1. As if...
Grumpy Rummy ever flew HIS plane off of a carrier into...actual combat! x(

This guy wouldn't know what real combat was if it came up and bit him on his shriveled-up old :kick:

I don't think our troops need to hear a "Who cares about casualties? Suck it up and take it like a man!" talk. If I were they, and I was getting out whenever it was I would get back stateside. I'd organize againnst Dub with my fellow vets so fast it'd make Grumpy's head spin.:mad:

B-)

2. "Message to the People of Iraq" 4-30-03 transcript

It can't be true, the thought processing inside the Reichmarhall-call the Crisis Center with me before someone else gets hurt!

It hurts me to view this insanity!

3. Here's an interesting way to phrase an answer:
Speaking to a question about US bases and personnel leaving Europe to replace those in Iraq:


Q:  So what you're saying sir right now is that it's still up in the air and it's a long way from here.
Rumsfeld:  You bet your life, it's a long way from decision. (more)


Actually, Mr. Rumsfeld, sir, YOU bet their lives...
