Rumsfeld rejects calls to quit
Two Marines killed, 22 wounded in Iraq
Report says Rumsfeld allowed Guantanamo abuse
A saddening trio of interconnected headlines. As another Stumbler mentioned on his blog, it’s a dangerous thing to hope for Rumsfeld’s resignation, given the Bush administration’s creepy crony choices, and the recent push to “refresh” the US nuclear arsenal. They may replace this arrogant cold-fish with someone even less respectful of humanity, and who’d have thought that was possible?
