Donald Rumsfeld's getting the shock-and-awe treatment


Are you talking to me? Are you talking to me? ARE YOU TALKING TO ME? You must be, because I'm the only one here.

I was going to title this piece, "Na,na, na, na/ Na, na,na,na/ Hey, hey/ Good Bayh" because Sen. Evan Bayh D-Ind., is adding his voice to the call to oust Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. Senator Bayh, in a a radio interview said:
Regrettably, I think enough mistakes have been made of enough significance that I don'’t” have confidence in Rumsfeld, Bayh told NPR. “I have lost confidence in him.
Rumsfeld, whose "You go to war with the army you have" swipe at a soldier during a q&a in Kuwait, is hearing it full barrel from all sides. I wonder when he'll start calling United States Senators and Congressman "insurgents" for daring to question him.

In a related note, President Bush is considering a Medal of Freedom for Rummy this week. Bush was overheard saying, "Hell, let's give 'em all medals. Then lets have a parade with lots of banners where we stand on a podium and salute them. We could make a movie and call it The Triumph of the Willing."
