And there will be a backlash

FrankC — 5/6/2004 3:49:35 AM (archived)

The people that committed the abuse deserve whatever punishment they get but the media harping on this issue is already getting old.

Spreading the blame to the entire military and hell, why not the entire country, doesn't cut it. Red America will soon get tired of hearing it. Images of our own being dragged through the streets are still fresh.

Hair shirts are not popular with most Americans and they don't look good on anyone.
