"You and the rest of the nutjob Left have totally conflated the incidents at Abu Ghraib with the legitimate interrogations carried out under American law on three terrorists who killed 3000 Americans."

Not even vaguely true. Those are two separate issues, although there is a link. We had contractors at Abu Ghraib who were engaging in precisely the activities that those soldiers were convicted of. Where do you think they got the idea to do a lot of the things they did?
