When several U.S. soldiers were captured and interrogated on television last year, the outcry among the squawking heads was loud and strident. Rummy himself, claiming the high ground, seemed to remember something about the Geneva Convention at the time:
“The Geneva Convention indicates that it’s not permitted to photograph and embarrass or humiliate prisoners of war.”
Where is the reactionary outrage today, with Rummy squirming around trying to avoid all responsibility for this horror and Rush-from-pills Limbaugh calling it 'blowing-off-steam?" Why have they all conveniently forgotten the Geneva Convention?

at this point i think the whole administration should be thrown out, and my view is more emotional than political. Can u imagine if the same treatement was given to American soldiers? I think we would have a very strong reaction. I dont think justice will be justice enough
