#1 Also sez on Drudge that Kerry wants Rumsfeld to resign.

#2 Beware the 1000 Styles of Rumsfeld! They don't stand a chance.

#3 I predict Rummy will hand them their asses. He's a helluva lot smarter than they and has right on his side. They have...uh....political opportunism and anti-american-victory hopes?

#4 Laurence -

Yeah, Kerry wants to stay on his bike.
Kerry wants not to fall of a snowboard.

Kerry wants to not be hit by a riccochet of his own bullet. {well maybe not, he'd have to find the #3 Purple heart elsewhere}

#5 Since Kerry confessed to commiting warcrimes, prehaps Rumsfeld can tell Congress he's opening an investigation into that as well.

#6 Frank G - Rumsfeld will slice the senators the way Dr Rice sliced the {ahem} 9/11 comission, particularly {ahem} "Snake" Ben-Viniste

#7 And this is part of the results of getting over-wrought about this and running around screaming like a bunch of ninnies.

Not accusing everyone of that, of course, just some people.

By all indications, everything was being handled correctly, but the over-reaction has given our domestic enemies an opening to attack the war. Yes, I mean the OVER-REACTION is to blame, and not the actual acts. The crimes were being handled months before anyone starting squealing over them.

#8 RC _ Are you listening to Hannity now?
You seem to be echoing his thoughts.

#9 Kerry, Kennedy and Krew (KKK) seem to think that the only thing riding on the outcome of the war is who wins the election. You know everything is fair in love and war. Well KKK are at war with America. (They, along with most of the Old Euros, and the UN, not to mention the Saddamites, and the radical Islamists.) Unfortunately, the KKK are wrong, and there is a lot more riding on the war than the election. A few soldier's lives between now and then (but they are expendable), and who knows how many lives if they succeed in really turning the tide of the war. But all is fair in war, and in the form of prisoner mistreatment, they have been given another gun to shoot.

#10 RC, that was no coincidence. Grrrr.

#11 What a bunch of nothing. Do they honestly think that DOD had a policy of stacking Iraqi prisoners in a naked pyramid for the amusement of the troops? This thing will die quickly (as it should) if the Senate takes this opportunity and STFU! I think Rummey's first response should start out: "In response to your idiotic question..."

Nope. I turned off the radio half way through Limbaugh today. After I heard him talking about the Bradley Braves, I figured nothing I heard on the radio could be any better.

I am going to listen to Hewitt, though. That should be fun.

#13 Congress may want to re-think this decision. Especially after Dr. Rice's 9/11 Testimony. SecDef Rumsfeld is widely known for Taking No Prisoners. And collecting scalps for his Lodge Pole.

It may make for interesting television. Watching the different Shocked and Dismayed Congressmen rant and rave.

Though, it will be much more fun watching Rummy eloquently unload!

#14 At least part of this must becoming from the Dem's disapointment in the Gorelick result of the 9/11 Commission.
