Charles Rangel is a joke, this resolution is a joke, and if the Democratic party puts any weight behind it they will take one step closer to completing their journey into the abyss. While I'm sure this resolution consists of many pages of democratic eloquence, they could save us all some time just my printing Waaaaaaaaaah! on some democratic party letterhead. They're getting their asses handed to them in elections all over the country, their dreams of a continued recession have evaporated before their eyes, so all they have left is to concoct fantasies about the war in Iraq. Rumsfeld bears the brunt of their frustration because he represents everything they hate: he's highly intelligent, confident, and doesn't communicate in the nebulous political speak so coveted by the dems. He's results oriented, and will step on whoever's toes are getting in the way of real progress. It's easy to understand why the party of political correctness and appeasement wants Don Rumsfeld out.

There will be no proof put forth by the democrats in their attempt to hang Rumsfeld, for they abandoned facts a long time ago. They have switched to a strategy of repeating unfounded mantras until they seep into the public consciousness as truth. The problem is, the only people listening any more come from their quickly eroding base.

One thing I do give Rangel credit for is not accusing Rumsfeld (yet) of being racist. Perhaps there's hope for the Al Sharpton of Congress.
