First thing Dems are going to do is ask for the removal of Rumsfeld (12 Generals have already asked for his removal).  When his own are asking for removal, don't YOU think it would be the right thing.  Chaney only has the 2 years left (so who cares).  Rice - with the way things are changing, well she just won't have the carte blanch that she had before.\n\nIt's a great thing for America!!

Absolutely, Rumsfeld is old and has no clue whats going on, a new fresh of eyes and opinions, and someone with Keen military strategy. someone who knows how to work within the branches and work them togetther for a tactical approach. we need to reestablish what the goals are and who is being targeted. rummy has got to go....

Wow, thanks for the clip. Right out of his own mouth... by the way, the general in the clip who called for his resignation was the soldier the Pentagon chose as the most ruthless and cunning officer to place in charge of the counter forces in the Millenium Challenge War Exercise. Here is part of the article on him:\n\nAt the height of the summer, as talk of invading Iraq built in Washington like a dark, billowing storm, the US armed forces staged a rehearsal using over 13,000 troops, countless computers and $250m. Officially, America won and a rogue state was liberated from an evil dictator. \n\nWhat really happened is quite another story, one that has set alarm bells ringing throughout America's defence establishment and raised questions over the US military's readiness for an Iraqi invasion. In fact, this war game was won by Saddam Hussein, or at least by the retired marine playing the Iraqi dictator's part, Lieutenant General Paul Van Riper. \n\nIn the first few days of the exercise, using surprise and unorthodox tactics, the wily 64-year-old Vietnam veteran sank most of the US expeditionary fleet in the Persian Gulf, bringing the US assault to a halt.

Nouri al-Maliki should be very concerend. Not that long ago, Bush was saying Rumsfeld was the man for the job. When Bush pats you on the back, it seems like he is showing where the knife should go.

I am with you. I have posed several questions of this nature over the past two, three days and what you get is a deafening silence from those that wish to justify this dangerous man, that holds the most important job in the world. I think you know the answer, N.Korea might just retaliate and the recent memory of Vietnam would have told the Hawks in his administration that these guys will not just roll over and die. I think they are learning from the Iraqi experience.

Bush, Camel, Raping, Nazi, and Hell!!! Are different words which could come to your mind but behind such leaders, we have what we call Aides, Advisors!!!!!!\n\nYeah we can go ahead and say Bush, Saddam, Osama but for heavens sake what about the people who carry out these orders!!! Dont they have the brains to judge???? \n\nI think its never easy to get to the bottom of a problem without trimming the strings attached(political advisors.\n\nAnd having a person portrayed as an animal is another story..\n\nThink about it! Cos tomorrow it could be you in power with such mandatory advisors big man and it will be your name matched with the lousy wildanimal you can ever imagine..

President of Hell?  Sure!\n\n"Our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them. And they killed innocent civilians in cold blood" - John Murtha\n\nYou'd think Murtha had read the military reports before saying this, right?  But he admits he didn't.\n\nYou'd think the military investigation on the charges was completed when he said this, right?  But it wasn't.\n\nSo Murtha called our honorable sons, brothers, and fathers fighting to protect us in Iraq cold blooded murderers without reading the official report, and before the investigation was finished.\n\nMurtha is a traitor.  He gives the benefit of the doubt to our enemies.  He gives moral support to people who make videos of themselves chopping off the heads of innocent U.S. citizens.  Instead of being a Senator, Murtha should be an inmate.  \n\nI certainly hope American voters remember his words on election day this November.  A vote for any Democrat Congressman is a vote for Murtha, the American Taliban.

(sorry)

Rumsfeld, along with Ashcroft and Cheney, were among the architects of the cold war scares decades ago. They use the same rhetoric, just changing the "enemies." I, for one, will be glad to see him go. During the cold war we talked about a thing called the military industrial complex. It has resurrected at the hands of these men and others of their ilk. Try to go to a screening of the movie Iraq for Sale.

The retired generals who are speaking out against Rumsfeld are hardly liberals. Yet they are convinced that Rumsfeld has been a primary reason for the failed war effort in Iraq.\nIt's pretty compelling when so many retired generals, knowing they will be attacked for their views, still have the courage to speak out. \nWe already know that the planning for winning the peace was minimal. We know that Rumsfeld decided to have many fewer troops in the field than recommended by numerous experts, including the generals. We know that Rumsfeld disbanded the Iraqi military, a decision that many believe has made it so difficult to train a new security force.\nWhy continue to support someone who has made so many mistakes, and who doesn't seem to learn from them? Or is it just a case that firing Rumsfeld would acknowledge that Bush thinks everything is not going well? \nI guess when reality confronts fantasy, fantasy wins in this administration.

Never happen or they get fired! Bush surrounds himself with "Yes Men/Women." They tell him what he wants to hear. If someone speaks up - they are terminated!

I think you should do a little research. Six retired generals out of how many generals that encompass the timeframe of the six outspoken ones? Do they consititute a majority of retired military (I can tell you that no, they don't, not even close). What you're seeing is that the press only publishes the interviews of people they agree with - they do not publish the interviews of the other hundred or so generals.\n\nSince what he's done so far has been successful - the actual war was over quickly, there is already a government coming into place, the local police and military are picking up well, and the infrastucture is coming online for the first time in almost 50 years. So yes, he's done a "good job", wouldn't you say??

What's next???? \n\nMore of the same!! ..... Nothing at all!!!  Thats what they are good at!!  They spend a lot of time talking (BS) and not enough acting, or doing for our troops or the American people (majority of Americans) who want this war to end, corruption to end, rumsfeld to resign ...all of it. George Bush made it perfectly clear  that he's standing by Rumsfeld no matter how bad the criticisim or how many people say he should resign, Bush does what he does best, ..... Not Listen, and Not Care!!! He's an ignorant, stubborn fool and he will continue to do what we all expect him to do, (or at least I do ) which is NOTHING!!!
