Rumsfeld keeps ghastly 9/11 souvenirs
Source: Truthera.com

The Justice Department investigation that criticized FBI agents for taking souvenirs from the World Trade Center site also found that Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and a high-ranking FBI official kept items from the Sept. 11 attack scenes.

Excuse me? What the hell is Rumsfeld doing taking souvenirs from 9/11. First off, I must question the legality of this. Wouldn’t a piece of the airplane be considered a part of the crime scene? The whole 9/11 report and documentation is gnarled to death with inconsistency but hell, let’s take some evidence for the road.

Sure, some might think it would be easy to overreact but let’s get real. This isn’t some random citizen - its the former Secretary of Defense. I want to hear your comments.

For those who doubt that a plane hit the pentagon, maybe you can call Rumsfeld and he’ll prove it to you:

What a sick motherfucker. He probably keeps human teeth from the Holocaust and the bullet that killed JFK as souvenirs, too.

3. I bet the Chimp has a few souvenirs from 911
It was the best thing that happened during his failed presidency.

4. Well, anytime someone creates something, they like to keep some little tidbit
to remind them of a good job well done.

In this case, Rummy was part of a group of criminals who pulled off perhaps the biggest Wag the Dog moment in history, and fooled millions. I guess he feels he's entitled. :(

6. Many serial killers keep souveniers from their crimes
They use the souveniers to remind them of the thrill they felt while committing their crimes.

8. Didn't that used to be called evidence tampering? I mean
if I picked up a rifle from the Grassy Knoll or a knife from the Nicole Brown Simpson murder scene and kept them as souvenirs, I'd be in a little trouble.

11. wannabe's
The whole lot of 'em are nothing but armchair cowboys. The concept of honor is totally foreign to them. Just like the commander/decider keeps Saddam's pistols in his office, rummy needs some tangible object in his possession so he can pretend that he's a man. Many male rightwingers, Newt and Limbaugh come immediately to mind, after avoiding military service love to talk big and show off their compensation souveniers. I spit on all of them.

12. the worst part is, this is a relatively old story
he kept gassing on about how it "reminded" him of how we needed to have "resolve" in the Warren Terra, including incinerating babies so their fat melts off in a puddle, etc., etc.
