I'm sure all the networks will be showing this.

[fml]

Showtime - he's being sworn in. Go gettem!!

[Barlowmaker]

This treatment is not aberrant but methodical and intentional.

... conducted by .... gasp ... private contractors!

[MinuteGal]

The Dems smell blood and are pouring it on....to hell with the honor of our country and troops.

Now Levin wants us to apologize to the prisoners!

Leni

[Howlin]

I hope they have a timeline with NAMES of people they talked to.

[Peach]

You know, someday I'm going to stroke out right here in the study listening to the Rats. Maybe that's their intent - kill all the conservatives.

[tapatio]

Rush was right!Yesterday's apology wasn't enough!

[maeng]

OR maybe you just refuse to understand!!!!

[george wythe]

all network channels are covering

If Rumsfeld performs well, he might pull an "Ollie North" and carry the day.

[mombonn]

Rummy up - half-glasses sickens me especially since he's my sinator.

[Yaelle]

Go Rummie!

[Sacajaweau]

I can read Rummy's eyes. "You dumb bastards. You're giving the bad guys the air time they want. War stinks. Sh** happens and we take care of it."

[linn37]

Rumsfield is biting the bullet and taking the heat.

[RetiredArmy]

Also need prompt and decisive action.

This bastard ever heard of the right to due process via the United States Constitution. Oh, right, sorry that is only for whales, owls, fish and snails. Not US troops or unborn children.

[Christian4Bush]

Maybe Byrd wil stroke out while he's talking..that would spice things up..
How would we know?

Because he would sink "deeper...and deeper....AND DEEPER!!!

"Save me Cassius, 'ere I sink!"

Save me, Senate, ere I puke!

[Peach]

Yup.

[ThomasMore]

Senator Warner: This is as serious an issue of misconduct as I have ever observed.

Hyped up BS. He obviously didn't study WWII. The Pubbies better stop their suckin up mode. It aint gonna help.

[JFC]

who is the guy behind rummy who keeps rolling his eyes...

[epluribus_2]

looks like the new "Rino and Rodent - 2004" exhibit now open at the Washington Zoological Park.

[cyncooper]

Rumsfeld takes responsibility for insuring conduct is appropriate.

Feels terrible about the treatment of these detainees. We did mistreat them. He offers deepest apology.

Inconsistant with conduct of military. Feels terrible about how it reflects on the honorable members of our military.

[carton253]

Yeah...that's right... it's all my fault. </sarcasm>
