Rumsfailed-War Criminal/Liar
Absolute proof of this has been shown yet how many Dems in Congress have demanded that this creep be impeached?


Rumsfailed Admitted to Violating Geneva Convention

Rumsfailed admitted in public on TV that when CIA Director Tenet requested that an Iraqi prisoner be sent to a secret Afghan/US Prison that Rumsfailed did so. After four months a DOD Attorney stated that this was an illegal act. Rumsfailed then ordered that this prisoner be sent back to Abu Graihib but the prisoner was purposefully not listed at that location, also an illegal act. Rumsfeld also admitted to signing orders for tougher interogation methods which violated the Geneva Conventions.

Rumfailed has commited at least three violations of the Geneva Convention thereby also violations of The Constitution of the USA. Recently it has been found out that even more detainees were "ghost detainees". The fact that Rumsfailed and Tenet have not been charged speaks volumes. If Congress wishes to garner any respect they should move forward with Rep. Rangle's Impeachment Declaration of Rumsfailed and also proscecute Ex. CIA Tenet.

=========================
Q: Senator Jack Reed (Dem, RI): "If you were shown
a video of a United States Marine or an American
citizen in control of a foreign power, in a cell block,
naked with a bag over their head, squatting with their
arms uplifted for 45 minutes, would you describe that
as a good interrogation technique or a violation of
the Geneva Convention?"

A: Marine Gen. Peter Pace, the vice chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff: "I would describe it as a violation."

A: Paul D. Wolfowitz, the deputy secretary of defense: "What
you've described to me sounds to me like a violation of the
Geneva Convention."

5. No.
I don't feel that Rumsfailed will be let go. That would be considered a defeat for the Fascists. It is amazing to me that the troops still have a loyalty to this shameless War Criminal that has betrayed them.

8. Tonight I watched "The Control Room"
a documentary about the press offices at Central Command in the run up to the fall of Baghdad as seen through the lenses of Al Jazeera. It showed the propaganda machine at work several times, where when they wouldn't push the White House's agenda, Rumsfeld would come out blasting them as "liars." It was very interesting.

9. What Dems? They're mostly bought and paid for and supportive of PNAC.
Either quietly or loudly.
