Love him or hate him, former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld is never boring. Today he gave an interview to Fox News as part of his media blitz to promote his new memoir "Known and Unknown". The book comes out today, and at 800 pages you can use it as a doorstop when you're finished reading it. Rumsfeld is making headlines for his unapologetic attitude when it comes to the way the Bush administration handled the Iraq War. He had a lot of other controversial things to say to Fox News, in addition to calling Guantanamo Bay a "fine operation":
It is an exceedingly well-run prison and the folks down there have done and are doing an excellent job. The heartbreaking thing with respect to Guantanamo is not that there's anything wrong with it. It's one of the finest prison systems in the world. What's awkward is the fact that for whatever reason the administration was incapable of persuading people that that was a first-class operation, that they were not torturing people, that they were not hurting people.
The Rumsfeld interview airs tonight on Sean Hannity's program.
