    "All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing"

    I am sickened by this article. First by this man's actions, and secondly by the attempt to elicit sympathy for him and his actions. Oh look, a picture if a torturer on Santa's knee! Isn't that sweet?!!

    He and his cohorts are a disgrace to the American people. All of his superior officers are also complicit in this horrendous situation.

    And the rest of the world thanks every one of you who voted for Obama. May we all see positive change and a return of the USA to a place of honor in this world.
