I don't applaud "Rummy" for jack *****. He had his ass handed to him when he testified because he's completely out of the loop and out of touch with every aspect of this war. So many people are calling for his resignation, he had to run to Iraq to escape the heat.
More directly, a blanket statement like "get whatever information you can within in the rules," opens up another big can of worms. What rules? Whose rules? What's the rule? Don't kill the bastards? That reassures that he's out of touch w/o giving specific rules.
Say that to the kid that comes to date your daughter: "Do whatever you want within the rules." Yeah, real direct.
And what valuable information? LOL. Whatever information they have hasn't made the war proceed any better.
