4. You were expecting integrity?
Silly Racenut20! Integrity is for little people, not for Rummy!

5. RE: Rumsfeld will lie some more at 11:45 a.m. EST!
I think if they put their hand on a Bible they will catch fire! Bloodsuckers do that! The anti-American house repigs are trying to shut down any probe into the private contractor deal! If the true story about the private Terra squads gets out the Bushistas are TOAST! That IS the real story here!

6. A tad bit off topic
but did anyone else or I am being too picky, hear * say yesterday that Rumsfeld was a "really good" Secretary of Defense? Really good? Isn't that abit childish? That is the wording my 1st graders would use. I just thought it sounded so ignorant. What should I expect though.

9. I want to know what known unknowns weren't known, ya know?
madame zola has looked into the tealeaves and found

-- Rummy will not take responsibility and blame it on bureaucratic walls, communication failures, CIA, FBI, out-sourced private contractors and of course -- list other problems/incidents that can be pinned on Clinton

-- Rummy will pooh-pooh it all as being the acts of a few bad-doers and this shouldn't overshadow all the good-doers

-- Rummy will state that he wants to organize an investigation to investigate himself to find out what unknowns knowns he didn't know

-- Rummy will say he doesn't know why bush* wasn't made more aware of the abuse and this is the fault of the "briefers"

-- GOPers will throw Rummy lots of complements and some softball questions, followed by press statements that say Dems are being partisan and not supporting the troops

-- if bush* is cornered by a reporter today -- he will repeat that he stands behind Rumsfeld, what he won't say is that Rummy is on the edge of the cliff and bush* will push rummy over the cliff

10. What?
I don't understand. Are you Pacific Time? That would be 8:45. Did you want it in primetime? Hardly. Please explain.
