1. Of course they're absolving him!

You weren't expecting anything else from the men and women who "represent" us in Congress were you?

2. But not before California Rep. Duke Cunningham

took a good hard vicious kick at the Black Caucus when he started his comments to Rumsfeld, going out of his way to try to pin many of the problems around this mess as being caused by the "Black Caucus," and acting as if he was simply scandalized by their un-American spirit, presumeably because they believe Rumsfeld should be held accountable.

So Rummy fell back into the waiting arms of his "good ol' boys," and they walked off into the sunset.

This is simply loathesome.

4. Particularly offensive that Cunningham and Rumsfeld stood together AFTER

before a mike, with Rummy's hand on his back.

there is nothing going on that every one does not know about.
we ship people to other countries for interrogation. look at the pictures of blown up people. whether it's from an errant bomb or an eager sniper, people are still dead in this OPTIONAL war. and many are dead because of shrub et al's poor plan. fire them Nov. 2. show the world that we the people can do preventative maintenance on our system.

on edit: taking a bulldozer to that prison might be a good symbol.
just make sure the rebuilding contracts go to them that live there

8. Bulldoze it after filling it

with this entire administration chained to the wall with urine soaked bags on their heads. Let the Iraqis drive the 'dozers.
I call it Karma.

9. this country has to show that we can tell good from bad

as the current superpower, we need to show this so that some on this planet can relax , a little, and spend time and resources working on problems that are just over the horizon. i think to do this we have to curb our politicians and, maybe harder, our corporations.

13. Thank you for coming here today Mr. Secretary.

This must be especially hard for you, so I'll be as brief as I can. Yes, you have been doing a good job. I must ask you when did you first learn of these incidents. Of course we all know the good job your doing with the two wars that you're going through, and you do have a tremendous job and again we're all behind you and the president.
