or, the Republican house of cards.
Amazing. And Rumsfeld on top of the heap. Though it seems Dubya was prepared for his departure(witness Gates' speedy appointment). Gates is an unknown entity to me. Interesting that a former spook is now Pentagon chief. Hopefully, it signals some concerted effort to steer military culture to the task of dealing with guerilla/terrorist entities vs. conventional armies(as Rummy self-purported to do).
Of course, what we should be about is reversing the conditions we have created that have created the current world order and its terrorist spawn. I despair at this nation ever becoming self-actualized to the point where we can accomplish this. Instead, we're mired at the bottom of Maslow's Hierarchy.
I have to admit to an immense satisfaction at what a stinging personal rebuke this is for Bush. Not to mention Santorum(Sanctimonium). His excision was very timely(the medical terminology is intended here). He was a cancer in the body politic. Invasive. Metastatic. Dangerously powerful for so malignant a personage.
Word to the newly empowered Democrats. Tread carefully. Be what we all found so winning in the best of "The West Wing".
