GQ Articles, Pics, and More on men.style.com (http://men.style.com/gq/features/topsecret - broken link)

Son Don Rumsfeld.. felt it necessary to include bible quotes on intelligence briefings... while we were at war with a Muslim nation.

The amount of dookie in my pants as a result of reading this is beyond measurement.

Yippie.. it looks like the Iraq War was our on version of a siege on antioch.. I guess history does repeat itself.. every 1,000 years or so..

What's new. It's not the first time and it won't be the last time furthermore I would take these articles with a grain of salt, don't forget how they changed INS to Homeland Security, sounds a lot like Nazi Germany, "the fatherland" It's all P.R.

It's PR, to get whatever group on your side. I am PR. I should know. White Liberals love to use terms like, racist, bigot so it connects to blacks and reminds me people of a dark history in American history, therefore either the issue or the opponent must be wrong. Conservatives use apple pie, God bless America, socialist, pinko. It's all politics. It's a play on words.

You have two groups pro-abortionist/ anti-abortionist, pro-choice/ pro life. Words images all the same, showing Bush's picture next to Hitler's. It all politics.

What I think is funny is that alot of the things they hated Bush for are being found to be necessary but I dont see no one apologizing to the Bush administration.

So you are saying Rumsfeld included bible quotes on intelligence briefings back in 2003 or around there..

in hopes that in 2009 it would be released and that somehow would be good PR?

1. I'm not quite sure Rumsfeld contains that kind of forethought..

2. I'm not sure its good PR..

For whatever reason whether it be for war or something else, maybe to appease the Christian community that helped them win the election.

I am very happy the United States exist and I am an immigrant. John F. Kennedy was a realist, he would be considered a republican by today's standards

Why not people use scripture in this forum wrong. what's the big deal? I have a problem with people using scripture wrong.
