There can be no excuse for what the Bush administration did to undermine this country.

Let's not get rid of Rumsfeld, instead it's all Stephen Cambone's fault.

If Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld survives the Iraq prisoner abuse scandal, he may have to lose one of his closest advisers: Stephen A. Cambone, undersecretary of defense for intelligence.

Republicans in Congress have privately informed the White House that if Rumsfeld is retained, somebody in authority must leave. The most likely candidate is Cambone, whose office has authority over the intelligence officers blamed for abuses at Abu Ghraib prison. He has not been a popular figure either with the uniformed officer corps or with Congress.

A footnote: Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge, a former member of Congress who is well-liked on Capitol Hill, is being mentioned as Rumsfeld's successor if a change is made
