Drudge now reporting that (gasp!) men were made to wear women's maxi-pads. Will the horrors never end! /sarcasm

BTW, was it really necessary to preface maxi-pads with "women's"?

Drudge is reaching this time. Who really cares? Does he know that WMD were found? Does he or anyone else care?

I think this is the more relevant part but leave it to Drudge to highlight sensational things:

Guards forced detainees to crawl on their hands and knees on broken glass ... Guards also applied needle and thread to prisoners after beating them.... 'Would personally stitch up detainees if the wound weren't too bad' and take pictures of the work. One particular incident, a guard ran a former Iraqi general into a wall and split his lip. The guard than stitched up his lip'...

They'd better be careful. The "wings" could allow the detainees to soar over the wall to freedom.

Kind of reminds me of a story from when I lived in Spokane. There was an attorney by the name of Carl Maxey, and he had sort of a reputation for fighting for the poor downtrodden. So anyway, he was going to build this housing development where the homeless could get free homes. What would he call them??? (Waaaait for it!!!!)

Stay Free Maxey Pads! Of course!

Sorry, off topic, I know! I don't mean to make light of the terrible suffering of those poor prisoners, forced to wear Maxi pads! I'm sure MA's own fighter for the little guy, Teddy the K, will have something to say about that!

I don't question your bona fides, but as to your quotes, I want proof.

BALONEY! There are NO prisoners of that rank in that prison. Those are being held at the airport facility.
