March 27, 2003 | WASHINGTON (AP) -- Richard Perle, a former Reagan administration Pentagon official, resigned Thursday as chairman of the Defense Policy Board that is a key advisory arm for efense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld.
In a brief written statement, Rumsfeld thanked Perle for his service and made no mention of why Perle resigned. He said he had asked Perle to remain as a member of the board.
"He has been an excellent chairman and has led the Defense Policy Board during an important time in our history," Rumsfeld said. "I should add that I have known Richard Perle for many years and know him to be a man of integrity and honor."
Perle was an assistant secretary of defense during the Reagan administration. He took the advisory
board chairman's post early in Rumsfeld's tenure.

In other words this thread is much ado about nothing.
Nothing to see here, nothing of even remote interest. Just a liberal effort to try to find scandal where none exists, what a suprise.
