Larry Johnson; Rumsfeld's time has come to resign

[killerbush]

This probably has already been blogged, but the article is so good, that it bears repeating. Larry Johnson has an excellent article on his website about the now 7 military officers who have come out and said that Def. Sec. Donald Rumsfeld must step down.

Rumsfeld, and the White House are definitely feeling the heat. Johnson says that these miltary men have no agenda, and are only speaking out simply because Rumsfeld has so screwed up the situation. Unlike the politicians in Washington, these men speak out because the welfare of the men are not being addressed. Johnson makes this quite clear, but of course the rightwing sleaze machine doesn't even spare men in uniform for criticism when their moronic agenda is threatened. Great article by Johnson.

2. Rummy quote...

In part of his response, Rummy said that there were "thousands and thousands of generals and admirals" who haven't called for his resignation. I don't have any exact numbers, but I can't believe that there could possibly be "thousands and thousands" of our highest ranking military officers. Our Sec. of Defense doesn't even have a clue as to impossibility of his own statement. What an asshole!

WESLEY CLARK: WOULD FIRE RUMSFELD
Gen. Wesley Clark, told a New Hampshire audience Friday night he had only fired one person in his life. On Saturday he said he wanted to fire a second person: Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld.

When asked at a house party on the Seacoast about what he would do in Iraq if elected president today, he was met with applause when he said, "First of all I would change the Secretary of Defense. Then I would go to the commanders of the ground and go to Iraq myself personally and I would develop an exit strategy that gives us a success and lets us downsize our commitment there."

Besides Rumsfeld, Clark also criticized Bush's National Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice for her views of the world and then U.S. House Majority Leader Tom Delay, also a Republican....

In Washington Saturday, Clark said Americans are embarrassed by Bush.
