"Man of the Year" Promises Investigation
US pledges new jail abuse inquiry in reaction to the latest bad publicity.
Interestingly, the FBI reports themselves did not trigger an investigation. Only after the reports became public did the Bush Administration begin investigating.
This is becoming the Monty Python Administration, First, we have the "Mr. Creosote" exploding economy - and now we have the "we will not mistreat the prisoners in any way whatsoever (if there's anybody watching)" of their famous "Bruces" sketch. (See Rule 2)
Big difference - they were joking - Bush apparently really believes that it isn't a war crime unless the press actually decides to report it.
