He's going to apologize for not giving them a heads-up. I'm not into apologizes, but if that's what the babies in Congress want, I guess it won't hurt to give it to them.

I've got to agree with you Poohbah. There is no excuse for what happened in that prison. I'm sorry it happened too.

And APOLIGIZING is going to make it better how?! They are acting like a bunch of wimps. Why don't we just sit back and let them KILL US the same way the jerk Clinton did for EIGHT YEARS! It's a WAR! My family, friends and neighbors are going to DIE so we can APOLOGIZE?!
We can either fight a war or become WIMPS! We can't even bomb Sadr on Friday because of his RELIGION! Give me a break!!!!!!!

Here's my big problem with all this. First I agree the treatment shown in the pictures is disgraceful and uncalled for.
Having said that, the piling on by the media, and the Dems (but I repeat myself) not to mention the rest of the world smacks of rank opportunism that long ago ceased being about the prisoners or the soldiers. It is the latest branch to flay the Bush administration and attempt to bring it down at any cost. In this case, the cost is our very real war on terror. If Kerry wins it will be replaced by a phony show-war and the UN will be back in business full time (at least now they're running for cover).
Yes, investigate the case, try the perps fairly, punish the guilty and then move on!
Unless Rumsfeld ordered the abuse, he should not apologize, not when the media and Dems intend on wielding such an apology as a club. If a sincere apology would help and we could proceed, fine, but I don't believe it for a second.

Right you are. It amazes me when folks try to rationalize this stuff.
