The link @ Dod seems dead to me. But if it's on the same topic that ao4047 linked , well what could you expect from Donald "Duck and Cover" ? Hardly surprising, but thanks for posting it.
More interesting imho, from the same link ao4047 posted, is this this about the limitations of freedom of speech in a private parade ..it goes along this line. There's a difference. If it's a city event(parade), that's one thing, But if it's private, (parade)they have a right to bar a group
So I guess that if I book some street of my city to parade my interests I have the right to bring "dissenting" veterans to the sidewalk, even if today is Tuesday's Veterans Day parade. Very interesting, I didn't know.

As Tom Tomorrow points out, this cartoon of his from September turned out to be scarily accurate.

Reading the article in the Ocala Star Banner (via ao4047's link) was nothing less than bone-chilling. It's all too, too close to Orwell's 1984: we're at war with Eurasia. We've never been at war with Eurasia.

Here's where he said they'd welcome us. Here's where he denies that he said they'd welcome us. You can just hear that trademark Rumsfeld sarcasm: "I may look like somebody else."

Sure, the man might be a liar, but he does write some beautiful poetry.

Okay, I may be taking this a bit too far (and I should be working on my dissertation) but I had to write up this little bit of research on Rumsfeld's denials. I was able to find all the transcripts for interviews mentioned in Rosenberg's article.
