You're Doing a Heckuva Job, Rummy!

[tjwash]

When was the last time we heard the President say, you're doing a heck of a job? The last time, President Bush heaped praise on former FEMA head Michael Brown, who resigned only a few weeks later in the wake of enormous public outcry over the incompetent federal response to Hurricane Katrina. But, in the latest example of the Bush Administration's appetite for incompetence, despite twice offering his resignation and despite the news of six former Generals calling for him to step down, President Bush beleives that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is doing a "fine job" and "a heck of a good job."

"President Bush's refusal to recognize that its time to make a change and fire Secretary Rumsfeld is symptomatic of his Administration's incompetent and failed leadership," said Democratic National Committee Communications Director Karen Finney. "Hasn't President Bush realized that its time to stop ignoring the advice of our military experts and commanders with direct experience in Iraq? Democrats will continue to fight for change, not more of the same failed Bush policies on Iraq."
