Haters of freedom are back from vacation

After a 2 day hiatus it appears the violence in Iraq is escalating, or at least becoming more newsworthy. I guess nothing of note happened to Camilla and Charles today. Although Rumsfeld won't tell us exactly how many insurgents are responsible for the attacks in Iraq he did indicate the number was somewhere between zero and two hundred thousand. Apparently not all of these are full time suicide bombers, he indicated some are transient in their support. I wonder if they get benefits...

Also today while being questioned on the 419 billion dollar budget he was forced to defend the missile defense program. Since the missile defense program doesn't work, wouldn't it be wiser to spend the money on armor for the humvees in Iraq? Of course not. Rumsfeld is way more interested in getting more money for an updated nuclear arsenal so he can refight the cold war. I'm sure he thinks the US won that way too easy.
