6. It's about Guantanamo.
Edited on Mon May-17-04 09:44 PM by yibbehobba
And it's from late 2002, I believe.

Edit: In fact, I think *all* of these quotes are from that general timeframe, and relevant to Guantanamo, not the Abu Grahib scandal. Anyone who finds differently feel free to chime in. I've only been able to find the cheney & rummy quotes.

Vice President Dick Cheney said Friday that the detainees are "really bad people" who don't qualify as prisoners of war under the Geneva Conventions. He assured a Cincinnati audience of about 2,000 GOP supporters that the prisoners are receiving good food and medical care.

"Nobody should feel defensive or unhappy about the quality of treatment they've received," he said. "It's probably better than they deserve."

10. Idea for a cartoon
I'm replying to this because I don't have enough posts to start a thread yet.

Anyway, I'm no artist but I do have a great idea for a cartoon. Perhaps one of the more artistically minded here can run with it.

I'd like to see a pot (as in the kind you cook things in) with two arms, looking like it's reading a piece of paper with 'State Department Report on Human Rights Abuses'. Watching the pot read this report are three black tea kettles--one labelled 'Abu Ghraib', one labelled 'Guantanamo', and one labelled 'Jose Padilla'.

Comments welcome.
