The Economist Calls for Rumsfeld to Resign
Economist.com | Iraq
I'm a bit surprised and disappointed by this. My gut reaction is that the Economist is being more than a bit rash here. But I'm going to ponder this for a while; if his resignation would have a great material effect in helping us win in Iraq and elsewhere both PR-wise and on the ground, then I'd support it. However, I don't think anything could satiate an Arab extremist, so Rumsfeld's resignation would do nothing but hurt the war on terror.
Well, what if Wolfowitz took over... ehhh, I'm dreaming, and I know it.
