Rumsfeld calls GWB critics on "moral and intellectual confusion:"
Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld on Tuesday accused critics of the Bush administration's Iraq and counterterrorism policies of trying to appease "a new type of fascism."
In unusually explicit terms, Rumsfeld portrayed the administration's critics as suffering from "moral and intellectual confusion" about what threatens the nation's security and accused them of lacking the courage to fight back.
It's not much of a stretch to believe that Rumsfeld's views apply to MSM, since MSM -- even though it claims to be devoted to reporting both sides of any issue without favoritism -- is broadly biased against anything GWB does. AP may be taking it this way, in light of their anything-but-non-judgmental headline for this story: "Rumsfeld Lashes Out at Bush's Critics."
Also, concerns that the GWB administration would stop using the term "Fascists" in reference to those who kill in the name of Islam, appear to be unfounded in the wake of Rumsfeld's use of that term in this speech.
