Mr. Bush ultimately postponed action until after the election in part because of concern that to remove Mr. Rumsfeld earlier could be interpreted by critics as political opportunism or as ratifying their criticism of the White House war plan in the heart of the campaign, the White House insiders and outsiders said

I...I...I thought he was decisive and resolute, so if he made the decision to remove Rumsfeld in "late summer," why...why did he wait until now? Could it be that all that "resolute, decisive" (dare I say it?) stay the course, kinda leadership we heard and read about was pure Corporate Media bullshit?

Oh, nooooo!!! What's a believer to do??? :cry:
