GOP Congressman the latest to join the anti-Rummy/anti-Iraq crowd

What's taken him so long? Is this guy getting desperate to hold onto his job or what? So tell me again who is wrong about the war? Why does Bush/Rummy/Cheney keep attacking the position of the strong majority of Americans, not to mention members of their own party such as party loyalists such as Tiberi and Shays? I'm smellin' chaos and confused messages for the GOP heading into the campaign season. Pity 'bout that.

Tiberi, of Genoa Township, said yesterday that he does not support Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld and thinks new leadership is needed at the Pentagon. He also fired some shots at Bush.

"I can't defend how the president laid out the need for (going to war in Iraq). I don't support Rumsfeld," Tiberi said.

The comments from the three-term congressman came during a meeting before the Dispatch editorial board with challenger Bob Shamansky, whose spokesman revealed that the Bexley Democrat has committed more than $1 million of his own money to the race.

Asked whether Bush has operated above the law regarding government surveillance, Tiberi responded: "He might have."

I guess Congressman Shays of CT, another about face Republican, will have more and more friends as the election heats up.
