I've had it with the "didn't bother to read it" excuse because NO WAY does that excuse these incompetents lying jerks. Politically, (Iraq inmate torture scandal is) worse than the debate over weapons of mass destruction, which often hinges on divergent interpretations of murky intelligence. But this scandal comes with pictures, irrefutable evidence to anybody on the street. And these are pictures that seriously undercut the President's stated mission in the Middle East. kansascity.com Bush wants to woo Muslims abroad, but it's tough to sell America as the beacon of human rights when some American soldiers have been caught abusing human rights. And it's tough for a President to boast that America has shut down a dictator's "torture rooms" when American soldiers have been caught engaging in torture. A damning internal Pentagon report was completed three months ago; it detailed "numerous incidents of sadistic, blatant, and wanton criminal abuses." So the question today for Rumsfeld (updating the old Watergate terminology) is: What did he know, and when did he know it? But he may look bad no matter how it plays out, because either he read the report and did nothing (undercutting his fabled reputation as a take-charge manager), or he didn't bother to read it

say Cheney and Rove both look like Nazi cabinet members is preposterous and insulting - which is exactly what you wanted Christ was apolitical per biblical writings, not liberal Drudge and Coulter are gay per the reports - what reports? GOP......they are all draft-dodgers - hardly true I know God and God did not tell Bush to invade Iraq - maybe you talk to god, but Bush didn't, he prayed to god for advice stand by your statements - it says much about you
