Times are a changin'
http://thinkprogress.org/2007/09/20/rumsfeld-speech-nixed-after-too-many-people-objected/

Rumsfeld speech nixed after ‘too many people objected.’Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld was supposed to speak to the Wichita Metro Chamber of Commerce in Kansas on Dec. 4. But today the Wichita Eagle reports that his appearance was quietly canceled last month after “too many people objected.”

1. He's definitely become the failed war poster boy
unfortunately

I say unfortunately because every republican political candidate takes turns discussing how the war was noble and righteous, but the 1st 4+ years was mismanaged by Rumsfeld. ...and only Rumsfeld.

Then they go on talking as if we're on the right track now. In reality, of course, Gates and Petraeous are just new faces on the same failed strategy with "new" tactics that will prove as promising as Coke Crystal.

Rumsfeld's hands are bloody, but he was just one of the crowd that got us where we are today.
