Rumsfeld is out. He is resigning. Robert Gates is succeeding him.

The guy was very committed to Texas A&M, declining nominations for service from this administration in the past. Apparently he was highly sought after, and finally accepted to come back to Washington.

The administration is responding quickly to the voter dissatisfaction of the war in Iraq. I hope that Gates is better liked and wiser in his dealing with the war.
