Rumsfailed in Iraq on "surprise visit" - CNN.com

[Skip Intro]

Its "breaking" as of this post.

Yet another bs photo-op in the making is my bet.

1. Desperate last-ditch attempt...

...to save his career.

I think he's going to resign - after this little publicity stunt in Iraq fizzles out.

The Army hates him - Frist and Hastert have turned against him - only person supporting him now is Bush but he'll step into line soon enough.

2. Frist turned against him?

Frist is a Rove operative.

6. OK, so maybe I was extrapolating

I did run across this quote today from Frist:

"What we saw is appalling," said Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn.

= = =

So maybe Frist is realizing he has to make a choice between supporting Rove or condemning forced sodomy and torture.

By the way, I wonder what Santorum thought of the photos. He always had such a keen interest in gay sex and "man on dog" scenes.

13. I read that Frist is the real Anti-Christ instead of Shrub!

Not all the churchies are sucked in by these boys in DC! You have to admit these guys are about as strange as they come, but I thought the Antichrist was supposed to be smart!

3. What the hell...

These people need to have tracking devices placed on them...or at least a bell around their necks.

What good can he possibly do there.

Gee, Rummy you were at that prison once before! Too damn bad you couldn't give two shits about what was going on back then!

Gotta admit these assholes are good at getting the press!

Maybe someone will tie a leash around his neck and parade him naked through the prison!

5. Myers is with him

[Solly Mack]

8. CNN reporter mentioned Rummy's prior trips, to include when he met

w/ Saddam

[annagull]

[VOX]

7. Well, **that** should bolster morale...

Now we'll have a companion screen-capture to bookend the rummy-Saddam handshake...

[Robbien]

9. The CBS reporter said Rummy was there to "calm the storm"

over the torture photos. And yes CBS said torture.

[bandy]

10. He's probably feeling safer there

right now then he would be in DC.

[MSgt213]

11. You can bet they will be chewing some fucking ass for this Something they

should have been doing all along.

[Hubert Flottz]

12. I hope he remembered his rubber turkey and plastic Jesus!

I'll bet they use the rubber turky to beat people in that jailhouse that would be my guess anyway! I'll bet Ashcroft is hot about the boob pictures!

[ElsewheresDaughter]

hehehe
