Heh Heh -- The Rumster is loved!
The Associated Press

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld signed autographs, posed for pictures and was generally given a warm welcome as he made his way through the NASCAR garage area before the Pepsi 400.

Rumsfeld also got a standing ovation during the prerace drivers meeting.

"Everywhere I go around the world the troops talk about NASCAR and how much it reminds them of home," said Rumsfeld, the honorary grand marshal for the race.
