Stupid Mr. Rumsfeld

Quoting Mr. Rumsfeld's opinion on guantanamo detainees who refuse to eat:

"There are a number of people who go on a diet where they don't eat for a period and then go off of it at some point. And then they rotate and other people do that,"

if it was a political rethoric, he has put himself in a position similar to dumb and dumber. How could he say that stupid word "diet" in a situation like this. He should have made up a more sensible respon that does not embarass american political leaders, by making the list of lies told by him and his fellow politicians much longer.

I'm not rying to be nit-picking in this sense, but if people in such a situation refuse to eat, it must be an issue in that horrible place. For instance, moslems do eat pork, they should respect such thing by giving them proper food, cheap vegetarian dish would do better than meat (this is just my own thought). I'm not expecting those soldiers to treat them properly because it's just a dream that never come true (because they are all robot without heart and soul).

But the thing is, i can't understand why American tax payers keep on doing this, paying taxs for the purpose of :
- Buying weapons for war in Iraq
- Feeding Guantanamo detainees
- Giving hi-salary to Mr. "beating around the" BUSH and his "smart and honest" friends
- Supporting young american soldiers who will soon die for oil

Back to Mr. Rumsfeld, please do not assume that people do not know what are you trying to explain. You are not smart enough to fool people, because they know that you are a liar. do not assume that what you said about WMD has been forgotten. once you said X and the next day you said Y. Hmmmm if you think people forget it, your guardian angels keep a neat and tidy record of your deeds, for sure.
