    Thank you Salon

    Thank you for being brave enough to publish this photos. I am a suburban mom caught up in the everyday life of just raising my family. As a faithful subscriber, I was suprised to hear about Salon on NPR. After hearing why there was a news story about my favorite website, I felt proud to have my money supporting Salon.

    The unchristian and abhorrent crimes against humanity at Abu Ghraib need to be denounced, loudly, by the American people.

    As a mother, I shudder thinking of the mothers whose children were tortured in Abu Ghraib. As an American, I am angry at my government sanctioning this horror. Action against our leaders must take place. From the president down, justice needs to prevail.

    I will contine to be a premium subscriber. Thank you Salon.
