Might as well put this one out to pasture, too.

Considering this issue was known to the public, including everyone in Washington who was paying attention, as far back as March (it was a major story in the Washington Post then*), can you explain where the indignation has been hiding out from all the rest of Washington? Where was the outrage from them? Or the media?

Or was it only when the photos were released that Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, and all the rest suddenly found these acts reprehensible?

*Note the title of the article. Could it be that the reason that there was no outrage back in March was because the situation was already being corrected? It is relevant, but rarely mentioned, that the abuse and other activities was largely stopped months ago.
