We are a confused lot, aren’t we? On the one hand, Americans seem to know exactly how a failed secretary of defense can redeem himself: By resigning. A majority thinks Rummy should step aside. Bold of them, no?

I wrote here sometime back about the probability that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was using a signature machine for the condolence letters being sent to the families of the service members killed in action. The Pentagon finally confirmed that?.Rummy made some lame excuses and promised to never do it again. Buts that’s not the worst part of the story.

Gotta be sure we protect Bushworld’s miniature golf course and their waterpark. Where else can Cheney and Rummy send W to play so he’ll be out of their hair? It takes concentration to figure out world domination.

Last week say SecDef Rummy got challenged a little by some of the screwed over Guardsmen. I guess the Guardsmen figured he had nothing to lose. What’s the worse that could happen, he might get sent home instead of Iraq.

Anyone want to talk about America’s real drug problem? Nearly half of all Americans are currently taking some kind of prescription drug. And we’re pretending that giving a joint to a person in pain is the real drug issue in this country.
