I'm not sure I understand the problem here. Wouldn't it be worse if Rummy made himself unavailable to his successor and forced him to "re-invent the wheel" (pardon the trite cliche) on a number of matters? I mean, it's not as if the guy gave his two weeks notice at the local 7-11. I imagine there's an inordinate amount of knowledge transfer that has to happen.

Give it up.

Sam and company apparently would rather he go home and lock the doors and die than have him assist in the transition or be available for debrief on operations still ongoing which Rumsfeld strategized or developed.

It is a matter of hate and ignorance.
