isn't it interesting that each time when he publicly tells one of his appointments that he's doing a great job.......he would end up being let go a week later

No end to the great happenings this week. Three sentences: Hussein, Bush and now Rumsfeld!

"There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know."

more quotes from one of the senior Iraqi war architects and the most hawkish within the bush circle.....

    "I would not say that the future is necessarily less predictable than the past. I think the past was not predictable when it started."


"We do know of certain knowledge that he [Osama Bin Laden] is either in Afghanistan, or in some other country, or dead."


"Needless to say, the President is correct. Whatever it was he said."  (most disturbing)
