Try eating some prunes, Mr. Secretary

If you enjoy chaos and confusion, then you cannot beat a Donald Rumsfeld press conference for sheer entertainment value. First, you get the sense he does not have a clue as to how to fix the Iraq debacle. The question and answer session takes you beyond clueless. I like the way he attacks the questioner and their motives as a first line defense on every question.

If someone asked him what he had for breakfast, he would first accuse the questioner of trying to put words in his mouth for political motives during a political season. Then he would ramble on for five minutes wondering what breakfast really was anyway.

I would like a chance at a question. Why are things so fucked up in Iraq, how do you plan to unfuck it, and have you tried eating prunes with your breakfast cereal? Inquiring minds like mine want to know.
