Rummy Reads. Finds Out Civil War Caused American Deaths.
Via Think Progress comes a hysterical soundbite from outgoing Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld at a Pentagon Townhall meeting today.
QUESTION: Mr. Secretary, I’m wondering what books you read while you were secretary that you found most useful and edifying.
RUMSFELD: I started reading a number of books about the Civil War...But I stopped. I found the struggle going on — gosh, those years, there were so many people killed and wounded, and they were all Americans.
Goodness, for old Rummy's sake, let's not wait 12 days to swear in Robert Gates.

I can't escape from the feel that there is such a thing as an "American life", which, somehow values more than the "average life" of, say, an Albanian goatherder, or a German Microbiologist... It's a disgrace.

Rummy reads in shock about Civil War dead. Tsk, tsk.
So shocking.
sniff...sniff... sniff...
KA KA, POO-POO, G.O.Poopoo ANYONE??
No wonder we're in trouble:
President Bush is stuck in THE ANAL ZONE OF AGE -2.
Rummy's far-gone.
It's time to send bratty fratboy GWBush, the WAR DECIDER to Iraq as "commander in poo-poo-cheese".
Send him exactly as he is: NAKED!
For he's the Emperor with NO CLOTHES.
At least we won't see Bush "shit in his pants".
He won't have any.
I think that our soldiers boys would "take care" of Bush real good. And show him what REALITY is all about. Because, obviously, Bush has nooooooooooooo idea...
IMPEACH BUSH now.
FIRE Bush. The worse gov't employee in USA History.
