In reply to the discussion: Reporter To Rumsfeld:"I sorta can’t believe these words are coming out of your mouth 10 years later" [View all]DallasNE
(7,392 posts)33. That Is What Questioning Is Supposed To Look Like
But everybody was speaking with such certainty 10 years ago, even when there was a mountain of evidence to the contrary. A good question for Rumsfeld would be "did he ever read Hans Blix report he prepared for the UN". Had he done that he would have known for certain how wrong he and the rest of the Bush's were from the beginning. Something that I have never been able to understand is how 100% of what the Bush team thought they knew about Saddam was wrong. 100%. Except for Shinseki and Larry Lawrence and they were both fired. And Rumsfeld doesn't even blush about that fact. What a shameful man.

I was in the car as well when I heard this, and had about the same reaction as you did!
