Defense Department News Briefing; someone get the Haldol!

The man is deranged.

God help us !

Defense Department News Briefing:

"RUMSFELD: Good afternoon, folks.

Over the past few weeks we've seen U.S. military personnel conduct a wide range of missions with skill and professionalism.

On very short notice, halfway across the globe, U.S. ships and thousands of servicemembers undertook the voluntary evacuation of some 14,000 Americans from Lebanon.
Here at home, at the president's direction, some 6,000 National Guard personnel have no deployed to our southern border to assist the Department of Homeland Security with the border protection, on a temporary basis, as the Department of Homeland Security recruits and trains additional border personnel.

In Afghanistan, coalition troops are helping the Afghan security forces fight off Taliban and Al Qaida, and NATO is taking on the additional responsibility for the southern section of the country as of, I guess, yesterday.
