Rumsfeld: Prisoner Abuse 'Un-American'
Oh please - ask all the minorities, the poor and all the others who lack expensive lawyers to keep them out of jail how they feel about abuse and fairness.
Here we go again with the arrogance. Assuming Rummie means what he says, then being american means starting wars, interfering with others, establishing murderous thugs as rulers, selling weapons, disrepecting our elders and placing money above all else.
Well thanks rummy now i understand

2. H2O Man: Rumsfeld is unAmerican.
Prisons, jails,youth facilities, and psychiatric "centers" in the USA have their share of tortures and violence. Usually, the person in charge sets the tone. People like Rumsfeld sets a vicious tone.
