Your trashing of SecDef Rumsfeld is uncalled for! Why don't you ask the people at Tinker AFB what they think of Rumsfeld -- they have total respect for him and for Vice President Cheney and President Bush!

BTW your one post doesn't match your second one to me!

I hope I'm wrong about Rummy.

Alas, others wiser than I have indicated privately that they are convinced I'm not wrong.

In any case, I do pray for him. I hope he's 100% on the side of God, country and right. I'd love for my hunches about him to be wrong.

But Tinker Air Force base personnel are only human, too. We can all be fooled by appearances etc. Life is getting curiouser and curiouser in our era. God alone knows where the mirrors and smoke start and stop.

Maybe I'll call my friend and see if I can get any more out of him on the phone than I can get out of him on email.

He seems particularly tight lipped for some reason about Rummy.

But he has indicated that personality-wise, I'm not far off about Rummy's personality--but then, that's evident on TV often enough. He doesn't seem to hide much of his personality.
