Cheers!

"You can just tell that Jeff would enjoy women's underwear over his head."

Whose? Angie Everhart's or Helen Thomas's?

Cheers!

Leftists have the mentality of totalitarians. They can't tolerate anyone who disagrees with them. They lack the grace to leave someone else alone.

[My Favorite Headache]

Boy Jeff...YOU SURE DID YOUR PART! Big tough Liberal Pussy!

[popdonnelly]

Taos is full of leftwing, artsy-fartsy people.

I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I

Just full of himself, isn't he? I didn't know until now that an asshole could walk, talk, and ski.

[popdonnelly]

"I think there's people in Iraq who'd like to talk to him."

Yeah, they'd like to thank him, unlike the garbage that lives in this country.

I don't know, making a "ummph, ummph, ummph" sound with a mouthful of pillow does rhyme, at least.
