Why did Rumsfeld have to go? What do you think was the real reason?

[raccoon]

Was it one particular person he pissed off?

[RB TexLa]

1. Public relations

[islandmkl]

2. just WHERE did he go?...

good thing for him he wasn't around to be in Lenin or Stalin's sphere of influence. His 'resignation' would have had a certain finality to it.

[Breeze54]

3. Because everyone including the Rethugs were turning against him...

and it became clear that he was dragging down the GOP war party.

Besides the fact he's a fucking criminal moron but I know that

wasn't why bush got rid of him. That didn't bother bush at all.

[L. Coyote]

4. Illegal spying on Americans by the military intelligence services??

[Fireweed247]

5. He felt horrible guilt about the millions of deaths he had caused

and he felt so stupid that he was in a 'meeting' the entire time the hijackers were attacking the country on 9/11 and only realized what was happening when the pentagon was hit.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Kaleko]

6. Rat pushed off sinking ship for "plausible denial" reasons

[walldude]

7. Because he's a psycho lunatic fuck?

Oh wait, that's why he got the gig in the first place.. Sorry.

[frebrd]

8. They couldn't keep his mouth taped shut. n/t

[Disturbed]

9. The top Military Brass demanded that he had to go.

Rumsfailed was destroying the Military in an effort to privatize the Military with
Contractors aka Mercs.
