He has to apologize. NY Times is reporting on pictures of DEAD Iraqi prisoners who appeared to be mistreated. If Rumsfeld looks like he's hiding, he's out the door before the convention.
As much as we want it to go away, this won't. The whole thing is nauseating. We've lost a ton of leverage and Old Europe is rejoicing. This can't drag on.

It will still drag on because the creeps in the media will see to it. Hillary Clinton will make sure of that. If we start giving in to them every time they say then we might as well hand John Kerry/Hillary Clinton the keys to the White House. I am not going to stand up for people who think giving in and trying to be nice to jerk politicians who could care less about this country is the way to get things done. IT IS NOT! They don't EVER stop trashing this country EVER for political gains. I'm SICK of it!

Those are unproven at this point and could be Iraqis injured in the war or from their own actions. If Rumsfield wants to apologize that Arabs have been humiliated by some abuse like being photographed with panties on their heads, that's okay.

Altho this is a mess....and apologies really are necessary, I think we should all be grateful for the fact that it could backfire on Kerry...and more importantly, the timing is in our favor. There are still 6 months left until the election...time enough for this to cool off.
