Signers: 56162
To President George Bush, Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert and Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist:
We, the people of these United States, rightfully petition our President on behalf of Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld’s continued service to our country. In spite of the torrent of political and media attacks in the wake of events at Abu Ghraib, we urge the President’s continued support of one of our nation’s most distinguished present-day patriots. In the context of the ongoing war on terror in general, and on the warfront in Iraq in particular, Secretary Rumsfeld’s continued service is invaluable. His response to Abu Ghraib, since January, has been prompt, professional and altogether commendable. An election year or not, wartime is no time for scapegoating, and we deeply admire the President’s constancy in support of Donald Rumsfeld.
