Rumsfeld on MTP.
Never in my life have I seen or heard such fast talking, tap-dancing, sidestepping, bald faced lying.

Just one part: The army retention is going well, especially among those who have served in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Sure.
Maybe because their tours are being involuntarily extended?

This guy is just unbelievable in every sense of the word.

1. Rumsfailed very defensive with Stephanopoulos on "This Week"
ducked the question regarding the new report of the US meeting with Iraqi insurgents and terrorists.

2. He's got that certain pitch to his voice that he gets when he's on the
defensive. He also sounds angry and louder than what is necessary, as people tend to do when they're lying!

3. It was good comedy
I was laughing out loud when Rummy tried (and failed) to
re-frame KKKarl Rove's smear on liberals.
"What he was really saying was..."
"What he meant to say was..."
"Really what he was referring to was..."
The backpedalling was fast, furious and futile.

I only wish Timmy had the guts to really call him out on it.
He seemed to push back on Rummy a little.. but mostly
gave the senile old bat a free pass. Geesh.
