Rumsfeld: "I don't get involved in politics in the United States"
This came up when talking about former Sandinista leader Daniel Ortega running for president in Nicaragua. "I don't get involved in politics in the United States, so you can be certain I don't get involved in politics in Nicaragua."

That means we're going to be deeply involved! No way in HELL will the * administration allow a repeat of what happened in Venezuela.

Here's the article, it mostly talks about Rumsfeld's concerns over Venezuela's military buildup.

He's Deep Inside Politics!!! Deep on the inside of the most POLITICAL Presidential Administration in American History!!! How the FUCK can he NOT be involved in politics?
Good lord!!!!! We're so far down the rabbit hole I just don't know How we're going climb back out. There are no "Eat Me" cakes or "Drink Me" bottles anywhere that I can see.
