Rumsfeld's Fall Drags Hawks in Its Wake

What you wanna bet that Babs Bush is behind this amazing little mutiny? Not that she started it or anything, but that she is loving every minute of it, because she has got to believe that Cheney's paranoid old ass is mostly reponsible for her son's problems, and Rummy is just a another Cheney

Rumsfeld's Fall Drags Hawks in Its Wake:

"While the unprecedented calls by six retired generals for his resignation have focused primarily on his competence, management style and strategy for invading and occupying Iraq, Rumsfeld's departure would almost certainly cripple the coalition of neo-conservative and aggressive nationalist war hawks in and around the administration for the remainder of Bush's term.

That is why the hawks outside the administration, led by the neo-conservative editorial page of the Wall Street Journal, appear anxious to persuade Bush himself that the current campaign against his defence secretary is really aimed at him.

'(O)n Friday Mr. Bush said he still has every confidence (in Rumsfeld),' the Journal stated. 'We suspect the President understands that most of those calling for Mr. Rumsfeld's heart are really longing for his.' "

Please, God, hold the co-conspirators in Congress accountable this year. Dump their asses, so they can be prosecuted without the hinderance of holding public office.
