Rumsfeld may Resign...

[Tellurian]

"These events occurred on my watch. As secretary of defense, I am accountable for them. I take full responsibility," Rumsfeld told the Senate Armed Services Committee (news - web sites).

At the same time, he brushed aside Democratic demands for his resignation. Asked whether he could remain effective in his post, he said if he believed he could not, "I'd resign in a minute."

"I would not resign simply because people try to make a political issue out of it," he added.

6. Looks like the link might have been truncated.

But, I can find nothing on Yahoo news that might be a resignation speculation article.

7. I provided the text of the link in the other thread...

It has since been scrubbed...

and just checking on a few other sites...

The words he said were in fact scrubbed...

So will this thread I imagine.

8. You're incredibly optimistic

if you think that a title that doesn't match a link that doesn't work is going to be kept in LBN. Here's a link:

The link you've provided doesn't go to a Yahoo Story.

Please, find the proper link and repost a paragraph or two and fix your subject header to reflect the actual headline of the published article.

Thanks.

We'll get it :)

"Asked whether he could remain effective in his post, he said if he believed he could not, "I'd resign in a minute."

My Headline encaptioned said..."Rumsfeld may resign" is for the most part accurate..

The hairsplitting begins if it is his decision to make!


forgot the link:

11. The words in the above in quotes was taken from the link but...

as you can see they have scrubbed the link..

If you think you should delete, it's fine with me..

At least there are a few witnessess to what he did say..

[Tellurian]

12. Thanks Muriel V...

I'll use your link for the fix...

and the original article:


At the same time, he brushed aside Democratic demands for his resignation. Asked whether he could remain effective in his post, he said if he believed he could not, "I'd resign in a minute."

"I would not resign simply because people try to make a political issue out of it," he added.

13. here's what you need

the headline on the story you posted is "Rumsfeld Apologizes to Iraqi Prisoners." You need to go back and re-edit your thread-starting post to reflect that.

[Tellurian]

16. You have a thread with that title already existing...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x538226




my suggestion is to forget the whole thing and let the locked thread stand as is

[NashVegas]

17. ah

okay, now I get it.

this thread is a dupe - locking

[Tiberius]

15. please make your subject the actual headline of the article

Not trying to be the DU police, but this is a pretty clear rule.

[Tellurian]

14. Incidentally, with the exception of that link any words using resignation.

have been scrubbed from all yahoo articles..


That link and those words, at he very least, should be frameable.
