Rumsfeld: “If you were to ask me the question, what is it that I know about Pat Tillman’s death?, I would have to asnwer, I don’t know anything about Pat Tillmans death.”
Committee President: “Mr Rumsfeld, we have yet to ask you any questions other than your name; could you please state your name for the record?”

And the odds of Rumsfeld telling the truth would be? (Not to confused with there being a first time for everything.)

The modern M16 can fire three round bursts presumably at a high enough rate of fire to land them in a tight group.

Nice. Good Job. Thank you very much. That definitely clears the air for me.
My regards to the Tillman family and friends.

Exhume Sgt Tillmans remains and have a civilian Forensic Pathologist examine for evidence of close proximity discharge of the weapon that fired three rounds in a small pattern in Tillmans frontal forehead.
First reported to be a 50 Caliber round. It was obviously not. A 50 Cal would have blown his head completely off.
Three rounds from a distance even from a high rate automatic weapon fired by an expeert rifleman would not place the rounds in a tight pattern. the first round would drive his head in opposite the force deflecting the next two rounds farther apart. If the wounds are in a tight pattern, it suggests one round knocked him down and the next two rounds were fired from above him as he lay mortally wounded.
That would be murder.

Yup, for all the good that will do.
Report thisWe already have seen his willingness to lie to the public on a regular basis, so now he will tell the truth.
Just looked outside. ‘Tain’t no pigs flying, yet.

Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends, we’re so glad you could attend come inside, come inside. - with apologies to ELP.
Report thisIn the center ring we have, Don Rumsfeld aka Rummy. He will amaze the audience with a wide range of improvisational renditions of the truth which will baffle and amuse the wax figures of Congress and leave the media and casual onlookers in awe.
Ladies and gentlemen of the audience, thank you for coming, please drive home safely - you have witnessed your tax dollars at “work”. Move along, move along.
