Donald Rumsfeld Reads Philadelphia Inquirer!

The Washington Post got a hold of a bunch of Donald Rumsfeld’s “snowflake” memos, which he dished out to his staff whenever the hell he felt like it.

And it turns out, unlike you, he reads the Inquirer:

On March 20, Rumsfeld ordered a point-by-point analysis of the seven “mistakes” columnist Trudy Rubin wrote about in the Philadelphia Inquirer and a response to her essay — which he wanted to see before it was sent out. Rubin wrote that the war had “gone sour.” “Please have someone find precisely when I said ‘dead-enders’ and what the context was,” he ordered [assistant defense secretary J. Dorrance] Smith in September 2006.

Hopefully, ol’ Rummy still as a subscription, because yesterday’s Jump Start was particularly offensive to the troops.
