Arrogance in a suit.

Rumsfeld, along with his boss and the Administration should all be fired. Hell, fire all the Senators as well, since their interests are not for the American people but instead for their own power and influence.
Every year we put our country deeper in debt fighting wars while our kids are amongst the dumbest in the world. We put billions of the defense money on gold-plated fly boy toys that win the Cold War instead of today's assymetric conflicts and leave little money for proper training, equipment, and leadership of our troops (which should be the #1 priority!).
Rumsfeld has definately not helped the situation. His advocation for a "transformation" in the military places too much emphasis on gold-plated fly boy toys instead of training, equipment, and leadership. Support for military reorganization such as the ridiculous Army proposition to create brigade combat teams (which guts manpower while increasing headquarters size) also stifle our military.

No. You don't get the full story on the evening news, you get what makes ratings. Controversy makes ratings. Most guys in the box don't think it's 'vastly undermanned' or any of that crap. And think on this: a couple civilians killed in Iraq makes our national news as a terrorist attack, a couple people killed in LA is just a gang killing, might make local news

No. The issue is not Rumsfeld, but the man who appointed him and approved every decision. (or, as another President put it "The buck stops here".)

He should be handed over to the people of the middle-east. He must pay for his crimes. He is an evil, souless thing.

NO HE SHOULD BE SHOT. THIS GUY IS THE WORST. HE KNEW ABOUT ABUSE OF PRISONERS. HE CONDONED IT. IT IS TIME FOR AMERICA TO GET OUT OF THE WAR BUSINESS AND INTO THE PEACE BUSINESS. UNFORTUNATLY THERE IS NOT AS MUCH MONEY IN IT.
