RumSFelD: My Rules for Life (6th in a series) SERVING IN THE WHITE HOUSE (Part 6 of 6)

What the Heck is this? Read THIS post.

--> Note that all quotes titled"rumsfeld sez" comes from a document he created in 2001, entitled, "My Rules for Life" (see bottom of post for original source)<-- $$ Rumsfeld Says $$ 20. The price of being close to the President is delivering bad news. You fail him if you don’t tell him the truth. Others won’t do it.

*** Markbnj says ***
You ain't listening to your OWN rule, Mr. Rumsfeld! Tell him you've failed, and MAKE him accept your resignation and subsequent SUCIDE!

$$ Rumsfeld Says $$
21. You and the White House staff must be and be seen to be above suspicion. Set the right example.
*** Markbnj says ***
Go HERE and learn how to CORRECTLY commit Hara-kiri (literally "stomach cutting"). Make sure your entire Staff, and Especially the Vice President understands to perform Hara-kiri CORRECTLY!
$$ Rumsfeld Says $$
22. The role of White House Chief of Staff is that of a “javelin catcher.” (Jack Watson)
*** Markbnj says ***
And the Role of the Secretary of Defense, is that of the person that ORDERS the seppuku or death of the guilty.

$$ Rumsfeld Says $$
23. Don’t speak ill of your predecessors or successors. You didn’t walk in their shoes.*** Markbnj says ***

AND IF you are lucky, you WILL walk away alive...


$$ Rumsfeld Says $$
24. Remember the public trust. Strive to preserve and enhance the integrity of the office of the Presidency. Pledge to leave it stronger than when you came.
*** Markbnj says ***
Hooo-haa. Public trust? How about Simply admitting your previous mistakes!

$$ Rumsfeld Says $$

25. Don’t blame the boss. He has enough problems
*** Markbnj says ***
That's because YOU deserve a great deal of the blame.
