so long, Secretary

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld had his last day on Friday and is making way for new SOD Robert Gates. Yes, Rumsfeld has served as SOD under two different presidents in two different centuries (Gerald Ford in the 70's; George W. Bush in the 2000's) but he was just 10 days shy of becoming the longest serving SOD. That honor still belongs to Robert McNamara.

Rest in Retirement Rummy. See you on the book tour.
