The final investigatory report said the Justice Department inspector general confirmed Rumsfeld "has a piece of the airplane that flew into the Pentagon (news - web sites)." The Associated Press obtained a copy of the report Friday.

Investigators learned Rumsfeld had the airplane part after an FBI agent saw a television interview in which the defense secretary was "holding up pieces of building from the WTC and the Pentagon, saying he kept those items on his desk to remember the terrorist attacks."

...

The Justice Department investigation also collected testimony that Pasquale D'Amuro, FBI Director Robert Mueller's executive assistant director for terrorism until last summer, asked a supervisory agent to "obtain a half dozen items from the WTC debris so the items could be given to dignitaries."

You fucking ghoulish cocksucker.

I dunno, it's not he's ramming it up his ass every day. At least I hope.

Ned, he might as well be.

Oh, well in that case, photoshop away.

(I agree it's beyond lame but I can't say I'm surprised either.)

Now, Ned, that's just not an image I needed in my head.

Having something like that around is just like automatic bad luck. Plus if he doesn't watch out a witch might steal a little piece of it and use it for some kind of potion of mass destruction, or make strange noises appear over Ground Zero.

Wasn't the man in the fuckin' Pentagon when it got hit? Shouldn't that be enough?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 14 March 2004 03:44 (twenty-two years ago)

I wonder who the other half dozen lucky winners were?

Pretty fun to see Rumsfeld caught in a lie on national tv:
