When His Lips Move
WHEN HIS LIPS MOVE....Fred Kaplan warns us not to trust a single word that Donald Rumsfeld writes:
During his six years as defense secretary, Rumsfeld famously wrote hundreds, maybe thousands, of memos to subordinates — they fell so rapidly from on high that his aides called them "snowflakes." According to several officials, many of these snowflakes contradicted one another; he seemed to be staking out several positions on key issues so that he could later claim that he'd taken the right side. In his forthcoming memoirs, he will no doubt quote chapter and verse from just the right snowflakes. Readers, be forewarned — he's blotting out the full storm.
Read the whole thing. He's already got a couple of examples and Rumsfeld's book hasn't even been written yet.
I can't help it.
Rumsfeld was for it while he was against it.
A civil war in wignuttery! What fun! [munching popcorn]
Someone have the snowflakes he wrote on September 11th?
I shan't be reading any of the books written by these criminals. What a waste of time. I never trusted them and never will, no matter what they say.
It'll have to come from a more neutral source. Or a vindictive one.
"When his lips move"
Could as easily refer to Kaplan?
I think you are thinking of a different Kaplan flubber. Thus guy really knows his stuff. Not the surge promoting Kaplan.
Ah, that's probably right - I remember now there are a few Kaplan pundits out there.
And it seems like only yesterday the bookstore was full of "Rumsfeld is a Genius" books. Now, they're not even remainders. As a lover of trees, I am saddened by this waste.
As a lover of my country, I am outraged that this motherfucker isn't rotting in jail.
