Yesterday's Traitor, Today's Patriot
GOP Learning to Loathe Rumsfeld
Hmm, Elephant called for Rummy's head on a platter shortly after the prison abuse scandal broke. Since then there has continued to be a near constant drip of misteps and quasi scandals surrounding the embattled DOD chief. But the funny thing is, that six months ago calling for Rummy's resignation elicited a harsh response from some EIE readers, today it is becoming a consensus position for GOP legislators. Rummy's out after the Iraqi elections. Of course he won't be fired, Bush doesn't do that 'accountability thing' well. Rummy will say "Mission Accomplished" and move on.
