And .. forcing prisoners to strip is a "standard" intimidation technique used in most prisons or lock-ups. But .. it's just that INTIMIDATION, it's not torture. I spent hours and hours sending that information to the media.

I then reminded the media there was plenty of proof of REAL torture in the VIDEOS SADDAM PRODUCED. I explained to them what I HAD SEEN .. a man's hand being cut off .. blood spurting .. the man screaming in horror when he looked down and realized his hand was gone .. I saw another man strapped to a couple of 2x4's while a huge sledge hammer broke his arm in several places causing the man to crumble and writhe in pain .. I saw another man tied to a pole and beaten to the point that you could see the blood running under his skin .. THAT'S TORTURE .. not being stripped naked and having ladies panties put on your head. Has anybody noticed that the media stopped using the word "torture" and switched to "abuse".

Now .. did some of the soldiers get a little carried away .. yes. Was that Rumsfeld's or Bush's explicit order .. NOOOOOO!! And now the committee looking into the prison stuff says it was commanders in the field [and my vote goes to the FEMALE Army Reserve Commander who knew what was going on and looked the other way] - not upper level at the Pentagon and the WH.

Rush has said recently that the democrats are planning to use this supposed "scandal" in order to try to impeach Bush - WHEN HE WINS THE ELECTION .. and no matter how big he wins. I don't know about you .. but I don't think the nation will stand still for it .. I think a lot of us (I know I'm one) are ABOUT DONE WITH THE STINKING DEMOCRATS.

Recently, I've been thinking about the Nixon impeachment charges and I have wondered what the dates are of the break-in (which Nixon covered up), and if the democrats knew that information and waited ON PURPOSE until Nixon was re-elected before they brought the charges ..?? If that timeline is correct, then Rush may be right about the plot to try to impeach Bush. The only monkey-wrench in the dems plan was the fact the prison info WAS LEAKED AHEAD OF TIME. I believe the prison stuff was the "October surprise" Hillary was crowing about earlier in the year.

At a Pentagon briefing in January (which I distinctly remember seeing), it was stated that charges had been brought concerning mistreatment of prisoners, and it was in full investigation.

I guess we'll see, won't we ..??
