| I have never really liked the guy. There is just something about him. Anyways, I think he needs to go. He's definitely ignored the experience of the military generals. General Shinseki said to take Iraq, the military would need around 200,000 troops. Rumsfeld publically critisized Shinseki for saying such a thing and surgested a figure around 60,000 troops. We know today that Shinseki was on to something.
Then we have the Abu Ghraib prison thing. The reports vary, but Rumsfeld knew about the abuse a few months before the scandal hit the press. Somehow, he forgot to tell the President.
That sums up how I feel about him
