Really? Then why isn't Rummy still SECDEF if he did such a "heckuva job"?
Well, check your tagline. He is the boss.
Because Bush threw him under the bus at the same time as he threw the conservative base under the same bus.
Remember that day, when Bush announced he was grateful for the chance to work with Democrats on Amnesty ? The day in January that he had Pelosi and Reid over for a little cozy chat at the White House ?
Because President Bush gave the rats the sacrifice that they wanted.

Because George Bush is a pandering weenie who threw him under the bus?
Look at his replacement. Gates is yet another one in Bush’s administration who “feels” that world opinion is more important than American sovereignty or safety.
Please detail all of Rummy's missteps for us.
You could substitute Rummy's name for anyone in history and get the same result and the same answer : Democrats who have no desire to see our country win no matter where we are or what the urgency is.
Kinda like a winning head football coach with a coaching staff dedicated to throwing the game so they can take over when the head coach is tossed out.
He was not a bad SECDEF. Because he wasn't perfect, some people want to throw stones at him. Well that is horsecrap in my opinion.
How many cabinet-level officials have ever served all eight years of a two-term presidency in the same job?
Because the Democrats are out to take down the Bush administration brick by brick, no matter who has to die, and because of you "protest voters" they won the majority in both the house and senate. Don't insult our intelligence with a herb-induced fantasy of utter brillaince and clear thinking.
Because after the longest term of any Sec Defense he was tired of having to listen to the idiot rantings of Dincon morons who know absolutely NOTHING about Iraq but still cling arrogantly to their Do Nothing 09-10-01 political dogmas.
