FALLON NAVAL AIR STATION, Nev. -- Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said Monday he is deeply troubled by the success of terrorist groups in "manipulating the media" to influence Westerners.

They are really outdoing themselves this time. I think this is a veiled reference to the photoshopped pics of Lebanon. We are supposed to believe terrorists coerced the photographer into making his photos look more deadly. Its not possible that Westerners are growing disgusted with the non-stop promotion of aggression by Israel and the US.

"That's the thing that keeps me up at night," he said during a question-and-answer session with about 200 naval aviators and other Navy personnel at this flight training base for Navy and Marine pilots.

What keeps him up at night is his failures as Sec of Defense.

"What bothers me the most is how clever the enemy is," he continued, launching an extensive broadside at Islamic extremist groups which he said are trying to undermine Western support for the war on terror.

Fortunately, Americans are not buying this latest version of why I am flunking defense 101.
