.......And Then There Is Mr. Rumsfeld



Where's that mad hat when you need it:


Iraq is "statistically" no safer today than it was at the end of the war, Donald Rumsfeld, US defence secretary, has admitted.......

In an interview with Sir David Frost on BBC2's Newsnight last night, Mr Rumsfeld was asked whether the security situation had improved since the day after the war ended.

"Well, statistically no. But clearly it has been getting better as we've gone along," he replied.


And if you fall down the rabbit hole tomorrow and land on your head, statistically you will have the same number of limbs as you have today, even if you do have brain damage.

Update: And then there is the Heritage Foundation.
