Evidence of the Rumsfeld disconnect from any type of reality continues to mount. Donald says don't confuse me with the facts! And I know better than those actually being shot at!

Millitary officials on the ground in Iraq say:

"What is significant now, American military officials say, is that foreign fighters continue to play an active role in Iraq and continue to be recruited for pay or to join in a new struggle against the Americans. This indicates a considerable degree of organization behind the resistance against the American presence."

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, who is sitting in Washington D.C. says:

"The attacks are deliberate attempts to kill Americans, but they are not well coordinated by any central leader or group, Rumsfeld said at a Pentagon news conference Wednesday."
