Rumsfeld Resignation Call From... A Republican
Is GOP Rep. Jo Ann Davis (VA) the first Republican member of Congress to call for the resignation of Defense Sec. Donald Rumsfeld? We'll double-check that for Monday's edition. Regardless, any Rumsfeld resignation call from a Republican member of Congress from a military-heavy district is going to get serious attention.
Davis' main beef with Rumsfeld is that he didn't send enough troops to Iraq.
From the Hampton Roads Daily Press story, Davis: "Maybe he was the right one when the war started. [But] I think if he had listened to Gen. (Eric) Shinseki in the beginning -- I think Gen. Shinseki has been proven right. His argument with Secretary Rumsfeld was that we needed to have more troops, and he's right in my opinion."
"Is GOP Rep. Jo Ann Davis (VA) the first Republican member of Congress to call for the resignation of Defense Sec. Donald Rumsfeld?"
I think you might be right that Davis is the first to outright call for resignation, but Senator Hagel recently seemed rather irked at the SecDef.
Davis states exactly what she thinks of Donald Rumsfeld and the war on terror in this podcast.
Still does not mean she should be reelected!
Everyone new Rummy should have been fired years ago!
It's election time now folks. Protect your 6!!!!!
That is all shes' doing. She need to go!
Old CUT-AND-RUMSFELD Finally admits failure!
Now that we have PROOF, from the horse's mouth, that Bush lied to the people when he told the Press he expected Rumsfeld and Cheney to "Stay the Course" of his failed tenure as Pretender to the Presidency and his administration, can we expect to be freed from the fascist yoke of Cheney and Bush's War of Terror/Assault on Freedom, and Cheney is next?
