Ah, Rummy speaks again, priceless!

Herr Rumsfeld speaking on NBC’s Meet The Press began by saying “wars are tough things." No shit! Hey I have an idea, don't start them for no apparent reason and then they won't be so tough. Hey Rummy what are they "tough things," or "hard work" can't you idiots make up your minds. I wonder how many times the Boy Monkey will say one or the other in his staged photo op, shamelessly using the U.S. Military on Tuesday night, any bets? Oh, and I can't wait to see that cool jacket he always wears when he plays dress up.

Herr Rummy went on to say . . "We're not going to win against the insurgency. The Iraqi people are going to win against the insurgency." Then why don't we just f-ing leave now?

"That insurgency could go on for any number of years. Insurgencies tend to go on five, six, eight, 10, 12 years." What Rummy has done some research and found that there has never been a case of an insurgency that lasted one to four years, or seven years, or nine years, or longer than 12 years? I thought you people didn't deal in logic or anything but black and white. Its interesting to note that the 12 year quote only appeared in his first Sunday appearance, a little slip of Rummy speak? Somebody got to him between appearances and told him to zip-it with that insight.

Back in Time. On Feb. 7, 2002 here is what Rummy said "It is unknowable how long that conflict will last. It could last six days, six weeks. I doubt six months." But now we are talking 12 years or longer?

Oh and the revelation that we are now negotiating with the insurgents! I thought we didn't negotiate with terrorists? Must be a semantic difference insurgents/terrorists just like enemy combatants/prisoners of war, its all in how you label it! And they had a cow over Clinton and the meaning of "is!"
