More from Senator Inhofe -- the outrage of the RATs was another orchestrated maneuver IMHO. According to Senator Inhofe (who I believe), the photos were not that much worse and very few prisoners were in the photos.

That speaks volumes about the agenda of the Congressional RATs -- they do belong in the sewer for what they are attempting to do and that is to undermine this Administration and our military while we are fighting the War on Terrorism. Obviously the beheading of a young man and 9-11 mean nothing to these lowlifes that continue to lie and attack!

More honest talk from Senator Inhofe that puts what the RATs are saying about the additional photos in question. Please make sure this gets around to everyone you know so the truth can get out since the vast majority of the media would rather go with the RAT spin!

This is what i posted in an earlier thread.


Watching FOX and friends this morning i got the impression that the photos viewed by senators really weren't worse than what we've allready seen. It sounds to me like the worst "abuse" was shoving a glow stick up a prisoners butt. My wife preforms worse "tourtures" than that every day at the hospital.

It sounds like there was no rape of prisoners by either Brittish or American soldiers. And the only photos of sex are those taken of sex between soldiers.

I don't know why any democrat would say they are shocked at these photos because it has been the democrats which have taught and encouraged this type of behavior in America and its schools.Inholf is right,these photos are nothing and besides,WHO CARES?

"A lot of the pictures didn't have any of the detainees in them. They showed serious behavioral problems by the seven prison guards"

Since the Dems seemed to back off so quickly after seeing all the photos, and the only person I heard calling for their release was a Republican (at least on the news broadcast I was watching), I'm beginning to wonder if there is credibility in the theory that the pictures reflected the "don't ask, don't tell" policies.

You are very fortunate to have Sen. Inhofe. I was so impressed with him the other day.

I was home all by myself watching the hearing and when he spoke I jumped up and cheered!

I did call his office by the way. And sent a fax yesterday.

The fact that Chuck Schumer said he was against releasing them leads me to believe that they are not much worse than the original photos.

He's betting that their overblown rhetoric about them will be more damaging than the actual images.

I just heard it said on Fox that Lynndie England was shown to have multiple sex partners. I knew about the guy who is supposedly her baby's father, but this was first I'd heard of this.

Note the the local ABC station (KOCO) deleted the portion where he said he was outraged at the outrage. I had to explain the context to dear hubby.

I was watching Hannity and Colmes the other night (5/10) and Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif. basically told Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., that Ted Kennedy had no business opening his mouth regarding much of anything considering what he did to Mary Jo Kopechne. I thought "about damn time" someone said this and the next day I called Rohrabacher's Washington office and talked to a very nice young lady. She said that "Rohrabacher pulls no punches and that the truth hurts".

Kennedy, like a lot of the people on the left, is just insane.

Oh, and and another thing. Why are Democrats such fakes? I'm not speaking of there obvious fakery on issues. I'm talking about the physical fakery. John Kerry has had all sorts of work done to his face. Botex, etc. Hillary has had face lifts. That Pelosi woman looks like they jammed a stick thru the skin at the top of her head and started turning the stick round and round. Joe Biden has DOLL HAIR. DOLL HAIR! Al Gore must have been the only guy to buy that "instant hair" spray they used to sell on the TV informercials. Oh, and remember Al Gore and his "crotch sock" on the cover of Rolling Stone?

And Ted Kennedy. Look at these fake blue eyes.

I mean, really, if a person doesn't know what they are how can anyone expect them to know who there are?

Inhofe: "...actually nothing much different than we've already seen. I was surprised. I was expecting to see things that were a whole lot worse."

It was Republican Lindsey Graham who was out last week crying before a microphone that the world was ending, the worst is yet to come, the maiming, torturing, raping, pillaging the villages [ok, maybe not pillaging...]

I have to agree with Rush on this. Compared to the Nick Berg real torture and atrocity, the pix are blown well out of proportion.

Jay Rockerfeller, one who, by the way, was a recipient of one of those 17 January letters about prison abuse, was on FoxNews this morning spinning the lie about how bad the abuse (American side) was. He failed to mention the Berg torture and abuse. And he failed to mention he took no action back in January when he received the letter about prison abuses.

As for the prison abuse photos, some in the military acted like adolescents. They will be punished. To make much more out of this is political grandstanding. Where real crimes were committed, the perps will be punished.

I like hearing from Inhofe but am sometimes afraid that Nickles has become too staid and safe. I lived in Oklahoma for 20+ years and wrote him recently that he should use his status plus the fact that he has no reelection worries anymore to ruffle some feathers and get the Memogate memos investigated. He never wrote back nor has taken any action I am aware of.

PS - I wrote our Texas senators on various issues, too, but do not like Kay Bailey that much; our new fellow is looking good, though (darn brain f_rt on his name).

Ron Wyden's comments on these new pics is the exact opposite of Senator Inhofe's. Wyden said they were much worse than he expected. Hmmmmmm.....who to believe. /sarcasm

A little off the subject, but what a great editorial cartoon - not only in content, but style. I love that '30's "Smokey Stover" style of art!
