    Ok, so the outgroup is bad. Glad we’ve finally established that.

    Any comments on Rumsfeld’s life?

    I read his 2011 memoir and found it interesting. I’m sure I reviewed it here back then.

    I want to see the Errol Morris documentary. I enjoyed his McNamara film immensely.

    Ditto. It was a really interesting read.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      That’s because you read TNCR, the gateway drug for idiotic posts.

        Leftist pop culture is not the outgroup, it's the ingroup.

        Education is extremely important.

          Rummy? In hindsight, Iraq was a partial mistake, but not a total one. Other than that, his career is pretty stellar.

                Right, just for the dominant political pop culture of America. The posters above are not part of that.

                    Teen Vogue? Nothing so benign as "journalism". That right there is pop culture.

                      Many news sites called him a war criminal. So was he convicted? If so can someone share a link?

                      If not why would that not be defamation of character?
