That is a beautiful post!! LOL!
Why, thank you.
I have a huge amount of respect for Rumsfeld. I have read several books on him including a business book called "The Rumsfeld Way".
Whether you think he is taking the right approach to transforming the military (I think he is correct) you have to admit that he says what he means, means what he says, and is willing to work his butt off on behalf of whatever task he is given.
I think he is a patriot of the highest order, the best Secretary of Defense this country has ever seen, and I would vote for him for President of the United States in a heartbeat. I would offer to work his campaign up here in Massachusetts, even though I know in advance it would be doomed to failure in this state, I would do it anyway.
A real Man's Man.
