TIL that Donald Rumsfeld was the 3rd Director of the Office of Economic Opportunity. This office was created to fight the "War on Poverty". Obviously, he didn't win the war.

Maybe he won, the US population lost?

I think that you're correct. It certainly depends upon your perspective, and I doubt the Saidit community agrees with much that Rumsfeld did/does.

BTW: I learned of this little nugget from Unwelcome Guests episode 701 (I think).

In my opionion, Unwelcome Guests is a more sophisticated version of The Corbett Report, because while the content is similar, UWG presents more of the original source material and doesn't tell you what to think about the info (at least less often). So, more experienced listeners can better form their own opinions with the facts presented.

The Corbett Report is more suited for less experienced audiences, and is more of a crash course of info that can quickly help uninformed audiences catch up on enough of the facts to make informed opinions.

Unwelcomed Guests gets a score of 12/10 for quality and content. Respect!

The notable exception is the man-made climate change content, cause that's another hoax. Demonstrably; given the hockey stick hooligan refused to submit his source data. That's the only legit reason to hide that info. :-/
