Jason Linkins at Huffington Post has a shocker:

Rumsfeld On 2006 Election: "The Correction For That...Is An Attack"

An ongoing exploration of the documents related to the Pentagon's "message force multipliers" program has unearthed a clip of former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld suggesting that America, having voted the Democrats back into Congressional power, could benefit from suffering another terrorist attack, and doing so in the presence of the very same military analysts who went on to provide commentary and analysis of the Iraq War...

by far the most extraordinary part of this luncheon is the antipathy the gathered members exhibit toward the American people for having the temerity to vote the Democrats back into power. When Lt. Gen. Michael DeLong bemoans the lack of "sympathetic ears" on Capitol Hill, Rumsfeld offers that the American people lack "the maturity to recognize the seriousness of the threats." What's to be done? According to Rumsfeld, "The correction for that, I suppose, is [another] attack."

Think about this - the man whose job it was (twice) to defend America against attack wants terrorists to attack America to punish American voters for electing Democrats???

But it was not Rumsfeld's thinking alone. It was apparently shared by all the TV generals who were present.

This goes beyond a religious leader saying "God Damn America" - our top generals want a terrorist attack??? 

This takes partisanship to the level of mental illness. Attaturk is right to call them sociopaths. Either that or they are simply traitors.

Is this how the entire Bush-Cheney administration, Pentagon brass, and Republican Party feel? Do they all want terrorists to attack the U.S. to punish voters for electing Democrats?

This is a huge and deeply disturbing story - reporters and Congressional Democrats must get to the bottom of it.
