Rummy Resurfaces, Calls for U.S. Propaganda Agency
http://blog.wired.com/defense/2008/01/rummy-wants-pro.html

Rightly or wrongly, the Pentagon was accused of creating a propaganda office. Now, the former defense secretary has a bigger vision: he is advocating a "21st century agency for global communications."

6. Wasn't that Karen Hughes latest appointment. She gave up and went back to Texas.
Rumsfeld should be in a mental hospital somewhere.
The guy is completely nuts.

15. He only has 1 more year to cash in. I can't see any dem hiring him for anything.
In fact, John McCain wouldn't either because he has totally absolved Bush and blamed Rummy.
