I wonder when she was charged.

Mistreating? She's teaching him to roll over. What's the harm in that? Better than hanging, mutilated and charred from the Brooklyn Bridge.
It's the art, stupid!

I think that it is time to declare WAR and then we can bag these treasonous reporters, news media and especially the politician lawyers!

I guess this means the Wal-Mart in her hometown will be removing her employee-of-the-month photo from their walls.

Incredible. How could these people let themselves get involved in this? It is almost like a collective temporary insanity came over them and they participated in something they would never think about doing.

According to reports, their command structure deteriorated from the head down. Discipline was lax and training was not reinforced.

Yes, I was more upset about this earlier, but the more time I've had to think about it, the less upset I am. I agree, she shouldn't have done it - and the people she was with (who took her picture and probably egged her on) shouldn't have done it, either.
But putting it into perspective, being taught to roll over is probably a whole heck of a lot better than anything any Iraqi has ever done to us. (BTW, I think you're the first person I've seen who saw that as teaching him to "roll over" - which I think was actually what was going on, probably to subdue and get information out of a really nasty person.)

I don't think she "did it". I think that is in fact the photos are legit, that someone handed that off to her. There is no way that little squirt is going to get a mad arab to lie down on the floor. Something isn't right, here.
To: hole_n_one
Her mother is already trying to portray her as a "victim", because "She's a GOOD girl."
She probably has a brilliant future-once she gets her BCD degree from the Army. She can star in S&M flicks (you know,the kind Liberals watch.)

What are they going to give her, 20 years for pointing at some men in jail?
Unless she actually engaged in any kind torture or killing I don't see her doing much time. She's definitely got a dishonorable discharge coming.

Rummy was warning us today that, in essence, it's going to get worse before it gets better.
And if I were Rummy, I'd be half-way through a giant glass of scotch by now after today's ordeal. Hell, I'd probably be half-way through the bottle.

When is her division officer going to be charged? How about the C.O.? Looks to me like supervision in that place was about non-existent.
The military should also be doing a parallel investigation on her political affiliations. This definitely looks like a setup where these pictures were taken and "accidentally" released. Is a payoff of a few million dollars to a couple of soldiers worth a dishonorable discharge to them? I'll bet it is. If it sinks the Bush presidency, it would be the best money the DNC ever spent.
To: snopercod
Hey, you should make a vanity post with that as the title and put it in Breaking News :o)
To: Mr. K
Is there a web site where ALL the pictures are posted?
