Rumsfield Apologizes
5-7-2004
Washington, DC - Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfield offered his
apologies to the abused Iraqi prisoners today. "Sorry about
mistreating you while you were in prison," said Rumsfield in a
televised press conference.
"Also, sorry about the whole invading your country thing," he said.
Rumsfield ended the statement by tapping his chest, saying "my bad",
and flashing a peace sign.
The abused Iraqi prisoners were unavailable for comment.
