Not ALL of our troops deserves our support.

1. America's shame is known

Today is not an easy day to be a "proud american"

[Jackpine Radical]

2. SUPPORT THE TROOPS

Torturing children is hard work.

3. What the hell is that accordion-looking thingy...

attached to that bloody board? Could that be some sort of belt, to hold the victim down? I wonder if the boards pictured in some of these are what have been used for the cold-water immersion torture that the asses of our administration claim is "not too bad"?

7. That post is sarcastic. Some RWers describe the torture as no

worse than a frat hazing.

11. Still proud my taxes support this.

If the US interrogators had used the Monty Python* methods of interrogation like they were supposed to, America would not be looking so horrific to the World right now.

The whole practice of torture will no longer hurt the reputation of the United States, because cameras have been banned at Abu Graib by Donald Rumsfeld himself!

9. After all this time only a handful of low level...

participants have been charged. It seems that the Bush Regime is stating that this situation has been dealt with and no more charges will be forthcoming.

12. Here's one right here, in our midst.

I see no sarcasm tags on this post, anywhere; sounds dead serious, to me.

Amazing that perhaps half of our country's citizens wouldn't object to be treated in the manner depicted in the Abu Ghraib photos, isn't it?

13. and even more...

They got sarcasm tags?

Seriously, Lyndie England, the mastermind and leader of the torture the prisoners conspiracy, is behind bars, so we can all get this behind us and move forward!

The few bad apples have been brought to justice. Just move on.
