The simple fact is that Rumsfield has always known that the troops on the ground in Afghanistan having been coming under fire from the Taliban every single day that they have been in theatre.
Intelligence on the ground has been able to tell him that the Taliban have been omnipresent since the U.S. led invasion and yet despite being in posession of this information he feel felt content to lead people in to believing that the Taliban had been routed. Something he and all other officials in the administration knew was patently untrue.

YOU CAN’T BELIEVE ANYTHING THEY SAY!

This is just another fine example.

That’s *got* to be the Dems response to this kind of thing, over and over, every time it happens: a mantra for the electorate.

It scales really well, as in,
** you can’t believe them on WMD,
** you can’t believe them on Iran,
** you can’t believe them when they say “Mission Accomplished,”
** you can’t believe them on New Orleans,
** you can’t believe them on budget deficits,
** you can’t believe them when they say we need a flag burning amendment,
** you can’t believe their negative ads,
etc., etc., etc., ad nauseum.

They can’t tell the truth, and that needs to be the #1 THING going into November. It’s not only a great defense against negative ads and swiftboating, but it’s also, uh, true.

80. I tend to read most posts and really have no problem with the trolls. it only solidifies my beliefs. firing back at them in no way allows them to control the thread. They are mere pimples on the a$$ that is the bush administration. Many of the posters here stand up for their beliefs (on both sides) and as long as it’s adding to the thread that’s great, if it’s just the mental masturbation that so many of the neotrolls spout then it’s just reaffirming my belief there are more horses asses than horses.

Why does anyone argue with brainless Seixon on this blog? I know, I get caught up in responding to the trolls ignornant comments at times. The way to avoid getting hooked into arguments with someone that will take a bullet for bush/cheney/rumsfeld is to just not read their comments. I now scroll right past the trolls and don’t waste my time reading their bullshit.

The lies are documented and published. The Congress and the MSM ignores them. The Administration pisses in our faces. So much for documentation.

Wouldnâ€™t it be nice then Seixon for Rummy to state that he grossly underated the situation back in 02 and now has to adjust. Because they are having to change focus on how the Taliban are refusing to go away.

justanobserver,

No!

What would be nice is to see that murderous son of a bi*ch chained next to his TREASONOUS co-conspirators in the White House, Pentagon, Halliburton, the Fox Propaganda Network, and Weekly Standard…

…ALL frog-marching to a courtroom in the Hague…

…and after being convicted for fraud, war crimes and crimes against humanity…

…having their (and their families and supporters’) personal fortunes/assets confiscated and returned to the national treasury…

…then sentenced to life in poverty, and misery in some faraway goulag…

…or better yet…
