    "Just another attempt to tarnish our troops in Iraq..."

    ...by exposing what some of them are doing? So, it's Salon's fault that our sons and daughters are torturing prisoners in Iraq?

    I'd like to think the horror of what we are now is just too much for some people to handle which, in turn, causes these people to jump through hoops of logic that's as tortured as the human beings in these photos, but I know that's being overly charitable.
