Time for a little bit of good news these days.

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

Well, the picture showed up in preview, but it didn't post.

Here's the photo that goes with the story:

[Poohbah]

I'm waiting for him to gaze heavenward and declare, "Idiots. I'm surrounded by idiots."

[ncpastor]

Rummy - You absolutely rule!!

[afraidfortherepublic]

And he's cute, too.

[Internet Explorer]

I love him too, but the first person I ever heard use the alligator quote in a political context was RWR when discussing budget the role of the federal government.

Goodness gracious!

RUMMY ROCKS!!!!!!!!!

I hope Rumsfeld's treatment of the press will raise their standards. Maybe they'll all start asking better questions to avoid being skewered by Rumsfeld. Maybe they'll start trying to come up with the best question to stump him. Maybe all other public figures will start to learn from Rumsfeld; that they can manipulate the press in to asking better questions by refusing to answer or criticizing the stupid questions.

[Republic]

This is good news. Not new news, but reaffirming nonetheless. It is just so grand, really, to have men in charge who do not waffle, make nicey-poo, lie, distort and evade the questions thrown their way. Of course they are NOT going to put the troops in danger by giving out information to early, and of course they are going to slam down stupid questions or statements. This is how grown-ups act. Rummy is elevating the press and they don't even know it-yet. (Helen Thomas, take note, Ari has been WAY to nice to you and your pathetic, innuendo laden, creepy questions so loaded with your yearning for the hick from Arkansas.)

I love the big Rum. Rummy encourages my pride in our American military to grow and flourish. What a good man, in the right place at the right time. Thank you President Bush!

[veronica]

What's not to like?

He's witty, charming, informed, and plain-spoken.

[abner]

Maybe not football. How about Peter Jennings' job?

[NYC GOP Chick]

"They are being used on front-line Al Qaeda and Taliban troops to try to kill them, is why we're using them, to be perfectly blunt."

*This* is why I love this guy! Honest, tough and unabashedly baring a killer instinct against those who have killed a number of us and would like to kill even more of us.

No talk of "degrading their war-making capabilities" and other such touchy-feely crap. This is a real *guy* whose primary concern killing the enemy, and he isn't afraid to show it.

[Clintons Are White Trash]

Three cheers for Rummy!!! This entire situation cracks me up and that he beat Chris Matthews is hilarious!

[Amore]

This is so true. I was home sick yesterday, so I got to watch, and I was thinking once again that he is just a joy to behold! I wish they would publish a schedule so I could tape every briefing.

[jws3sticks]

I was looking for a Press Conference Schedule Site for the Rummy Show and found this perfect site, which I am pleased to share:

Just left click here

Enjoy, all you non-thumb sucken Freepers. It's the other guys that are the World Class Thumb Suckers. What a great line. LOL, every time I think of it.

I have the site bookmarked between Dudge and FR Latest Posts. Perfect.

Maybe the American people just want to see and hear a REAL MAN tell them what's going on instead of the usual whiney, wimpy news commenatators they have been getting.
