Kennedy disses Rumsfeld Kennedy disses Rumsfeld

Sen. Kennedy in an article: Cheney Paints Lamont Victory As Helping Terrorists faults SecDef Rumsfeld:

The comments he made on the result of the Connecticut Democratic primary - that it might encourage "the al-Qaida types" who want to "break the will of the American people in terms of our ability to stay in the fight and complete the task" - are an attack not just on Democrats, but on democracy itself.

Apparently is is beyond the pale for the SecDef to point out that cutting and running would embolden the enemy, when Kennedy has said much worse about Republicans.
