Robert M. Gates was sworn in today as the secretary of defense, replacing Don Rumsfeld at the post.
In his acceptance speech, he thanked Rumsfeld for distinguished service and wished the Rumsfeld family the best.
He also towed the usual Bush line that we cannot fail in the middle east (Iraq) because failure would come back to haunt Americas for decades.
The text from his swearing in ceremony is HERE.
