Rummy: 'I'm a survivor'. Yeah, you ain't in the fuckin war

[mopaul]

you're a survivor alright, but 800 soldiers didn't have quite the odds of surviving as you. niether did 20,000 innocents in two countries. but at least you did, you worthless nazi. sending young people into a meatgrinder to make your billionaire friends into trillionaires.

step down? hell no. i'm a survivor.

1. I rarely choose strong words to express my feelings. Fortunately,

I always find someone in DU that will do it for me. Let me say then: MEGADITTOS!

[frank frankly]

2. i agree completely. those soldiers, even hand picked, could not like that

i'm sure his false bravdo was false to many of them. and i know the armed forces hate rummy.

5. Another photo-op for this administration

If he actually wanted to boost morale for those troops i'm sure that would have been possible without reporters and a camera crew. i dont buy his act of contrition and "Oh Dears" for a second.

6. I was absolutely stunned that he said that

and it takes a lot to stun me these days.

I just couldn't believe he'd say that in front of SOLDIERS WHO HAVE BEEN SHOT AT IN IRAQ

Unbefuckinglievable

7. Nazi, Nazi, Nazi.

We can't use that word enough, but there are those at DU who would say that we are out of line; that we are wrong.

[Oddman]

8. Yes that is a strong word . . .

and I dislike it very much. It displeasures me greatly . . .

10. My big, brave hero. nt

11. I almost puked

when he said that. "I'm a survivor" with that ghoulish grin. It was so revealing, his only priority is to stay in power, no matter the cost. Rumsfeld's survival is all that matters to him. I wonder what the parents of the 800 dead soldiers thought when he was celebrating his survival.

12. Women and children first? Hell no, I'm a survivor.
