Shorter Rumsfeld: It's hard out here for a Pimp.
"Well, you know, this, too, will pass," Rumsfeld said

And of course, he chooses to gloss over his incompetence with this:

"And if we recognize that the same kinds of criticism that occurred in the Revolutionary War and World War I and World War II and the Korean War, Vietnam War, it's not new. There have always been people who have opposed wars."

It reminds me of Eric Straten defense in Animal House. "I'm not going to sit here, while you bad-mouth the Unites States of America! Gentlemen!"

including the Generals to go f*ck themselves.
