Things:

It turns out you can get a transcript of Rumsfeld's recent interview on ABC's This Week over at the DoD. Here is our favorite exchange (emphasis added, of course!):

STEPHANOPOULOS: They've found weapons? [in Iraq]

RUMSFELD: They have found things -- they have not found things that when one aggregates them and looks at them that they would say, "Aha, there it is," but they are finding things, and then what they do is, they take the materials, and they send them to several different laboratories to be tested. Then it comes back, and it's not what you thought it might be. They send some more out, and it comes back, and it's a dual use. It could be this or it could be that -- something civilian or something military, and that process just -- we just have to be patient.
