Donald Rumsfeld: Dangerous psychotic or just a garden variety lying bastard?

I assume you've all heard by now about Donnie-boy Rumsfeld getting asked some very uncomfortable questions by a soldier about the utterly pathetic state of vehicle armoring over there. First, the stupid sonofabitch makes some flip remark about no matter how much armor you have, you can still get blown up. Yeah. Way to reassure them, fuckface.

Then he drivels something to the effect of they were moving as fast as they could on upgrading armor.

I've got four words for ya, Donald:

You're a fucking liar.

That man - and I use the term very loosely - is either lying his squinty face off or so dangerously out of touch he needs to be put in a room with soft walls and not allowed anything sharper than oatmeal.

More rantage to come later, mayhaps.

And then he got into his armored car and drove away.

Thank you! She'll be here all week! Don't forget to tip your wait staff and be sure to try the salisbury steak!

I liked the whole "you go into a war with the army you have, not the army you wish you had" statement. WELL THEN, STUPID, DON'T GO TO WAR IF YOU AIN'T PREPARED FOR IT!!! For soldiers to die needlessly because the buckets of sand they had hung from the sides of their Humvees and the sheet metal bolted to the floor didn't quite protect them from an IED is just plain UNACCEPTABLE. This administration sucks ass. GRRRR.
