Nothing unusual, move along

Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, who appeared with Abizaid, characterized the bombing Tuesday of the United Nation's Iraqi headquarters in Baghdad, which killed at least 23 people and wounded more than 100, as a terrorist act not unlike those that occur periodically worldwide.

"Terrorist activity has been going on in our world for a long time," Rumsfeld said. "It is going on today. There is hardly a month that goes by where there's not some relatively significant terrorist act that occurs somewhere."

You gotta be kidding me. Terrorism goes on all the time all over the world so the bombing of the UN Hq is nothing to get excited about?

Just who is stupid enough to buy this stuff?


JJJeeeeeezzzzzz....

2. Unfortunately, lots of unthinking peeps will buy it.
Rummy could say the moon is made of green cheese and at least 20% of the population would believe it. Some people really have no clue.
