In the face of the national outcry to bring home the troops, U.S. Senator John McCain, a declared presidential candidate in the 2008 elections, is proposing an increase in U.S. forces in Iraq. He wants the military presence in that country ramped up, not drawn down. He doesn’t want a downgrade to advisers, he wants more battle groups out there.

The first casualty of the midterm elections in the United States was Donald Rumsfeld, who finally quit as defense secretary as American voters thumbed down the conduct of the war in Iraq. If Rumsfeld had stepped down before the elections, would it have altered the results? No one can say for sure. US President George W. Bush apparently considered the elections a referendum on Rumsfeld, seen as a key architect of the war.

Bush didn’t console himself with the history of what happens to incumbent administrations in mid-term elections during a President’s second term: They tend to lose control of the Congress.

                    [Summary] => Of course, Donald Rumsfeld had to resign after the Democrats gave the Bush Republicans a drubbing in the Midterm and grabbed control of the House of Representatives. The election had been a referendum not only on US President George W. Bush, but on his Defense Secretary who had bungled the war in Iraq, the "occupation" and its aftermath.

When asked about the pullout of the 51-man Philippine contingent, Rumsfeld said:  "Sovereign nations make sovereign decisions just as people do... If you want more of something you reward it and if you want less of it you penalize it.

                    [Summary] => Of course, Donald Rumsfeld had to resign after the Democrats gave the Bush Republicans a drubbing in the Midterm and grabbed control of the House of Representatives. The election had been a referendum not only on US President George W. Bush, but on his Defense Secretary who had bungled the war in Iraq, the "occupation" and its aftermath.

                    [Summary] => US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, speaking just days after the Philippines withdrew its troops from Iraq to save the life of a Filipino hostage, said Wednesday that "weakness is provocative."


When asked about the pullout of the 51-man Philippine contingent, Rumsfeld said:  "Sovereign nations make sovereign decisions just as people do... If you want more of something you reward it and if you want less of it you penalize it.
