Politics: Rummy Lurches Toward Oblivion
Apparently, SecDef Donald Rumsfeld is going for the Trifecta. First he pissed off Tom Brokaw's Greatest Generation by saying that the hundreds of thousands of draftees who figured out how to win both the World Wars and the Korean War offer "no value." Next he launched a salvo at two of our biggest allies (one of whom has a veto-endowing permanent seat on the UN Security Council, natch) dismissing their opposition to war in Iraq by calling them "Old Europe". Now, he's eating his own. The Washington Times got its hands on a memo wherein Rummy rips the Joint Chiefs of Staff for "spinning their wheels doing things we probably have to edit and improve."
Sheesh. Remind me not to get on Rummy's list.
