OOOPS! Forgot to mention the Deputy Secretary of Defense is Paul Wolfowitz.

Did you see yesterday when they asked the General about troops and he was stuck for an answer and finally looked at Rumsfield and he said something like "They said General not Secretary." They both laughed and the question was completely avoided.

"It is therefore urgent that all Americans be quiet, stop asking questions, accept the orders of authorities, and let us get on with the important work of defending liberty, so that America can continue to be a beacon of freedom to all the world."

Donald Rumsfeld -- October 9

Savor the facist undertones! In other words he's saying, "shut up and fall in line". Afterall, if you aren't with them, you're with the terrorist -- there is no middle ground.

I guess this batch was too bitter for the conoseuir.

If you mix it with a drop of orange juice, morning is the right time to sip it.

i wonder if i'm the only woman who finds sec. rumsfeld a mega-babe. i know there are cheney chicks....but what about don?

RUMSFELD: You know, in this world of ours, if you get up in the morning, you're running a risk of having someone lie and someone mischaracterize what it is you are doing.

I'll take four cases of that answer.

Reminds me of:" Either lead, follow, or stay the Hell out of the way."

[EllaMinnow]

I'm a Cheney chick who also thinks Don is a total mega-babe!

Now if we could just get rid of Stephanopolous (a cheap near beer), and Bill Clinton (a screwtop, rancid Thunderbird), it could stay that way!

Don't forget Colin Powell (a very cheap and traumatized watery light beer).

I really think Rumsfeld gets it. Wouldn´t surprise me if he was a freeper.

Wish there was a way we could show our support for him.

[jackbill]

Can you even begin to imagine an operation like this with the former Sec. of Defense Cohen? Doesn't it just want to make you gag. Him and his bag of sugar (anthrax).

[hillsborofox]

Get in line, ladies. Did you see my post #37 on this thread? The General is a major hottie! Whew!

[texasbluebell]

Guess the line forms here!

Anyone see Rumsfield's comments when asked ( I think by one of the troops) what are we going to do about CNN? His associate had to repeat the question in his ear and he paused, made several facial expressions for what seemed like a long time he was considering a smart answer tnen he finally replied "I am plucky but not stupid" it was hilarious. I haven't seen it on CNN only on Fox last night...

[texasbluebell]

Saw it, that was hilarious!
