I am SO disgusted by Sen. James Inhofe!!
Just saw him on Hardball - what a major dickhead!! When asked if it was acceptable for the prisoners to be stripped naked, he said he saw nothing wrong with that. When Matthews pressed him on the other abuses - unleashing dogs on them, etc. - Inhofe just waffled and said he wasn't going to respond to each issue. He is the same one who said (paraphrasing) - "look, these people weren't picked up on traffic violations...."

Arrghhhh!!!!!

Earlier I saw footage of testimony where Gen. Myers rationalized that the military's rules of engagement are "appropriate and within the law" - even though they are beyond the Geneva Convention!!

This makes me so mad and disgusted!

1. On the Other Hand-
If Inhofe is becoming the "goto" guy for Republicans, he can only help convince the undecideds that the Republicans are a bunch of extremist kooks. I hope we see Inhofe get more visability in the coming days.....

3. He will cost Bush independent votes in November, like Limbaugh
If the child rape videos are released, he'll probably defend those as well.

5. Imagine how I feel being an Okie...
I've known this sonofabitch since he was mayor of Tulsa. He was hiding big bucks in the Caymans 30 years ago before it got to be popular with repuke thieving bastards.

He doesn't give a shit what anybody thinks if they have any disagreement with his hideous bogus-xian bullshit. I've sent him hundreds of letters over the years. Standard reply is a form letter.

He's lucky I'm a non-violent well-armed Okie.

6. Seems like there's a Rove fax going around
and Inhofe is its main mouthpiece. I think Allard (Colorado?) echoed the same sentiments, and Rush was saying it even earlier. They want to make light of these crimes, dismiss them, and dismiss the outrage over them.
