Rumsfeld to war critics: ‘Back off’


<snip>

Rumsfeld also said people ought to “just back off” and stop demanding specific benchmarks or timelines for progress in Iraq, saying it is just too difficult to predict when the Iraqis can take control of their country.

1. Neecy to Rumsfeld: Fuck Off

Our soldiers are dying and our tax dollars are being sunk into this corrupt hole and we're not allowed to ask our government when we might reasonably expect some progress?

Their arrogance knows no bounds.

[IntravenousDemilo]

5. Well, great minds, eh? n/m

[Neecy]

8. heh

[IntravenousDemilo]

2. War critics to Rumsfeld: "Fuck off" n/m

[SpreadItAround]

3. Ooooo, what a tough guy

:eyes:

[Solly Mack]

4. Leave me alone!!!! waaaaaahhhhhh waaahhhhhh

6. he was all too happy to make predictions in 2002 and 2003....

"It could last six days, six weeks. I doubt six months," he said, speaking at the American air base at Aviano, in northern Italy.

7. Doesn't seem so hard to me.

I predict that the Iraqis will be able to take control of their country six months after the Republicans lose the white house, be that in '08, or god forbid '12 or '16.

9. Boy their new benchmark theme seems to be going over well

Donnie doesn't want it, Al Maliki says fuck you, Bushie keeps wanting to say "stay the Course". What the hell was President Cheney thinking, anyway?

[sabra]

10. it seems like these "benchmarks" were made 2 months ago

and BushCo was holding it in their back pockets...

11. Um..,,Let Me Think: - - - - - - - - -No!

Buffoon! You work for us, Donnie boy. We want answers and you will provide them!

12. Oh, okay, well, if you put it that way, that sounds reasonable.

Wait. No, no it doesn't. Go fuck yourself, Rummy!

[Jacobin]

13. Why hasn't he been fired? He works for us, not the other way around

[ProfessorGAC]

17. I Said The Same

We agree completely on this. This buffon thinks he is in charge of the people. He's just doing a temp job at the people's behest. Someone needs to hammer that point home to this idiot.
The Professor

25. No, he works for "them" actually and, in so doing, he works against "us". nt

[KharmaTrain]

14. CNN's Starr's Anal-isis was Pathetic...

When asked about that blunt statement she shrugs it off with one of those "oh that Don" look...and how von Rumsfeldt only answers the questions he feels like answering in the way he wants to answer them and "we're just used to it".

:puke:

[gratuitous]

15. I'll quit being a critic

When I'm no longer forced to pay for this war, Mr. Rumsfeld. Until then, take your whiny ass titty baby act somewhere else.

[lebkuchen]

16. On the contrary

Bring it on!

In coming, asshole!

[niyad]

18. HEY-rummy-dummy--you asshole-the iraqis HAD control of their

own country until you bastards went in with your illegal, immoral, unjust OCCUPATION and f***** everything up. you ALL deserve to spend the rest of your lives in prison for war crimes and crimes against humanity.

oh, by the way, asshole, YOU are not OUR boss, You do what WE tell you to do, NOT the other way around. please learn the meaning of the term "public SERVANT"

[Sugar Smack]

19. Oh, okay. So sorry. Didn't meant to step on your toes there,

asshole.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

20. Never.

I don't want to see done to my grandchildren's generation what was done to mine in Viet Nam, and your bleating and bellering won't begin to get me off your back. NEVER.

[youthere]

21. Now that's some high level diplomacy there.

[Zhade]

22. Fuck you, Skeletor!

You will swing!

[dkofos]

23. Dan to Rumsfooled FUCK YOU

[Disturbed]

24. This is almost a freakin' laugh.

A War Criminal spouting crap like this. Almost a laugh but not quite. It is disgustingly pathetic.

Rumsfeld Shouldn't be Fired, He Should be Indicted
by Matthew Rothschild

“Secretary Rumsfeld has publicly admitted that . . . he ordered an Iraqi national held in Camp Cropper, a high security detention center in Iraq, to be kept off the prison’s rolls and not presented to the International Committee of the Red Cross,” the report noted. The Geneva Conventions require countries to grant the Red Cross access to all detainees. “

http://www.commondreams.org/views06/0418-24.htm

Recently it has been found out that even more detainees were "ghost detainees". The fact that Rumsfeld has not been charged speaks volumes. If Congress wishes to garner any respect they should move forward with Impeachment Declaration of Rumsfeld.

26. I will be laughing we he is tried in the Hague for WAR CRIMES.
