Rum-a-dum-dumb

In a study released this week, commissioned by the Pentagon, the US Military was deemed to be "Overextended" and on the verge of breaking.

"Not so" says Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld.

And what specifically in the report does Rumsfeld dispute? Well... apparently nothing, because...

The secretary suggested he was not familiar with reports suggesting an overburdened military. But, he said, "It's clear that those comments do not reflect the current situation. They are either out of date or just misdirected."

In other words: He hasn't even read the damn report that his own beloved Pentagon commissioned - and yet he claims everything in it is wrong.

Good research there Rummy.

Talk about an administration living in its own little misguided world. Or maybe this is Rumsfeld's interpretation of a Faith-based initiative. If he just "believes" it, that makes it so.

Does it get any better than this?
