I am glad you like how they have handled it. I agree.

As for Rumsfeld I have mixed feelings. I really like the guy. The Economist is now calling for him to resign. You should have a look at it. It makes some interesting points.

I agree that there are many good and valid arguments that Rumsfeld should take this bullet for the president. That is also LOYALTY. It would send and umistakable signal around the world. Send Rumsfeld to the World Bank. It's been done before :-)

But, cynically in an election year I doubt it is going to happen. The democrats would be all over it (In fact they will (and are) all over it already).

Rummy's been one of my favorites in the admin and it's killing me to see him most likely losing the job.

Rummy might be let go soon. If so, then blammo Bush is done cause it'll put the entire war effort into the realm of 'it was all a mistake to listen to Rummy'.

If Rummy stays, all the calls for him to resign are going to build for awhile, and I'm not sure if Bush is strong enough in the election to absorb it now.

Please, nobody bother to respond unless you actually debate my ideas, no more attacks on me.
