ARRRGGH!! Right-wing idiot rant!
Innocent human beings were apparently abused, tortured, and now we find out, possibly even raped by our troops.

OUR troops. It is a horrible day in America's history. Terrible.

But what's pissed off all the right-wingers more than anything else?

The sodomization with light sticks? No.

Dragging someone around on a dog collar? Nope.

Raping Iraqi women? Not quite.

It's Ted Kennedy's OUTRAGEOUS statement that Saddam's torture chambers have reopened under new management! Oh, the horror! That terrible Ted Kennedy!

All the wingnuts here at work are up in arms over Kennedy's statement. I just don't get it. Kennedy's words are worse than the physical abuse our troops gave some potentially innocent Iraqis.

The world just keeps getting worse and worse.

7. Hehe, yeah, great timing, huh?
I don't think it matters what our side tries to say anymore. It will be exaggerated, spun, or taken out of context to suit the needs of right-wingers who want to destroy all liberals. Why not give up the mincing of words? They'll badmouth us all anyway. At least maybe we'll open some eyes.

2. Kennedy...
must have balls big enough for the beach. That's a statement I would expected to have remained here at DU or done by Jon Stewart. The guy deserves a pat on the back and a stiff drink.

3. outraged by the outrage? I'm outraged by passing the blame to the troops
when there is obvious evidence that the chain of command is not working right, they blame the GIs for what's going on? Talk about hurting morale and giving comfort to the enemy. Bush and Rummy are TRAITORS to our men in uniform.

4. Well, we're not up to the standards of the former management
But give us a chance, we just re-opened the place. We're getting some expert advice from the dregs of South Africa's apartheid regime, and hopefully there are still a few holdovers from the Shah's SAVAK who would be willing to pick up a few bucks for consulting.

Yup, we're working real hard to make the people of Iraq forget Saddam.

5. Great observation
I always chuckle that RW'ers love to say how "rational" and "unemotional" they are in their politcal thinking.

10. I don't understand.
OxyRush has said several times that the Bush rape rooms and torture chambers are much nicer than the Saddam rape rooms and torture chambers.
