MSNBC's video accompanying Kerry Sander's report on the rescue and the two hospitals that she was kept at(they were given a tour of the facilities) showed a jail type of locking cage door on one of the hallways. Rather strange to have in just a simple 'hospital'.

The report I am speaking of had this "reporter" I had never seen before saying he was in the foyer of the hospital. Camera pans. In the purported foyer are a few gurneys, some with "patients" on them. A couple had women standing by with the traditional black garb. The "reporter" pointed out the "usual" mural of Saddam on the wall, then went on to describe how everything seemed normal to him. I wish someone else had seen this report. I know it was Fox and I believe it was David Asman in studio who received the "report" without comment at the end. They simply moved on to the next story.

I must have missed it because I have been in and out of the house this morning. It that happened we need to email Fox News about using such a despicable source. I do know that David Asman has a son in the marines who is in Iraq. I don't think he would have appreciated that reporter.

I think this is David Choldt (sp?), a Sky News reporter. He acts like a BBC reporter.

I just saw a report on FOx about the Brits finding a torture chamber in a police station in the South....they found meat hooks mounted on walls and electricity running to a metal bed. They found dozens of ID's in the police chiefs desk....people they had tortured and killed..
