Somehow, cuckoo references seem appealing vis-a-vis Mr. Rumsfeld. One could call the whole Iraq strategy "cuckoo," but we'd be insulting our avian friends. Rumsfeld is one of the fellows who, despite some sound military advice from military men such as General Colin Powell, helped get us into this parlous situation. Much like the cuckoo, he laid the fighting men and women of the US and UK (and others) in Iraq's nest. And now, the "tit" is surely caught in the wringer! (Talk about mixing one's metaphors!)
