I guess I'm a new type of fascist
According to Rumsfeld anyone that doesn't agree with the administration's policies on Iraq is a fascist.
"Rumsfeld portrayed the administration's critics as suffering from moral and intellectual confusion about what threatens the nation's security and accused them of lacking the courage to fight back."
What an asshole. At this point that they are still trying to make the case that Iraq is part of the war on terror shows just how stupid they think the general population is. It's amusing that he references the Nazi's. I have no doubt if Rumsfeld was living in Germany during WWII he would have been one of Hitler's most vocal supporters.

Hi Mochi!
I didn't understand Rumsfeld to say that. It seemed like he was saying that we shouldn't appease this "new type of fascism" (which isn't new--it has existed for centuries). Did you understand that he was calling people facist if they disagreed with the Iraq policy?

Mochi,
I noticed that Keith Olbermann came to the same conclusion you did on Rumsfeld's statements. Maybe its how one looks at it.
