Rumsfeld Heightens Attacks on Bush Critics
Likening them to appeasers of the prewar Nazis, he defends the handling of the Iraq war

SALT LAKE CITY — Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld on Tuesday compared critics of the Bush administration to those who sought to appease the Nazis before World War II, warning that the nation is confronting "a new type of fascism."
Speaking at the American Legion convention here, Rumsfeld delivered his most explicit and extended attacks yet on administration opponents — leading Democrats to accuse him of "campaigning on fear."
By likening today's U.S. foreign policy to that during World War II and the Cold War, Rumsfeld sought to portray skeptics of the Bush administration as being on the wrong side of history. He ridiculed American officials who had hoped to negotiate with Adolf Hitler.
"Once again, we face similar challenges in efforts to confront the rising threat of a new type of fascism," Rumsfeld said. "But some seem not to have learned history's lessons."
He continued, "Can we truly afford to believe that, somehow or someway, vicious extremists could be appeased?"

Funny, when he speaks of extremists I feel he really is speaking about his bosses and himself. While Islamic radicals do worry me, the fascism that Rummy is trying to push on America is a closer danger. Rummy's words also might show that the his bosses are really worried about November and are trying revive their base and scare everyone else.
NOTHING is funny about that dude! however beach bum, iknow what you mean (AND agree with you)
