"You forget Donald Rumsfeld is a NeoCon and I am just a moderate. While I know he has a much greater grasp on world events and strategy than you do"

I quote from "The Fall of the House of Bush," by Craig Under.

"On November, 15, 2002, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld assured Americans that if there were a war with Iraq, it would be a short one. "The idea that it's going to be a long, long, long battle of some kind I think is belied by the fact of what happened in 1990," he said on a radio call-in program. "Five days or five weeks or five months, but it certainly isn't going to last any longer than that, he said."

Quite the "grasp" indeed!
