| Rumsfeld's Bad Day, Mega-Churches, & Tombstone Vigilettes | | 2008-08-10 16:27:41 | | SUNDAY, AUGUST 10I am working on a book about fashion in the era of the Wild West, tracking costume through photographs from the beginning of photography until 1910 when Hollywood took over. What started me on my quest was my desire to prove the good women of the Tombstone Vigilettes wrong. Bonnie Darlington is one of them. Boy was I wrong! This group is very much "up" on fashion of the Wild West down to the smallest detail. FYI, Bonnie is the town florist there in Tombstone and does a fantastic job!I don't mind admitting I do not ...... | | By: The Pink Flamingo | | |
| | Rumsfeld Helped Al Qaeda Establish a Stronghold in Northwestern Pakistan | | 2008-06-19 02:22:00 | | The Bush administration is contemplating sending US Forces to Pakistan with a view to neutralizing Al Qaeda in its safe haven in the Northwestern region of Waziristan. Map: Waziristan including Federal Administered Tribal Areas (FATA)This initiative is part of the Administration's "preemptive war doctrine".The Al Qaeda stronghold in a remote mountainous area is said to constitute a threat to the security of the American Homeland. According to the Directorate of National Intelligence, ""Al Qaeda remains the most serious threat to the United States (...)We assess the group has protected or regenerated key elements of its homeland attack capability, including: a safe haven in the Pakistan Federally Administrated Tribal Areas (FATA), operational lieutenants and its top leadership." ( Inside The Pentagon July 26, 2007), ) At closed sessions of the Senate and House Armed Services and Intelligence committees, Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence James Clapper confirmed the Administ... | | By: Muhammad Yaqoob | | |
| | Rumsfeld Gets A Haircut! | | 2008-06-13 00:25:00 | | THURSDAY, JUNE 12When I dropped Rums off at the poodle parlor this morning I had an adorable little monster with 6 inch poodle dreadlocks. He now has a ‘buzz cut’ – his hair is maybe an inch long. He still has his fuzzy face and his pony tail. Evidently he likes it. I don’t, but he needed his summer cut. Have you ever read the Laura Ingalls Wilder classic, Little Town on the Prairie? There’s a chapter in it called Whirl of Gaiety. Social life in the little frontier town was finally getting started. There was something ...... | | By: The Pink Flamingo | | |

| Rumsfeld in the frame | | 2008-05-09 17:36:52 | | I always had a feeling that Donald Rumsfeld was a dodgy character. To men like Rumsfeld, the political skullduggery comes easily. Ken Livingstone, the defeated Labour candidate for London mayor, said that he preferred political intrigue and committee "work" to the actual managerial activity his post required. Rumsfeld's certainly no Livingstone, but in this they have a certain kinship.Ricardo Sanchez, the commander of U.S. Forces in Iraq in 2003-2004, has written a new memoir, Wiser in Battle - A Soldier's Story, an account of his life and his service in Iraq. Sanchez basically blows the lid off Rumsfeld's rotten barrel of political poison. Remember, Rumsfeld was the man who gladhanded it with Saddam Hussein. That was before Saddam fell out with the Americans and started selling Iraqi oil in euros.Sanchez had a run-in with the devious Rumsfeld. Interestingly, in this excerpt from Time Magazine, it is Sanchez's wife who gets the point, commenting on the "offer" Sanchez was given by Rums... | | By: A View from Middle England by Arden Forester | | |
| | Rumsfeld Remix | | 2008-04-05 23:00:55 | | Un monovideoremix de Donald Rumsfeld (ex-Secretario de Defensa de EE.UU). Técnicamente muy original, su contenido te hace preguntarte si esto es tan solo un paso más allá de la distorsión de la verdad en los medios. Este video es un exageramiento pero en contraposición, en muchos medios se realiza la acción inversa: la simplificación (por no decir el corte, parcialidad, ocultamiento) de las... | | By: maluc21 | | |

| | | Rumsfeld flees France | | 2007-11-10 11:57:24 | | Just before switching servers I posted a piece about Rumsfeld fleeing France for fear of being charged with the crime of torture. At the time of that post the information was somewhat sketchy and I hedged a bit fearing that the report was too good to be true, but that has changed. Charges were in [...]... | | By: Hell's Handmaiden | | |
| | First Rumsfeld, Then Rove, and Now: Gonzales? | | 2007-08-17 01:02:06 | | First Rumsfeld, then Rove, and now Tony Snow. Who’s next? Alberto Gonzales?In the past year, over 15 key administration officials have resigned. The original staff members of the Bush Administration is a rare species ("Can I pet it mommy? Please!").Joshua Bolten, the President’s chief of staff, recently told senior aides that if they stayed past Labor Day, he would expect them to stay the rest of the term. This, according to Rove, forced him to leave.Understandably, this could be the reason Tony Snow is planning to leave. Snow was interviewed by Hugh Hewitt:HEWITT: Are there any other resignations upcoming, Tony Snow?SNOW: I think that probably…as [Joshua Bolten] said the other day, he thinks there are probably a couple coming up in the next month or so.Which makes sense based on Bolten’s Labor Day remark. So, will Gonzales go?It’s true Gonzales might not be considered a ‘senior aide’; he is higher up in the chain of command than that. But he has become a liability for th... | | By: Thoughts on the World | | |
| | Book Review: The Rumsfeld Way | | 2007-06-15 07:22:23 | | Before you political extremists go bonkers and immediately write off this book review as either the ramblings of a neo-conservative or a pantywaist liberal, understand that I read this book from neither of these viewpoints! And before you poo-poo this book, you should know when and from what viewpoint it was written.
