Two questions for all well informed Freepers regarding Rumsfeld. 1. Does anyone know the reason for the cast? I haven't heard anything. 2. He used to do press conferences almost every day, but C-span doesn't have them very often. Is he doing fewer press conferences, or is C-span ignoring them?

1. See Post #115
2. He usually did 2 press conferences a week but has slowed down a bit.
3. Today he testified before a Senate Committee:

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld holds up a binder holding the 700-page Start 1 Treaty signed in 1991 by the first President Bush and Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev as he testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Wednesday, July 17, 2002 at the Capitol in Washington. The treaty took nine years to negotiate. Rumsfeld's hand is in a cast after a recent operation. He later held up and compared the treaty to the Moscow Treaty signed by Russian President Vladimir Putin and the current President Bush. The new treaty is three pages long and took six months to negotiate. (AP Photo/Joe Marquette)
