Wolfowitz must resign
There's no manner of people who are willing to forgive President Bush's spoken errors as just that, sometimes justifiably and other times less so. However I doubt even the fiercest apologist for this Administration can really explain this:
Among other things, Rumsfeld talked about the world just before the Sept. 11 attacks, whose third anniversary is today. In Afghanistan, he told the National Press Club, "the leader of the opposition Northern Alliance, Masoud, lay dead, his murder ordered by Saddam Hussein, by Osama bin Laden, Taliban's co-conspirator."
...Later, Rumsfeld said, "Saddam Hussein, if he's alive, is spending a whale of a lot of time trying to not get caught. And we've not seen him on a video since 2001."
A defense secretary who does not know simple facts like these, is a defense secretary who is clearly unable to continue in his role effectively. He should go.
