Ohhh The Terrible Abuse...

Once again that ultra liberal rag, the Washington Post, has another article above the fold claiming further detainee abuse at the prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. It’s the ACLU making this claim yet again. It sure seems to me that they would like to see these prisoners be in the same facility as Martha Stewart. C’mon, these prisoners were captured on the battlefield in Afghanistan. I also don’t like the term “detainee” being used to describe them. They are POWs. Doesn’t the ACLU have better things to do than this? They are “outraged” by the “abuse” in Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay. What happened at Abu Ghraib was nothing more than a sophomoric fraternity stunt. The prisoners there still have both their eyes and all their fingers. Very uncommon for prisoners in that part of the world. The guys at Guantanamo Bay at lost a little sleep and this is torture? Why not ask them if they would rather be in American custody or Iraqi custody? Think they would be getting kid glove treatment in Baghdad under Iraqi control? The “detainees” should be living in the same conditions that are the toughest that American soldiers and marines have to deal with in Iraq. The terrorists have to laughing at how weak we are when we are more concerned about our prisoners than are warriors. Time for me to cancel my Washington Post delivery…
