Donald Rumsfeld shamed his family and our country
I remember when Rumsfeld was first named Secretary of Defense, his extended family in Germany were so proud. Here was one of their small clan, an honest, hardworking German family who were thrilled that one of their own made it to the top in the United States.

Then this disgusting pervert shamed them all, and our entire country, with his sick, inhumane, medival torture. I can't even bother to mention his utter incompetence, his complete disregard for the troops that actually fight and die as opposed to write on chalk-boards.

His family in Germany, like the decent people they are, immediately denounced him, and this illegal, immoral, dishonest war.

This sick freak - after failing miserably to protect the country on 911 - decided to drag down the USA to the level of primitive, medival societies like Saudi Arabia that torture people. He even added his own disgusting perversions - actually ordering the RAPE OF IRAQI BOYS AND GIRLS - and VIDEOTAPED THEM to use as blackmail, threatening to send tapes to their families, unless they "spied" on the "insurgents" - i.e., everyday Iraqis. These poor kids just said whatever they thought their tortures wanted to hear, so they "exposed" their family, the neighborhood people they knew, and anyone else they could name to get the torture to stop.

I have a hard time feeling any sympathy for terrorists, murders, suicide bombers, people who murder children. We invaded Iraq, with a pretext that was an utter lie, and Rumself - to cover for his own incompetence - has decided to use the most disgusting, low-level, inhumane, revolting, illegal, immoral, pure utter evil "tactics" - NOT just on anyone who actually attacked us or killed innocent people - but just normal people who got caught up in his ass-covering.

Just to insult everyone and let us know clearly that he hates America, Rumsfeld would rather shovel cash to his crooked cronies in Halliburton and Bechtel than to actually pay for armor for the troops. He is spitting in the face of America, and everyone just sits by.

If Rumsfeld has the slighest shred of dignity, he would commit suicide to spare his family and his country any more shame. We can all be confident that won't happen.

2. You're right.
Love the rant - this sounds just like me for the past 4 years. Some other interesting factoids about RumsFool:

He has a net worth of about $156 million. He has a huge stock portfolio of armaments stocks, General Electric, and many other weapons manufacturers. I'm sure he quickly bought a bunch of stock in his "sweetheart" deals to Titan Corporation, and a few others who supply him with his mercenary army. They're the independent contractors who were implicated in the torture at Abu Ghraib. Conflict of interest anyone?

You're absolutely right - RumsFailed is a disgrace to not only the US but his own village in Germany. They're probably all washing their hands of him now.

He is an absolute madman, a dangerous lunatic who at his advanced age of 73 should be locked up.

4. He should be impeached but it wo't happen.
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.




Does the US, Govt., Congress, and the Justice Dept no longer abide by the Geneva Convention or the Constitution of the USA?
