It’s not his memoir. It’s a biography by Jon Meacham.

There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don’t know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don’t know we don’t know.

History already has. This latest book mentioned just adds one more opinion to a growing pile of the judgements against the duo.

Has Rumsfeld already signed on to team Jeb! yet? If not, that might be the only thing Jeb! has going for him.

In a just world the flaying would take place tomorrow, preferably carried out by some appreciative Iraqis.

Rumsfeld fired back in a statement to NBC News: "Bush 41 is getting up in years and misjudges Bush 43, who I found made his own decisions."

the rest of the statement was cut off…

it was ‘which Cheney and I spoon fed him along with the cherry picked intelligence… which is what we knew we knew and we ignored the parts that were what we knew we didn’t know’

Rumsfeld always schemed to get 41 out of the picture. During the Nixon administration he urged Nixon, who had a soft spot for George, to send him to China as ambassador. Even his CIA job took him out of the WH power struggle. People think 43 chose Rumsfeld as a reproof of his dad.
