I thought this was interesting yet I am not surprised at all that Clinton and Kennedy knew. I wonder which of those people in that list of the democrats decided to use this story for political gain.

Its not a coincidence that as soon as the 9-11 Commission was going not there way that they drop that from need to know interest and “leaked” this story about prisoner abuse.

If Donald Rumsfeld resigns then those congressmen that knew about this should also have to resign in my opinion. I would love to hear Donald say the next time he is asked by the media “are you going to resign” I would love him to say “I will resign after Senators Jack Reed, Mark Dayton, Robert Byrd, Bill Nelson, Evan Bayh, Mark Pryor, Edward Kennedy, Benjamin Nelson, Hillary Clinton, Joseph Lieberman, Daniel Akaka, Paul Sarbanes, John D. Rockefeller, Governor Mark Warner and Rep. Roscoe Bartlett. Who knew about this yet did nothing including not contact me about this.” That would be a hoot, although we all know they would never play that on the news if he said that. What do you think about this story?

The timing of the release of the pictures was perfect for a propaganda machine - just after the commission (9/11) was fading from public interest and as the supreme court is looking into several cases regarding prisoner access to criminal court proceedings.

All of them.

What did they know and when did they know it?

They could only have been feigning outrage, since they have been long aware of what was going on at Abu Ghraib; the e-mail letters fully alerted the 16 Democrats and Governor Warner of the prisoner abuse accusations.

These politicians are sickening in their hypocrisy.

Why, this can't be. Liberals are authentic. They would never feign outrage; they would never stand on corpses and proclaim their moral outrage in hopes of getting elected.

After all, when liberals use the word "atrocity," you can be sure they're refering to a subhuman murderer with panties on his head. The American who has his head slowly hacked off escapes these moral and intellectual swine.

You can add Sen. Leahy to that list.

He was asking CYA questions to Rummy today about a letter he supposedly sent to Rummy's office in Feburary or there abouts.

Leahy claims he never got an answer to the elusive so-called letter.

Sent it to Rush, Drudge and Fox news

I'm sure ALL of them are using this for political gain. That's what RATS do.

Welcome to Free Republic. Great post for a beginner. I can't do that good and I've been here for 4 years. LOL

I missed seeing the yesterday and this morning. It is interesting and I'm glad that the family is talking to someone besides CBS and Hackworth. The fact that the family is loosing trust in Hackworth is in itself good news. He was using them by stating that he would release the name but only sought interviews touting himself of course.
