back on the subject though, I followed the link and read the article. Without a Dem/Rep bent either way I think this thread is an excuse to have a winge.... and I'm fine with that as it's election time up there.

The comment highlighted was part of an overrall reply to questioning and I think you've highlighted just the part of the interview that you want to. Here is the whole quote

Quote:
"You ought to just back off, take a look at it, relax, understand that it's complicated, it's difficult," Rumsfeld said regarding deadlines. "Honorable people are working on these things together. There isn't any daylight between them."
What about these?

Quote:
"it's difficult. We're looking out into the future. No one can predict the future with absolute certainty."
Quote:
"You're looking for some sort of a guillotine to come falling down if some date isn't met," Rumsfeld told reporters. "That is not what this is about."
Although I agree he comes over as a prick, I would hardly call the above quotes arrogant from a person in his position.

Cheers
