He gave up after not even a year. We started talking about invading Iraq not even a year after we invaded Afghanistan. I’m sorry but Iraq was symbolic of the Bush administration’s pigheadedness. And I stand by my statement that jealously drives your party’s perception of the Obama administration’s foreign and national security policies. The Iraq invasion was not only a mistake but poorly planned as well with no understanding of what the aftermath would be.

I believe Rumsfeld’s initial reaction was to try and find a way to tie the attack to Iraq.
