Republican Senator Jim Inhofe (R-OK) said(tuesday) on CNN that the Iraqi prisoners basically deserved what they got:
"I have to say I'm probably not the only one up at this table that is more outraged by the outrage than we are by the treatment. The idea that these prisoners, you know they're not there for traffic violations. If they're in cellblock 1A or 1B these prisoners, they're murderers, they're terrorists, they're insurgents, many of them probably have American blood on their hands, and here we're so concerned about the treatment of those individuals." According to CNN, John McCain walked out the room during Inhofe's remarks and told reporters he did not agree with him. Democratic Senators reportedly sat stunned as Inhofe defended the abuses.

too bad the latest reports are that 90%(i had been assuming more than 50%) of those prisoners were innocent iraqis rounded up becuase they were of the age to join the resistance.. not because they were engaged in active resistance.
