CANCELLED Donald Rumsfeld,Secretary of Defense,Commonwealth Club April 5, 2006

Defense Secretary Rumsfeld has been the Pentagon's top man since President Bush took office in 2001, and he held the same post under President Ford. Secretary Rumsfeld has steered the Pentagon through 9/11, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, a round of base closures and a massive overhaul of the military. Through it all, he's faced tough criticism (including Senator Dianne Feinstein's recent call for his resignation) as well as the unwavering support of his boss, President Bush. Bring your questions for the secretary regarding the war in Iraq, other potential conflicts and the state of the U.S. Armed Services. The Commonwealth Club, America's premier public speaking forum, is a nonpartisan organization that features speakers with a wide range of viewpoints.
