Rumsfeld: "I didn't advocate invasion, I wasn't asked."

If you have read Woodward's "Plan of Attack," then you would know how deeply involved Rumsfeld was in the planning of the Iraq war. He systematically cut troops to the insufficient levels they were at the time of the invasion. Colin Powell blasts the size of the army and admits mistakes were made. Not so with Donald. Rumsfeld now tells us that it was almost impossible to impose order on Iraq and his response to the question was, "We'll never know."
