Rumsfeld attempts to duck accountability: "Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's response last week to a soldier's question about substandard equipment was insulting and disingenuous to the soldier and to the rest of the nation."

...

"That's an appalling distortion of what actually occurred in the build-up to the war. So was Rumsfeld's follow-up comment: "You can have all the armor in the world on a tank and a tank can be blown up." Rumsfeld's effort to deny responsibility for inadequately supplying U.S. troops is astonishing."
