Here’s a classic Rumsfeld quote, regarding the abuse and torture of detainees under his command:
“To date there have been approximately 370 criminal investigations into the charges of misconduct involving detainees” since Sept. 11, 2001.
Now recall that that’s a defense of his record. The real question is: if a defense secretary has presided over a military detention system in which 370 separate criminal investigations of prisoner abuse have taken place, what on earth is he still doing in his job?
