"Would an honourable person in that situation feel honour bound to offer their resignation?" That's really the bottom line, isn't it? And I paraphrased Rumsfeld incorrectly; not 'probably'. He said (and I quote) "It's possible", but as you say dianavan, the damage has been done. CBS has said that they held the pictures back twice at the request of the Pentagon, which spanned a period of about a week and a half, I think. CBS showed the pictures only after telling the Pentagon that they were about to come into the public domain, elsewhere. Seems they could have sold a lot of cars and a lot of toothpaste... ... a lot earlier. Jim
