The President supports his man Donald Rumsfeld trusting him to run the war and the military in these difficult and trying times. I urge you to review the following statements by our esteemed Secretary of Defense and continue to support our great and glorious leader George W. Bush in his ever brilliant and infallible judgement. Begin here: "I am not going to give you a number for it because it's not my business to do intelligent work." -asked to estimate the number of Iraqi insurgents while testifying before Congress "We do know of certain knowledge that he [Osama Bin Laden] is either in Afghanistan, or in some other country, or dead." "We know where they are. They're in the area around Tikrit and Baghdad and east, west, south and north somewhat." -on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction "I believe what I said yesterday. I don't know what I said, but I know what I think, and, well, I assume it's what I said." "Needless to say, the President is correct. Whatever it was he said." "Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know." "There's another way to phrase that and that is that the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. It is basically saying the same thing in a different way. Simply because you do not have evidence that something does exist does not mean that you have evidence that it doesn't exist." -on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction "It is unknowable how long that conflict [the war in Iraq] will last. It could last six days, six weeks. I doubt six months." -in Feb. 2003 "I don't know what the facts are but somebody's certainly going to sit down with him and find out what he knows that they may not know, and make sure he knows what they know that he may not know." "I'm not into this detail stuff. I'm more concepty." "I don't do quagmires." "I don't do diplomacy." "I don't do foreign policy." "I don't do predictions." "I don't do numbers." --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5* Origin: Try Our Web Based QWK: DOCSPLACE.ORG (1:123/140) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 @PATH: 123/140 500 379/1 633/267 |
