1. That's an understatement
I am beyond impressed that it was even possible for Rummy to fubar something so badly.

4. He is setting him up for a medal of freedom in the hopes that Rumsfeld
won't blab about Bush.

6. Impressively underwhelming
Cheney said he was the greatest ever. Wow! I'd hate to see the worse. As far as I'm concerned he is the worse since McNamara.

9. It means Rummy's execution of the "war" in Iraq impressively extended the drain on the US Treasury.
Edited on Mon Dec-18-06 04:05 PM by tiptoe
Like Mike Brown's "Heckuva job" with Katrina, inefficiency in US government operations -- abetted by underfunding of programs due to a treasury deliberately drained by synthesized money pits (i.e. "wars" anywhere, as needed) and continued annual tax cuts to the rich -- is a virtue and goal for those publicly campaigning for privatization and tacitly working for prolonged war-profiteering by cronies.

If there were efficient and responsible military oversight to make secure Saddam's explosives bunkers once looting began in the ruse in Iraq, 800 tons of explosives material would not have become available for enabling and sustaining an "enemy" (IEDs as bullets) capable and enduring enough for an understaffed and underprovisioned US force to "battle" in Iraq for an extended period of time, now longer than US involvement in WWII.

"Who knew?!"

Rummy & Cheney & Rove & Norquist knew. Bush? (...see ...* "principles" and "stalwartness"...")

Democratic institutions in America were subverted for the (s)election of these "public servants" in 2000 and 2004. The subversion continued in 2006, but with success by Democrats in retaking majority control of the House and Senate -- (Bush: "I obviously was working harder in the campaign than [Karl Rove] was.") -- distracting from the landslide-reality of an even larger seat-changeover than was officially "counted" (as analyzed/posted elsewhere).


...
To Norquist, who loves being called a revolutionary, hardly an agency of government is not worth abolishing, from the Internal Revenue Service and the Food and Drug Administration to the Education Department and the National Endowment for the Arts. "My goal is to cut government in half in twenty-five years," he says, "to get it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub."

-- Grover Norquist: 'Field Marshal' of the Bush Plan Robert Dreyfuss, The Nation, posted April 26, 2001 (May 14, 2001 issue)
