Abu Ghraib, U.S.A.
 
Abu Ghraib, U.S.A.


Senator Joe Lieberman, who lost the Connecticut Democratic primary to Ned Lamont but is running for re-election as an Independent, was the beneficiary of a September 20 fund raising dinner in Florida organized by shopping mall magnate Mel Sembler, the former chief fund raiser for the Republican National Committee.

Sembler is also the head of the Lewis “Scooter” Libby Legal Defense Trust, organized to raise money to pay the legal bills on behalf of Dick Cheney's former chief of staff. Libby is accused of playing a pivotal role in the Bush regime's outing of CIA operative Valerie Plame as a retaliatory strike against Plame's husband, Ambassador Joe Wilson. More significantly, Libby is believed to have played a similarly critical role in helping to devise the regime's policies regarding the detention and torture of terrorist suspects.

Lieberman has earned the gratitude and support of the regime and its mouthpieces (Sean Hannity being both the stupidest and most repulsive example) for the unqualified support he has offered Bush regarding the Iraq war and efforts to transform the presidency into a fully realized dictatorship.

Some doctrinaire neo-Trots, such as Bill Kristol's gang at the Weekly Standard, have suggested that Lieberman would make a suitable replacement for Donald Rumsfeld, should the incumbent Secretary of Aggression and Occupation be persuaded to step down. Others have gone so far as to suggest that Al Gore's 2000 running mate would make a good addition to the Republican Party's 2008 presidential ticket.

Lieberman may be among the most liberal members of the Senate regarding social and economic matters, but he is rock-solid on the two issues that dominate Bush-era Republican conservatism: Foreign war and domestic tyranny; he's unabashedly in favor of both. (continued on the blogsite)

Do you have something to add, or are you just looking for the thrill of posting on the forum?

What does this have to do with Abu Ghraib? Where are the dog collars and the naked pyramids?

Also,

Valerie Plame was not outed.
She was not a CIA operative.
Libby will be aquited.
Rumsfeld is not aggressive enough.
If Libby was in charge of detaining and torturing terrorists, he needs to get back to work.
Sean Hannity is not stupid nor repulsive, just more successful than the blogger.

You know what's happened, right? We have gotten ourselves into a lose/lose situation. There are no good answers, so everyone attacks everyone else's answer, and does so convincingly.

Because all the solutions suck. They all suck badly.

Staying sucks. Leaving sucks. Putting more troops on the ground sucks. Putting fewer troops on the ground sucks. Maintaining current troop levels sucks.

Every available option we have sucks. Liberman's preferred course of action sucks, and so does Murtha's. So we attack each other viciously, screaming "Your solution sucks!"

We are all correct.

And we are tearing ourselves to pieces.

Meanwhile, Haliburton, the Bush family, and Richard Perle get richer.

Richard Perle Supports Terrorism.

It makes no difference whatsoever what his religion may be, he should be arrested and tried for espionage and terrorism.

Evidently the CHANGE we all need simply means changing the name of a place LOL

Associated Press

BAGHDAD — Iraq will reopen the notorious Abu Ghraib prison next month, but it's getting a facelift and a new name, a senior justice official said Saturday.

The announcement comes as the U.S. military has begun handing over detainees in its custody to the Iraqis under a new security agreement.

The renovated facility will be called Baghdad's Central Prison because the name Abu Ghraib has left a "bitter feeling inside Iraqis' hearts," deputy Justice Minister Busho Ibrahim said.

Abu Ghraib, which was a torture center under Saddam Hussein and later came to symbolize American mistreatment of some prisoners captured in Iraq, has been closed since 2006.

The prison will house 3,500 inmates when it reopens in mid-February and will have a capacity for about 15,000 by the end of this year, Ibrahim told The Associated Press in a telephone interview.
