When will Rumsfeld announce his resignation?

Al-Zarkawi is dead. Rummy can now safely depart the DoD in a blaze of glory (or is that "gory?"), his legacy ensuring him a heroic place in rethuglican hearts, and minds--which, like Rummy's, are invariably a few pampers short of a full load.

Come on, Rummy. You've left your stain on the DoD. Your family beckons. Make your escape, like your fellow PNACers, before you find yourself up an insurgent storm-drain without a paddle. Life is just too short, as you yourself have revealed to the Iraqis and our military, whose destinies you've pitted against one another for no damn good reason.

Pack up your carpetbag and your accumulated mercenary wealth and enjoy the summer solstice as few others under your command can.

Obscurity knocks. Answer the call.

When Bush does not need him than he will go. Bush needs someone to have his base to blame if things do not look good for Bush. His base has put their faith in Bush as a good man and that they are not going to get rid of. Or that is how I see it.
