My fighting style is 'fist of incompetence'
Donald Rumsfeld, Rummy The Squint, Destroyer of Worlds, Mangler of Sentences, Nemesis of Reason, He Who Should Really Really Be Out Of A Job By Now, has been taking some heat over here recently. Via Reuters:
"A recently retired two-star general who just a year ago commanded a U.S. Army division in Iraq on Wednesday joined a small but growing list of former senior officers to call on Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to resign.
"I believe we need a fresh start in the Pentagon. We need a leader who understands teamwork, a leader who knows how to build teams, a leader that does it without intimidation," Maj. Gen. John Batiste, who commanded the Germany-based 1st Infantry Division in Iraq, said in an interview on CNN.
"In recent weeks, retired Marine Corps Lt. Gen. Gregory Newbold, Army Maj. Gen. Paul Eaton and Marine Corps Gen. Anthony Zinni all spoke out against Rumsfeld. This comes as opinion polls show eroding public support for the 3-year-old war in which about 2,360 U.S. troops have died."
And yet he's still there, talking the most egregious bollocks on a regular basis. Last month he was blaming the media for "exaggerating" civilian death tolls and falling for sophisticated terrorist media strategies, and that's why public opinion has turned against his pwecious widdle war. From the Washington Post via Kos:
"We do know, of course, that al-Qaeda has media committees. We do know that they teach people exactly how to try to manipulate the media. They do this regularly. We see the intelligence that reports on their meetings. Now I can't take a string and tie it to a news report and then trace it back to an al-Qaeda media committee meeting. I'm not able to do that at all."
The cojones on the old boy are gigante, no? But they should be, since of course he is a master of 1000 fighting styles, among them:
White Cobra Fist
Spider Hand Technique
Drunken Temple Boxing
and the very gangsta Fist of the West Si-eed!
The fighting styles compilation is a couple of years old, but Rummy's piss-taking is way older than that. Other pics from googleimages. (On a side note, the Matrix pic is from a right-wing website that used it without irony. Which, ironically enough, is now ironic.)
