Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren hosted an extended interview with Donald Rumsfeld, during which the former Defense Secretary expressed his opposition to the proposed Syria intervention and accused President Obama of trying to “blame everybody or anybody” for the situation in which he finds himself. When Van Susteren brought up Obama’s statement that the international community, not he alone, drew a “red line” on chemical weapons, Rumsfeld said, “You’re kidding, I didn’t see that.” When he recovered from his shock, Rumsefeld said, “This president has tried to blame everybody or anybody, for everything. And leadership requires that you stand up, take a position, provide clarity, and take responsibility. I can’t imagine him saying that he didn’t draw the red line. He did draw a red line. We have ears!”
