Boehner blames Generals for Iraq failures

Boehner:*Let's not blame Iraq woes on Rumsfeld - CNN.com

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- House Majority Leader John Boehner's call for critics to lay off Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld because the generals are responsible for the conduct of the war in Iraq has sparked outrage among Democrats.

In an interview Wednesday on CNN, Boehner said, "Let's not blame what's happening in Iraq on Rumsfeld."

CNN's Wolf Blitzer replied, "But he's in charge of the military."

"The fact is, the generals on the ground are in charge, and he works closely with them and the president," Boehner, an Ohio Republican, said.

Republicans can't figure out who to point their finger at.
It's time for the Republicans to fess up. It's always some else that is to blame according to them.

You can run but you can't hide.

Boehner blames the military, then he says it isn't Rumsfelds fault, who is in charge of those generals.

You little weasles can't have it both ways.

Stop insulting our troops. Rummy is guilty as charged.
