Mr. Rumsfeld's Responsibility

I wonder, is the editor of The Washington Post anti-American or what? How can he dare write something negative about the US goverment or its officials?

Don, Don, Don... so the Geneva Conventions do not apply, huh? How about kicking your butt all the way to a cell in Gantánamo, locking you up and throwing the key into the ocean? All we'd have to do is declare you an "enemy combatant" (was that the name?) and you'd be shut from any contact to your family, your attorneys, or the press for ever and ever Amen.

Does that sound like a fair thing to do?

Tell that to the presumably innocent (until proven otherwise) hundreds of prisoners in Gantánamo, Abu Gharib, and who knows where else.
