That is not so far-fetched.

I think that's incredibly farfetched.

Did you realize one of the civilian contractors doing the interrogations left in February and just gave an interview to the Guardian? Did you know he was a Dean supporter? Does it seem likely to you that a Dean supporter would volunteer for a job interrogating prisoners in Iraq?

What's so unlikely about it? There are many Dean supporters, and it isn't surprising that one of them turned up in Iraq.

Quite frankly, it's disturbing to see folks on this forum trying to turn this issue into a vehicle for their pet agenda. Here's what I've seen so far:

1. This is because of gays in the military
2. This is because of women in the military
3. This is because of the media
4. This is because of liberals

Simply put, this is about the actions of the people involved, period. Everything else is secondary. It blows me away to see folks accuse the Democrats of using this for political fodder, only to turn around and do the very same thing themselves.

IMHO, conservatives need to rise above this petty political nonsense. It's going to make all of us look foolish.

Huh, I guess you missed demo Senators kennedy, byrd, dayton, levin, clinton, being all so objective towards Rumsfeld last Friday.

BTW, I have a bridge for sale that goes to Brooklyn.

We live in a political world and the demos are going perpetuate that for years to come.

JMO, the people who look foolish are the ones who keep wishing for political utopia.

It looks to me that Torin is "a man with a mission". The following appears to be one of Torin's more recent missions.
