Wake up, smell the coffee, Bush supporter or not. If you think for 2 seconds if Clinton, or Regan, or any other president was in office, and these stories would not be reported with Bush's name replaced as (insert ex-presidents name here) then your just another babbling republican fool. All of them would be crucified by the media, just like Bush is.
Yes, I'm republican, but how about for once seeing the face value of what's going on here -- torture, inhumane acts from American people. Exactly what we DON'T stand for. The only thing you can come up with is it's "Anti-Bush". Come on people. It doesn't matter who's there, what time, what place, it's war, and Bush is in office, he's going to take the heat.
You know, not everything in politics is about conspiracy theories. Some of it is factual and justified. IMO, even though I'm Republican, I think it's completely justified the Bush administration takes a well deserved ass-ramming for this one.
I can see considering some media reports "over the top" but seriously, what else would you expect to happen?

You seem to think that this type of crap is something new, something that's easily controlled. It's not. People get out of hand in these situations and no one can baby sit them 24/7 to make sure they're treating prisoners correctly. I don't give a shit if it's Clinton, Kerry, or you in the White House, the calls for Rumsfeld's ouster are motivated purely by politics just as they would be if it was Clinton's people. There's been no evidence yet that Rumsfeld handled the accusations improperly, no proof he allowed them to continue, no proof of a cover up, etc, etc, etc and everyone is jumping the gun and calling for his head. Ask yourself who has been calling for him to resign? If you don't think it has to do with the election then there's nothing more we need to talk about.
