I demand that they find the individual or individuals that leaked this thing!!! Who leaked these pictures?

I have asked that over and over for days and have even done searches for related articles; and not one so called journalist that I can find or even anyone on this committee has asked that question.

Confidentiality BS you know!!

If these were held since January, then we can probably guess they why they were saved til now. So just picture a late night meeting with some powerful people in a D.C. hotel room or townehouse serving up this next Democratic strategic move. They said it would get dirty..but these people, whoever they are, might be considered more dangerous to this Country then any outside terrorist.

A visible livid Rummy says: "That's probable."

No, Rumsfeld said "possible". Big difference.

What should they use?

Rumsfield is not a democrat, he has more grit, spine, class

Sweetie.

Good news - Washington Post article says most Americans want Rumsfeld to stay.

Just jumping in here, I missed Bayh's screed (yay) but Rummy was right I think, to acknowlege the possibility that he could be replaced.

To not do that would have seemed cockey. I'm sure it sounded disconcerting but remember what the President has said.

If I moved just 30 miles north, Saxby would be my senator - but I'm stayin' in Florida for now, because I think GWB needs my vote here in November.

But, Lordy, I despise my senators.

NO WAY, Rummy is no quiter, he never has and never will. These democRAT Jackels in Congress do not have the smarts to frustrate Rummy enough to get him to quit

This is backfiring on the media......

Did you ever doubt they'd take this and march right off the cliff with it? They just can't help themselves - they see George Bush's picture or hear his name, and they just wildly charge in a blind rage.

Okay, possible--sorry, I misheard. In any event, the answer was more telling than the question IMHO. He was p****ed!

Call Dept of Defense Comment Line

(703) 428-0711

I just called and told them I supported Secretary Rumsfeld and that I did not see a need for his resignation. The operator sounded very surprised that I had a positive comment.

"People" like Rangel are PRECISELY why information is kept from Congress.

That is an interesting thought.

It is most certainly against the Geneva Convention to distribute these type of photos. I am truly amazed that any of our trained military would not have recognized that.

I would be very surprised if the Old Media did not realize that... It sure would be nice to know if they could be held somehow liable for doing so.
