        While the appearances of politicians can be deceptive, I think Rumsfeld was probably one of the better ones.

        Soon after the airliner hit the building, Secretary Donald Rumsfeld left his office, went out a 1st Floor emergency exit, and hurried to the affected area. There he joined a stretcher party and helped carry injured persons to a medical treatment area. Once satisfied that enough help was on hand, the Secretary returned to the building, where during the course of the morning he spoke by telephone with the President and the Vice President

                  Sad to hear

                  Wasn't so long ago we were watching their rockumentary - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9015306/

                  Liked their 80s + later stuff, but the earlier songs were just pure blues-rock at its best.

                    Saw them at Wembley Arena in 1986, on the Afterburner tour.
                    Enjoyable evening! Remember that Dusty's white furry guitar span around once, but refused the second time towards the end of playing 'Legs'. Didn't seem to phase him one bit.

                    RIP Dusty.......
