Re: Report: Sanchez Authorized Iraqi Prisoner Abus (none / 0) (#38)

The conservative kneejerk reaction is to ignore or minimize this. There is a visceral understanding that if Sanchez was involved, then this was a systematic problem rather than a case of a "few bad apples". If the problem is systematic than those in power have some responsibility for what happened and that means there will be political consequences for the Republicans. Maybe that is why there has been so much silence on this issue by our rightwing friends. Of course a true patriot would not remain silent when it comes to this violation of what our country stands for. He would not chose party or politics over country. A true patriot would not remain silent while evil is being committed.
