Rumsfeld's Questioner: 'It's All About Duty'

Spc. Thomas Wilson, the National Guardsman who quizzed Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld about a lack of armor, has apparently always been one to speak up.

"It's all about duty, and he felt compelled to be over there," his ex-wife, Regina Wilson, told reporters in Chattanooga, Tenn.

She said that she and her ex voted for President Bush last month and supported him "100 percent," but she said she was not impressed with Rumsfeld's answer yesterday. "He seemed like he was stuttering and stumbling, like he was caught off guard. Rumsfeld's answer seemed like he was sidestepping around the question."

Wilson isn't shy when he sees a problem to fix, according to her.

"He is always like that. I don't think he understands the concept of biting one's tongue. It wouldn't matter if it was Bush himself standing there. He would have dissed him the same."
