Now stranger things have happened, and he might simply have gotten a rotten assignment from his company and got out as soon as he could find other work. However, that bit of information did cause me to raise my eyebrows slightly.
That is interesting.
Another interesting thing I saw this morning on the talking head shows. Lyndie England, the press described trailer park girl from the hollers of West Virginia who is the one seen mugging for the camera in a lot of the photos, has not one, or two, but three lawyers, such as could be described as her own legal dream team.
My question, who is paying for her legal team for the trailer park girl from WV?
I think that's incredibly farfetched.
Did you realize one of the civilian contractors doing the interrogations left in February and just gave an interview to the Guardian? Did you know he was a Dean supporter? Does it seem likely to you that a Dean supporter would volunteer for a job interrogating prisoners in Iraq?
What's so unlikely about it? There are many Dean supporters, and it isn't surprising that one of them turned up in Iraq.
Quite frankly, it's disturbing to see folks on this forum trying to turn this issue into a vehicle for their pet agenda. Here's what I've seen so far:
1. This is because of gays in the military
2. This is because of women in the military
3. This is because of the media
4. This is because of liberals
Simply put, this is about the actions of the people involved, period. Everything else is secondary. It blows me away to see folks accuse the Democrats of using this for political fodder, only to turn around and do the very same thing themselves.
IMHO, conservatives need to rise above this petty political nonsense. It's going to make all of us look foolish.
