I am believing that the so called abuses of detainees were nothing more than what the military does routinely. It changes from war to war, but the effect is the same. Sleep deprivation is not torture, nor is showing Iraqi terrorists in the nude being laughed at by women MP. In fact, it is a logical maneuver to soften up Muslim terrorists to show that they are very vunerable.

What galls me is that the women will have to take the fall for orders from higher up.

And it frightens me that when we are in a war for our very lives, our politicians go before the nation and apologize for us.

We have met the enemy...and it is us conservatives.

A caller to KSFO pointed out that the hoods are to keep the prisoners from spitting on the guards. We use them for the same reason in US prisons...

I didn't see your post until this morning babe. I agree completely. If you ask me, it's time to start playing dirty like the Clintonistas and leftist commie crowd plays. I happened to flip by CNN last night and Russert is up there flapping his gums like a mad man about "this goes to the very heart of what we are as nation" blah blah. Had to switch at that point.
