The "Reprimanded" Grunts, Too

Just as I mentioned just now that Bush and Company will take another victory walk around the mess created by the Iraqi prison scandal, I'm sure there will be no serious investigation of whether these soldiers now charged with torture and cruelty actually got pressure to do this from higher up.

Oh, the people in charge will justify it well to themselves. They'll say, "a few people from West Virginia or the whole Arab-Islamic world hates us." But the Arabs and Muslims won't forgive this easily, and this crew (Bush and Company) simply want to escape any hint of connection with what they did.

And we'll let them get away with it.
