" We're going to get it done well. We're going to get it done right. The Constitution calls for civilian control of this department. And I'm a civilian. And believe me, this place is accomplishing enormous things. We have done so much in the last two years. And it doesn't happen by standing around with your finger in your ear hoping everyone thinks that that's nice. General Myers, feel free to say anything you want. (Laughter.) "
Wowser.
That's a breathtaking quote IMHO.

I watched this as it happened today and there was one guy there that looked like he wanted to crawl under his chair while Rummy was talking about people not checking a story before running with it. It could be because he was looking right at this guy while he was talking. But the SecDef was magnificent, IMO.
