Rumsfeld's Fractured History Fairy Tales
Kevin points us to this Marc Cooper post providing us with yet another example of Rumsfeld's faulty recollection of U.S. history. If you recall, Rumsfeld has had major problems getting historical facts straight in the past. This hilarious example from a couple of years ago has still got to take the cake.
Did Rumsfeld not take any U.S. history in school?
Isn't it a travesty that someone in his position could know so little about his own country's history?
Or is history like everyone else to them -- just grist for the mill or yet another thing they'll twist or mangle or distort wildly in order to assist in the administration's latest agitprop effort?
