Donald Rumsfeld Wants State Department Powers

From Military.com

Rumsfeld needs a way to get around pesky U.S. foreign policy, so he wants to circumvent the State Department altogether.

It seems Rummy has been pushing this for awhile now. Former Secretary of State Colin Powell said HELL NO! Secretary Condoleezza Rice has called for congressional approval.

Are they fascist pigs or what?

Scary!!! Unfortunately this type of mission creep started in the Clinton Administration. I really do not like the idea of the DoD being used for FEMA's job or the State Department's job.

In a word: No.

They're actually fascist weasels. A fine distinction, that.
