358. Those Photo's must be pretty devastating.
This must be why Cheney is taunting the Administration to release the torture memos showing how successful they were, because Cheney knows that Obama can't without igniting a firestorm under the troops and undermine the current Chicken-Hawk builup for the next war in Pakistan.

Personally, we've already seen some pretty devastating photos out of Abu Ghraib, but the media had control over the populace at that time, and was able to buy several years of cover for Bush and his fiends. At this period, America is righfully outraged, and is demanding blood from Bush and Crew. But Obama continues to protect them, showing that he really has no say in the matter.

Just imagine the millions of people employed in Government that stay from one administration to the next, and you'll see why we have no change. It's a sham. It's the illusion of change. It's an illusion of Majority rule, because 51% of the people can dictate was 49% of the people have to do. That's not freedom.
