Brainlessone,
I suggest the Senators quetioning the military also apologize for the prison abuses in Iraq. They are part and parcel of the government and should share responsibility.

Now, since they have singled out these abuses and are shocked by them perhaps they should all go and spend some time in the prisons here in the US or if they want in Iraq.
They should spend 8 hour or in some cases 12 hour shifts alongside of the guards and see just what's it's like in the prison system.
Abuses Ha! Some of these prisoners deserve much more than abuse. They deserve severe punishment in many cases and just sometimes it gets metered out by the guards who have to put up with their crap day in day out.
How many people have spent time with hardened criminals or worse yet terrorists in close quarters for any length of time. Very few and I can tell you by personal experience there are abuses. With this election year going on the Democrats have found a thread to nit pick about with the exception of Senator Lieberman who is perhaps the only Democrat I would ever vote for. He is a tremendous individual and cannot be lumped in with the Kennedys and Kerry's.
