Latest Repub spin: "Those A-rabs didn't say nothin 'bout our losses. . .

. . . why should we care about Abu Ghraib?"

The Mid-East has condemned atrocities against Americans, this is more Republican boolsheet. (Scroll down to "Condemnations of Prisoner Abuse, Berg Murder in Middle East")

This RNC spin point was repeated again in a guest columnn by Billy Fite in today's Amarillo Globe News.

Let me help break this down further for our Republican friends;

Our ... troops ... work ... for ... us.
Their ... acts ... are ... our ... acts.
We ... are ... res - pon - si - ble ... for ... what ... they ... do.
We ... get ... to ... vote ... on ... their ... boss.

But ...

Arab ... thugs ... do ... not ... work ... for us.
Their ... acts ... are ... not ... our ... acts.
We ... are ... not ... res - pon - si - ble ... for ... what ... they ... do.
We ... do ... not ... get ... to ... vote ... on ... their ... bosses.

Another thought. . . why does Jessica Lynch hate America?

can't say it enough. Private Lynch is one of my favorite people.
