YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDuring his C-SPAN Q&A interview, former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld comments on New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd's review of his book which included, "Donald Rumsfeld has only 815 pages — including a scintillating List of Acronyms — to explain why he was not responsible when Stuff Happened. His memoir, "Known and Unknown," is like a living, breathing version of the man himself: very thorough, highly analytical and totally absent any credible self-criticism." Rumsfeld responds, "False. She must not have read it. Anyone who's read it...knows that I've tried in there to talk about things that were disappointments or things that one might regret and I did regret or do regret. I think what I've done is to try to set out not only my recollections and my opinions but also documentation that supports it." He continues to comment on Dowd, "She has a fixation apparently and she's cynical." Watch the complete interview Sunday, February 20 at 8:00 p.m. & 11:00 p.m. ET on C-SPAN.
