Prominent Democrat Calls For Rumsfeld To Resign
http://www.news4jax.com/politics/2614217/detail.html

<snip>
New York U.S. Rep. Charles Rangel, a Korean War veteran, said he reluctantly came to that conclusion. He said it has become very clear that the Pentagon doesn't have a strategy for getting U.S. troops out of Iraq.

He said that just worsens the impact of what he describes as the administration's miscalculations leading up to the war.
<snip>

Short piece with poll.

Go Charlie!

3. He should only be the first to go
As war-mongers go, this Defense team is truly clueless!

4. Answered the poll
52% say Rummy should resign, 48% no. More pressure on the administration! It would appear they are being hit from many sides. It is going to get confusing for them to keep up with their lies pretty soon.

8. Yeah, I bet it was hard for him to reach that conclusion...
Probably the hardest point was not dancing with glee as he said it. Rangel's one of my favorite Democrats, and I doubt he's liked anything Rumsfield has done since being born.

Well presented, though. "Gee, you know it really, really, really is hard for me to say this (supress chuckle, act like it was a heavy sigh), but I think the time has come for Rumfuc... Um (fake cough) Secretary Rumsf... (fake cough) field to resign, for the good of the nation (AND BECAUSE HE"S A MURDERING INSANE PIECE OF CRAP!!!!... Gee I hope I didn't say that out loud...). Cough. It really pains me (in places I won't mention) to have to say it (SINCE HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN LOCKED UP LONG AGO ANYWAY!!!)...."

Just my impression. Or maybe my own thoughts.

12. Why aren't they calling for Bush and Cheney to resign. THEY started
the illegal, immoral invasion. Rumsfeld didn't.
