The enemy boobytrapped the dead (to be considered wounded) prisoners.

Where is Amnesty International? Where is Red Cross/Crescent? Where is the outrage?

But we can't pour bacon grease on a dead man like Zarqawi because that is "offensive".

Agreed...but it is more Tony Snow's job to slap down the press. The POTUS has more important people to slap around, though, I would like to see him interrupt a press breifing before he leaves office and throw the arse clowns in the WH Press Corps a verbal beating with the facts...he can even draw a picture for the terminally ambivalent.

Since the terrorists are considered terrorists, nothing they do is outrageous. Now us, if we put panties on someones head, that's outrageous.

The terrorists beat our men into hamburger meat and not a word from UN agencies and the MSM. Do you know why ? Because they support the other side.

"The person who should be bringing this up -- everytime a reporter mentions Gitmo or AbuGraib -- is our President."

once the coroner's (?) report is finished as to how Pfc. Thomas Tucker and Kristian Menchaca were killed, hopefully the President will again forcefully draw that bright line for those who will not listen and will not see (thereby unavoidably aiding the terrorists) between what the Geneva Conventions cover and the loss of any standing this enemy has under the Conventions due to their uncivilized and outlaw conduct, while reiterating our determination to finish the mission.

Even Newt Gingrich said what was done to these soldiers was so heinous that the President needs to address it, they virtually cut these men apart, removed their inner organs, etc. and likely while alive.

You know the bleeding heart liberals will blame the soldiers. More is coming forth on how badly these guys were massacred and it should make everyone angry.

I have photos off the net of the killings of the US contractors a year or so ago.

They burned their bodies to a crisp and chopped up the remains with shovels, in front of the cameras .........and the children danced.

A week later no one remembered. Today there is no outrage butttttttt if one of the call-in lines goes down on "American Idol", it's a catastrophe.

I remember that all too well. Our problem is a press that so hates our President that they cannot see the forest for the trees; as evidenced by the NYSlimes and LASlimes today, once again undermining our safety for their oneupsmanship.
