It's all about the Saudis/Sunnis and US troops being kept in the middle of the Iran/Shia vs. Saudi/Sunni war over Iraq's oil, to limit the damage to the Sunnis.

I think I may be onto something, that this is why Rumsfeld was forced out. Too, too pro-Iran/Shia. Think about it: Who's winning the war in Iraq? Iran (Shia)! Who's his daddy? Ahmed Chalabi (Iranian double-agent). Whose his other daddy? Manucher Ghorbanifar (Niger forgeries and perhaps more). Whose running Iraq's government and slaughtering Sunnis every chance they get, using weapons and "training" provided by Donald Rumsfeld? The Shias. And whom did Rumsfeld concoct the Niger forgeries and other phony WMD evidence to indict? --Saddam Hussein (a Sunni). And whose government did Rumsfeld utterly destroy in every way possible, to the point of lunacy? The Sunnis. So, now, the Baker/Bush Cartel asserts itself on behalf of the Saudis/Sunnis. And whose THEIR daddy? The king of Saudi Arabia!

I never thought it was the election, as to why Rumsfeld was suddenly ousted. (Since when do Bush or Rumsfeld or Cheney care about the opinion of the American people?) (Never! NEVER!)
