DONALD RUMSFELD DEAD AT 88 YEARS: ADIEU MR KNOWN UNKNOWN.

ICHEOKU says he was a character in absolutism, very confident of himself, optimally self assured and unapologetically American. He was a statesman extraordinaire who dutifully served his country in various capacities. While his fans say he discharged his duties excellently very well, his detractors will dismiss him as an arrogant blood thirsty cocky individual who plunged America into two needless and avoidable wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. 

ICHEOKU says loves his playful use of words, his famed "known unknown" which most people will remember him for; he sort of became a wordsmith because of it. "There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. These are things we don't know we don't know.  

ICHEOKU says Donald Rumsfeld was a  great man and will be remembered for different things and for different reasons by so many different people, depending on their respective politics. He died of infirmities of old age and now headed to the real unknown unknown that is the other side. The former two time defense secretary was 88 years old. Rest on Rummy. Adieu.
