During the testimony today by Rumsfeld and others:
Sen. Kennedy: There have been a series of gross errors and mistakes. Those were on your watch. Isn't it time for you to resign?
Rumsfeld: Senator, I've offered my resignation to the President twice [emphasis mine]. And he's declined that he would prefer that he not accept it. And that's his call.
I must admit I have not watched this all that closely. I recall very often hearing calls for his resignation, but never hearing about him actually making that offer to the president. Anyone have any idea when these "two" times were?
