CNN Poll: 69% "not pleased" Rumsfeld is staying on as Defense Secy
...on the CNN home page (http://www.cnn.com/) under "QuickVote."

But HEY, Condi sure looks pleased as punch...doesn't she?



"National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, left, and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, right, attend President Bush's meeting with Pakistani President Gen. Pervez Musharraf, in the Oval Office of the White House, Saturday, Dec. 4, 2004, in Washington. Rice will be replacing Colin Powell as Secretary of State and Rumsfeld, having overcome criticism about his handling of Iraq, has won a strong vote of confidence from Bush to remain at the Pentagon during Bush's second-term Cabinet.

4. Oh well why not sticvk with a winner...(Joke)

Check out the video of the latest police attacks. The reporter says that tens of thousands fo "Police" are not showing up for work because the Great Americans cannot provide protection for them. Any bets on a 200,000 plus force by spring time? Thats about half way to the Vietnam High!


In other developments:

Two US soldiers are killed in a roadside bomb attack in east Baghdad on Saturday and five are injured

A US soldier dies and another is wounded when a bomb targets a US convoy near the town of Baquba, north of Baghdad

Another two US soldiers were killed and five wounded in a car bombing at the Trebil border crossing between Jordan and Iraq on Friday

The British Black Watch battle group pull out of Camp Dogwood near Baghdad and return to their base in Basra in the south of Iraq

Police in Germany arrest a Lebanese citizen in connection with an alleged plot to attack the Iraqi Interim Prime Minister, Iyad Allawi, during a visit to Berlin this week.

The top American commander in the region, General John Abizaid, expressed concern about the ability of Iraqi forces to cope.

7. Too bad the populace can't decide the appointees
Why don't we try to pass a bill that lets us decide who fill the executive positions?
