Do you suppose Rummy was really just acting on Shrub's orders?

As much as I detested Rummy, after hearing about thememo he wrote, I'm questioning if he was really as incompetant as he looked, or if he was ordered to run this war the way he did by theabsolutely incompetant prez. Or worse, by the imcompetant VP!

1. Fool me.. Don't get fooled again
Rummy is every bit as incompetent as the rest of them, and he takes orders from no-one but himself. It's going to be very rough for Rummy after he is issued his orange jumpsuit, he'll have no choice but to take orders.

2. The theory that dumbass was or is in charge is even dumber
than dumbass himself. He is a front, a beard, the BOSS's SON FER CHRISSAKE. Dumbass is not in charge of anything, he has to ask permission to pee.

3. In collusion with Chimpy and Dicky
I hope all three of them are wearing orange jumpsuits soon. Impeachment would be too good for them. The crimes they committed were not just against the American people, but against the entire world. The war crimes tribunal will be the proper venue for them.

5. Could be the impression he wants to plant in people's minds now
"I was just following orders" Even if true, is NO excuse for what he has perpetrated. There is NO EXCUSE for torture, I don't care who signed the orders. There is NO EXCUSE for sending our troops into a bloody war for monetary gain with substandard equipment. PERIOD. I doubt very much that he was only taking orders from anyone but his own twisted psyche.. he and Cheney and the rest of the PNAC designed the blueprints for this bullshit years ago.

8. Rummy was part of the cabal -part of the whole machine whose plan includes destruction
of America as we all have known it for 200+ years.
He is/was part of the regime that intended to convert America into a fascist state and create 2 classes, the rich and the poor who would fight their wars in the ultimate plan of the regime world domination.

I would put more stock in the disgruntled employee syndrome, when Rummy was fired to vent some steam from a imminent explosion of the bu$h regimes core. He is a little mad about being thrown out the door without a golden parachute.
He is a big a criminal as Cheney, bu$h and Kindasleazy.
