This may very well make some of us rethink our stance on what exactly is acceptable in such an environment. If the truth is the truth, we should discuss it as Americans. This is how you avoid being blindsided.

Transperancy is the best policy, gentlemen (and ladies).

We've already discussed it, ad nauseum. They who did wrong are being prosecuted. What is new here??

The soldiers responsible for the abuses at Abu Ghraib were charged for their crimes under articles of the UCMJ. This was clearly criminal activity. What exactly needs to be re-thought as to its acceptability?

Also, do you think that videos taken of the Abu Ghraib abuses would help the public understand anything else about them? In my opinion, these videos would just be picked up by the media and shown every half-hour. How would that help our cause in Iraq?

Yep. And it's time the Democratic party own up to the immoral people they have foisted on an otherwise civil society.
