Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
huh..when when when, hafat check some news sites.
is he scared of the scrutiny he may have to face?
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
With House & Senate controlled by Dems the Iraq war is no longer allowed to stay the course.
And the investigations would have brought him down anyways.
Replacement:
Baker might be the man, Lieberman is possible.
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
He is "stepping" down :D
abcnews.com will show BUSH speech in next 2-3 min live on their site .... logon !!!! game on
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
Robert Gates is actually replacement.
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
Gates, former head of CIA.
Are we suprised?
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
This could really change the face of the 'war on terror'. Time to take it away from the DOD and push it towards CIA (aka Kerry Plan)
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
Who? Anyone know much about this guy?
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
It might now actually become a "war on terror" instead of a "war of terror".
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
Yes, he was cloned a couple years ago from a patch of skin from Dick Cheney. You'll love him.
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
if he is a cheney clone, i guess he would be hiding in a bunker somewhere as well?
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
bush is making no sense in press conference specially on the question "Mr President, you said a week ago that Rumsfield is not going, and he will stay for next 2 years" and bus is doing aeen-baeen-shaeen :)
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
Freezer. He is being microwaved and electroshocked as we speak.....
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!

He (Bush) is razzled as hell, and he should be.
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
No, the fact that he bounced Rumsfeld so fast means he knew this was coming and had a plan. Rumsfeld would have been the favorite target of the Dems in the house. Bush just removed the red flag from in front of the bulls. Good move, take away the lightning rod.
Let's not get all giddy about the election. The first 100 days of the new Congress will tell us a lot, but there will be a lot of vetos. Not much is really going to change, unless Congress votes to cut military funding for Iraq. That would kill 08 for them. Gridlock, nothing more.
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
The first 100 hours will tell us a lot OG.
Sad it took an election 'thumping' to get rid of such a failure as Rumsfeld, 'the stay the course' has ruined Bush's credibilty and every judgement is seen as questionable, and rightly so.
Bush seems to final realize that the rug has been pulled from under him, lot of raw emotion coming out...nice digg at Rove, lol.
Re: RUMSFELD IS OUT!
I am fine with gridlock, keeps the market strong, gives me my million dollars.
