Although I did find this interesting...

From your "article"

Saddam's torture chambers may be closed, but the president should be embarrassed to even mention the phrase "torture chamber" and Iraq in the same sentence this week. One Iraqi prisoner allegedly abused at the U.S.-run prison Abu Ghraib say he preferred Saddam's brand of torture to what the American troops meted out.


Amazing...I wonder if this guy expressed the same outrage when terrorists in Iraq were dragging charred American bodies through the streets. My guess would be that this author was probably attempting to link the burn victims to some "evil" american company and assumed that these victims deserved it. Sorry, but I find this kind of commentary offensive.

Sorry, AS, but the bias is just dripping from your source.

ON THE RECORD: BUSH, ROVE, CARD RIP KERRY IN NEW BOOK; PRESIDENT VOWS TO MAKE KERRY 'REGRET' DISPARAGING WAR COALITION

President Bush vows to make John Kerry “regret” disparaging the coalition that liberated Iraq, a new book set for release next week will reveal.

In exclusive interviews with President Bush and lengthy, one-on-one, on-the-record sessions with his closest aides, bestselling author Bill Sammon threatens to “out-Woodward” Woodward, who convinced only Bush and Donald Rumsfeld to speak on the record.

MISUNDERESTIMATED: The President Battles Terrorism, John Kerry, and the Bush Haters," has been obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT.

[The book was ranked #49 on the AMAZON hit parade Wednesday afternoon.]

Hot on the heels of a wave of Bush-bashing tomes, MISUNDERESTIMATED, released next week by REGAN BOOKS, takes readers inside the Oval Office for historic decisions of war and peace -- from a pro-Bush point of view!

Sammon quotes the president plotting to beat the Massachusetts Democrat by turning his own words against him.

Bush reveals, for the first time, why “I deserve a second term” and how he is encouraging Kerry to “misunderestimate” him.

Rove details for Sammon – Senior White House Correspondent for The Washington Times and political analyst for Fox News Channel – the Bush campaign's strategy to paint Kerry as a condescending elitist whose “blatant” attempts to capitalize on his Vietnam experience will ultimately backfire.

Card, the White House Chief of Staff, goes further by deriding Kerry as a JFK “wannabe” who lacks the mettle to be president!

On-the-record: Bush faults his own father for having “cut and run early” from Iraq after the Gulf War in 1991.

"I think freedom will prevail, so long as the United States and allies don’t give the people of Iraq mixed signals, so long as we don’t cower in the face of suiciders, or do what many Iraqis still suspect might happen, and that is cut and run early, like what happened in ’91," Bush tells Sammon.

• On-the-record: Card, who has worked for both Bushes, describes “43” as an action-oriented Texan with street smarts, while “41” is the consummate diplomat who governed “without bravado or braggadocio.”

• On the way to his infamous landing on an aircraft carrier, Bush toyed with his Secret Service agent by intentionally shaking the plane from side to side and then nosing downward so sharply they lifted out of their seats.

• The president's daughters, Barbara and Jenna, feared he would not survive his Thanksgiving visit to Baghdad, the secrecy of which was nearly compromised when First Lady Laura Bush inadvertently asked an out-of-the-loop Secret Service agent for her husband's location!

• On-the-record: Powell declares: “The press is fixated on Vietnam.” This unhealthy obsession, according to Bush aides, threatens to influence the president's contest with Kerry, a decorated Vietnam veteran.

• Months before Howard Dean's “I Have a Scream” speech, Rove quietly produced a TV spot featuring an earlier Dean outburst and found that even Democratic focus groups were turned off by the anger of the Bush haters.
