Defense Lawyer: cheerleaders all over America form (torture) pyramids

FORT HOOD, Texas (Reuters) - A lawyer for Charles Graner, accused ringleader in the Iraq prisoner abuse scandal, on Monday compared piling naked prisoners into pyramids to cheerleader shows and said leashing inmates was also acceptable prisoner control. (YEEHAA!!)

2. Bush was a cheerleader at Yale

He should be called as a witness to talk about how common such torture pyramids were.

6. That was a good one!

It was on the t.v. too. (cbs I think) and at the time I thought, "How can they consistently not get it?" You'd think by the sheer law of averages they'd say something right one in awhile.

8. This is one of those times

when I'm not really proud of some members of my cherished and honorable profession.

By the way, the new issue of Vanity Fair - with all the Star Wars actors and George Lucas on the foldout cover - has a deeply disturbing and detailed article about Abu Ghraib and what happened there. Try to get your hands on a copy.
