Who's to Blame?

Women, of course.

Forcing the poor military to take women is the root of the problem in Iraq say great minds like Ann Coulter and to a lesser degree, Linda Chavez, and the regular whacko conservabots they send out when they don't want to make it appear that men are saying women are at fault.

One of the stories goes is that the woman most famously pictured in the Iraqi abuse pictures is a young woman who's pregnant by one of the GIs in the photo. Saith the neo-right, this is clear evidence that female hormones have made a mockery of This Man's Army and ruined it for the guys.

I dunno. I've traditionally worked mostly in male-centric industries and, to my knowledge, my hormones have not driven the men involved to torture.
