1. Herr Rumsfeld needs to get out more
Make him spend 6 months with a grond unit in Iraq. THEN we might listen to any opinion he has.

13. But it won't give him any insight into the war in Iraq
that he thinks we are winning

No, send him to Iraq to learn the hard way

14. OK, Why not Divide It Up???
3/4th to Iraq... 1/4th to GITMO! That should help!

17. because the OP is about his remarks about the war in Iraq
:shrug: Dunno what Gitmo has to do with that. Besides, there are other cabinet members who could go there, say lawyers who justify not following Geneva Convention.

18. Yes, I Understand...
I just want to make him EXPERIENCE it ALL! The more discomfort that can be doled out the better!

I think perhaps he was instrumental in the decision about the policies at GITMO!

Oh well, maybe karma will kick in someday!

8. It's the Nixon "I am not a crook" syndrome
You enforce the message by outright denying it.

11. consideration of losing the war
means we are losing the war.

this is the only superpower against a tiny country like iraq. why would there even be a question of losing? We are losing.
