Rumsfeld sucks. He has been in government since the Nixon era. People like him have caused most of the crap we hate today!

He is part of the problem. But, I was at the NJ Republicans Reagan Dinner in April where he spoke. He is vehemently anti-Obama and Hillary. I’ll take the endorsement and move along.

I sort of understand why you say that. Care to elaborate?

He has been in government since the Nixon era.

Not really. He spent six years in Congress in the 60s, then seven years in the Nixon and Ford administrations. From 1976 to 2001 he was in the private sector, served 5 years as SecDef, and has been in the private sector since 2006. That's a total if 17 years out of 53. Most of his life he has held jobs in the private sector.
