To quote Rumsfeld "Back Off" :)

We all have the right to post our view but you need to consider the impacts on others. If you have something new to say thats great but harping on the same political views in a car forum is really selfish.

I think the anti war sedimate no matter how correct is actually feeding the fire of the terrorist, what do you think?

Until the other day, Rumsfeld didn't tell anyone "back off"

I think he got angry and finally said something he really thought not the the BS you hear from politicians all day long.

I think we all should back off on the war issue unless we have something productive to add.

I think we are in deep trouble with regard to the war and their is no easy answer.

we are in deep trouble. maybe some of us, even us lifelong republicans, would like to see someone in washington step up with a plan that is better than giving the middle finger toe We the People, who in fact own the government.

someone up there has got to figure a way out. personally, i think it's more troops, and a kick-ass approach. but, i'm not in washington.

More troops can't hurt, but doggone, where is the rest of the Arab world? Or why not 300,000 Chinese troops? The Peoples Republic is getting a free ride and they are sitting on their handsw as it is with the North Koreans.

Though this is off the topic of Rumsfeld being a tard, I agree...whats up with the rest of the world, like China?

errr, down here we call bush bashing taking an old bomb car out and making roads through the bush where there aren't any... he he

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

If there is one thing I have learned from this forum, its that Wagner is about as moderate as anyone on this forum. He is certainly no liberal.
