thank god he finally answered the clue phone and got a wakeup call
I think it might take a couple of more calls cause he's still asleep at the wheel so to speak.

took the words right out of my mouth. it's cut and run when DEMS do it. It's stepping down when Rummy does it.Didn't Rumsfeld perpetuate the idea that DEMS were "cut and run"?
I like to think of it as a 'pack up your shit' and 'get the fuck out of here' known.Do you think Rumsfeld knew he was going to get axed?
Was that a known unknown, or and unknown unknown?
I have to believe there are more than of a couple of former republican congressmen who are thinking too little too late. Especailly since Bush just said he talked to Gates down at the ranch on Sunday. If he was going to make the move why wait?
Dubya's speech just floored me. He lied to the 3 reporters who questioned him about Rummy last week. Then he lied (and badly) about lying to them, all the while lying to us.
Clinton lied once during his administration and was impeached. Bush has lied all along (WMDs, Al Qaeda in Iraq etc) and three times during just this one speech.
Yet there are still people who support and respect him.
Mendacity like beauty must be in the eye of the beholder.
Definitely!
I was going to start a thread on this and was composing my post when I lost my connection. My theme was going to be "Bush proves he's no politician". If he'd come out with this four days earlier, he might still have the Senate, and a few more congresscritters.
Then he tries to make like he's being noble, not wanting to influence the election by announcing the decision -- do we believe he's that dense, or call it spin by his handlers?

Here it is....
In case you missed it - a "tribute" to Rummy...
Buh-Bye...!
