Bush Throws Rumsfeld to the Wolves
At one time I thought George Bush was a man of honor and conviction. He’s spent six years telling us (rightly so) that we must stay the course in Iraq and in the War on Terror. Last week he responded directly to a reporter’s question, stating that Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney were staying on their jobs for the next two years.
Two years have passed quickly for the president.
I respect the president for what he’s done in the past, but pushing Secretary Rumsfeld out of the boat at the request of the Democrats was an act of absolute cowardice. Who’s next? Michael Bolton? Condaleeza Rice? Laura?
