Rummy is at Stanford ? anyone protesting him

On another part of DU I asked where has Rumsfield been. Someone wrote "at Stanford"... is that true?
Has anyone been protesting him? any person with a loved one in Iraq try to shoot him yet?

Anyone talk about having him as a "professor"? Seriously, I thought the guy would be in a nursing home.

Rumsfeld will join Hoover Institution


By Lisa M. Krieger / San Jose Mercury News

Former U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld, who directed the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and then resigned last November after months of mounting pressure, will join Stanford University's Hoover Institution as a visiting fellow.

Rumsfeld, who also led the nation's response to Sept. 11, will participate in the institution's new task force of scholars and experts studying post-Sept. 11 ideology and terror, according to Hoover director John Raisian, in a statement released Friday afternoon.

"I have asked Don to join the distinguished group of scholars that will pursue new insights on the direction of thinking that the United States might consider going forward," Raisian said.

The date of his service has not yet been set, according to Hoover spokeswoman Michele Horaney.

The Hoover Institution, a well-known and well-funded conservative think-tank, has long offered a comfortable spot for policy-makers seeking rest and reflection after service in Washington, D.C.

Rumsfeld is not be the only Bush appointee headed to the "The Farm."

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has said she intends to return to Stanford in 2009, when her term is over. In a recent interview with the New York Times, she said that she is looking forward to getting back into the classroom.

"I would do a simulation with students, where they are given a problem, some hot spot in the world," said Rice, the former provost who is on leave as a political science professor and Hoover Institution fellow. "And over a week they'd have to be the national security adviser solving those problems."

The Hoover Institution is also the new home of retired Army Gen. John P. Abizaid, former commander of the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), who is serving as its first Annenberg Distinguished Visiting Fellow.
