Clinton had criticized Rumsfeld yesterday for first choosing not to appear before the Armed Services Committee, where she's a member, writing that his appearance was "long overdue."
The Pentagon announced last night that Rumsfeld had changed his mind and would testify.
"The committee and the American people should hear directly from the top civilian leader at the Pentagon, the person most responsible for implementing the president's military policy in Iraq and Afghanistan," Clinton had said earlier."
Yes. The perfect person to summon Rumsfeld. Do-nothing, No-nothing, RodHam. Ms National Security herself. Can't wait to see Rummy fry her dusty old clams when that shrieking voice tries to back him into a corner. The very fact that she's a member of the Armed Services Committee is reason enough to do away with it altogether, and remember when it was the Ranking Member's job to ask people for a sit-down? Guess any cretin posturing for the Oval Office can make headlines these days by crooking her little finger. Here's a gander at the Dumbs manning the Committee:
DEMOCRATS
Carl Levin (Michigan)
Ranking Member
Robert C. Byrd (West Virginia)
Joseph I. Lieberman (Connecticut)
Jack Reed (Rhode Island)
Daniel K. Akaka (Hawaii)
Bill Nelson (Florida)
E. Benjamin Nelson (Nebraska)
Mark Dayton (Minnesota)
Evan Bayh (Indiana)
Hillary Rodham Clinton (New York)
UPDATERY: Caught some of H-Rod's grilling of Rumsfeld, and if her stuttering reading is all she's got then bring on the debates. Yes, she had to read every question to him for fear she'd frig it all to hell and actually SAY SOMETHING.
