Who?

From today's New York Times; a U.S. Marine sergeant in Iraq tells his soldiers that widely-criticized U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has been fired by President Bush:

The sergeant went upstairs to tell his marines, just as he had informed them the day before that the Republican Party had lost control of the House of Representatives and that Congress was in the midst of sweeping change.

“Rumsfeld’s out,” he said to five marines sprawled with rifles on the cold floor.

Lance Cpl. James L. Davis Jr. looked up from his cigarette. “Who’s Rumsfeld?” he asked.
