What in the World!

My gosh, the moral turpitude of some people. How dare they. Don't they know their station in life, their role, their submissive position to the 'powers' of our political class? This has got to end, we must deal with this harshly. Before you know it we will have all types of American citizens standing up and questioning our actions. Where did they get the idea we could actually be questioned? Who let the group of rabble rousers in anyways? Where were the filtered and screened audiences we usually get – where were our 'Stepford' attendees?

When Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld goes on the road to deliver a speech, it's usually in front of a relatively respectful audience: U.S. troops stationed overseas, the Council on Foreign Relations and the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation dinner have been among his appearances this year.

An audience in Atlanta on Thursday turned out to be a bit different.

Rumsfeld was interrupted three times by antiwar protesters during his speech, and during a question-and-answer session afterward he was forced to defend himself against charges by a former high-ranking CIA analyst that he intentionally lied to push the U.S. into war in Iraq.

Aww gee. He was actually held accountable for something. That's just too bad. 990 days left.
