I always thought Rummy was a lousy game.


From Newsvine:

An ongoing exploration of the documents related to the Pentagon's "message force multipliers" program has unearthed a clip of former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld suggesting that America, having voted the Democrats back into Congressional power, could benefit from suffering another terrorist attack, and doing so in the presence of the very same military analysts who went on to provide commentary and analysis of the Iraq War.

In a related story, some months back a (pinless) flag lapel token was found in a hallway leading to a safe in Rumsfeld's former office.

The office lies vacant and untouched. 

Blasting caps were used to open the strong-box. 

Federal marshalls apparently found a still gift-wrapped volume of Sun Tzu's The Art of War and a dog-eared March 2002 issue of Perfect 10 magazine. 

A comb, believed to belong to Paul Wolfowitz, the former Deputy Secretary of Defense, was said to have been lodged in the pages of the magazine.

A bottle of Vitalis and dead flowers were on a windowsill nearby. 

An 8x10 glossy of Ronald Reagan from his appearance in "Death Valley Days" was also allegedly among the artifacts.

It wasn't personally signed; it was stamped.

A half-empty bottle of Cutty Sark, seven Xanax tablets, and a tutorial on sadistic torture rounded out the contents of the safe.
