I feel that MM's condemnation of AG was responsive to the need. After all, by the time that it surfaced in the MSM months later, the second Army investigation was underway and it was apparent to many that the idiots/subpar soldiers were well on their way to being punished. BTW they were MP's not Intelligence officers. Torture? No. Humilitation? yes. But on the level of bad fraternity hazing. Think about Nick Berg having his head sawed off slowly for some perspective. If you will read the Army report (miller I think was the guy) you will find that there was very serious incompetence at the prison - over crowding, putting political prisoners with criminals, not doing roll calls, perimeter violations, bad staffing, and lack of discipline which should be laid at the feet of the commanding officer at the prison. The MSM overlooked that as the CO was a woman. It was evenutally cleaned up, but not becasue of the MSM coverage. Please give the reference for the stats about Western Europe and Japan being majority non-believers - church attendance is low but that does not mean that they are atheists. But they both have 1.2 - 1.4 population reproduction rates (in homogeneous Japan which does not allow immigration, the population is actually declining) which I think may reflect their attitude on how good their lives are. BTW London, where I live, has had a soaring crime rate for the past 10 years and is more dangerous than NYC. France has at least 750 no go areas where the police will not enter. Sorry for brief answer but have to work.... Dear Mike B,

If you will read the Army report (miller I think was the guy) you will find that there was very serious incompetence at the prison – over crowding, putting political prisoners with criminals, not doing roll calls, perimeter violations, bad staffing, and lack of discipline which should be laid at the feet of the commanding officer at the prison.

If you want the best coverage, go to The News Hour on PBS. It is not biased, in depth, and celebrity driven. I don't know if MM can handle it. Moving on...I see no one out there is going to disagree that Elizabeth H and Sean Hannity are both dumb as posts. Good, we're making progress.

They and their peers are the ones most endangered by the reckless soldiers and contractors, negligent commanders, exploitative media, and grandstanding politicans who are responsible for creating and deepening the Abu Ghraib morass.” “For the sake of all good Americans, President Bush, punish the wrongdoers, reward the right-doers, and get the knuckleheads at home and abroad to knock it off.” She's not exactly up in arms about it. And what those "bad guys" (and it was also women, MM) did was more than being "knuckleheads" as their court marshal sentences demonstrate. But, thanks MM for reminding us that not all troops are bad. Is that why we have to have Italian cops when we make Mafia movies to show that not all Italians are criminals? (Spoiler alert, don't read further because I don't want to be accused of "hijacking this string) MM condemns Michael Moore (another MM) much more than she does criminal troops when he points to the reality that other countries (using all statistical measures) have better per capita health care than the US, that gun violence in the US is a big problem, etc. MM just hates inconvenient truths. (Let's take a few examples: Mass. with gay marriage has the lowest divorce rate in the US (what happened to the threat to marriage); If religion makes people moral, why is it that Western Europe and Japan (the majority of whose populations are nonbelievers) have much lower crime rates, divorce rates, delinquency rates than we do; I could go on)). Okay, boys, if you're still on this string fire away... I don’t know how long these strings last, but okay:
