Top Commander Says Insurgency Still Strong

By LIZ SIDOTI, Associated Press Writer 1 hour, 5 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - The top American military commander in the Persian Gulf disputed a contention by Vice President
Dick Cheney that the Iraqi insurgency was in its "last throes" and told Congress on Thursday its strength was basically undiminished from six months ago.

Do you really think the GOPers will believe him? After all, they haven't gotten the purple stain out of their index fingers yet.

"Isn't it time for you to resign?" Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (news, bio, voting record), D-Mass., asked the defense secretary, citing what he called "gross errors and mistakes" in the U.S. military campaign in Iraq.

"I've offered my resignation to the president twice," Rumsfeld shot back, saying that President Bush had decided not to accept it. "That's his call," he said.

Clear evidence that this president rewards incompetence.
