11. Why in the hell does Rumsfailed
appear on Arab TV today? I did a little checking after I read an earlier thread. "This just can't be" I thought to myself.

I searched under Al-Arabiyah. Sure enough, there's the Old Goat himself. INterestingly enough, Crummy himself has attacked this arabic TV station. He said they "supported terrorists", "were part of the problem, not the solution", and he's tried to have them shut down.

Now he's appearing on that station?

It's Through the Looking Glass.

13. He can't...has to be retired from the military for 10 years before he
can be SoD. But you are right. He'd be perfect for the job
and we all could have faith in him and his decisions. However, I bet he wouldn't want the job after Rummy the Dummy
fouled everything up. No one wants to fix someone else's mess. Maybe that's why the President didn't fire him...he couldn't find anyone that would accept the job.

12. LMAO ! Tommy Franks can kiss my ass!
That's the guy that left hundreds of tons of HE lying around for the enemy to police up.

Just the kind of incompetent lout that the Bush corporate cabal hires and promotes.

Competence is not a key factor for those seeking jobs with BushCo. Loyalty is the #1 thing. They operate just like the mafia, but do oh so much more harm.

Franks doesn't like the other generals speaking out because they know what an incompetent asshole and ass-kisser Franks is!

14. Don't even mention Franks name around my husband. Franks sat his ass in
Qatar the entire time...in a nice, air-conditioned building out of harm's way and he still couldn't bring himself to stay very long. If I remember correctly, he left like in May of '03 (maybe June) and came home and retired...leaving all of his troops over there. What a piece of shit commander! You don't leave your troops behind!
