Rummy Held Hostage, Day 5

The Get-Rumsfeld drumbeat grows louder. The Bush crew is already taking heat from the Pentagon and in the polls, and Tony Blair is finding himself even worse off: Prominent MPs are telling him publicly to get out of Iraq.

The luckier Bush, surrounded at home by his own Elite Republican Guard, faces no such incivility from ostensible foes in his own government. One of the Democrats who did dare to say boo when the president launched his invasion, Tom Daschle, inexplicably chose this week to say he was sorry for the timing of his remarks. That's the kind of opposition party the people lust to see.
