"Why Bush (probably) won't dump Rumsfeld"
Analysis by Fred Kaplan. Pretty good perspective I think.
This bit from Rumsfeld angered me:
Even now, the secretary seems to miss the point. He appears to think the issue is not the torture but the photographs. He didn't tell the president because, as he put it, 'The problem at that point was one-dimensional. It wasn't three-dimensional. It wasn't photographs and video.' At several points in the hearings, he talked about the unique problems posed by 'the information age.'
