CNN's certainly starting up on Sanchez today.

Three segments this morning about General Sanchez. They're taking care to emphasize that he was in charge of Abu Ghraib's prisoners when the abuse there was exposed.

Swiftboating in the making?

1. Col. Jack Jacobs on MSNBC just said he should have said something

while on duty and maybe he could have 'effected change'. IMO, he would have been riding the boot-in-ass express, like so many of his peers did.

2. That's okay.

They just keep making it harder for Georgie to ever attempt a military coup. Although, if he did, the current slate of Republicans would probably gather for a reenactment of Julius Caesar.

3. Did you expect anything less.. I'm sure the Whitehous memo this

AM said pull out all you can on this guy. Truth tellers get smashed in this regime...And does anyone really think that Abu Ghraib wasn't a top down memo.. the same type of shit happens throughout the prison system... And who's in charge of Gitmo?

4. Sanchez is no hero--he WAS accountable for what occurred in Iraq

under his watch. But his current statements are verrrrry enlightening.

5. That's the problem ...

Now that he's saying something verrrrry interesting, the media is all too pleased to emphasize his past failures over his current actions.

6. The Freep-types are already making him out to be a Clinton-promoted

political hack who is bitter because Petraeus is supposedly doing a better job. They'll pull out all the stops to discredit him, I'm sure.
