Is Rumsfeld in denial, is he from this earth? In this article he uses Hitlers method of rising to power as a rational to deny democracy to Iraq while his regime used the same technique to come to power and continues to use them to solidify thier power. What planet are these being from?

WASHINGTON -- Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said Thursday that the transition to a democratic government in Iraq can't be rushed - and cited the rise of Adolf Hitler as an example of what could go wrong.

"If you think about it, Adolf Hitler was elected. So elections are not the certain judge. You don't want to have (an) election one time and then a dictator, and go right back to some dictator model," he said after a closed-door briefing with House members.

If elections are so bad will Bush decide we don't need any in 2004 or ever again?
