GEORGE W. BUSH, U.S. PRESIDENT: "Those responsible for these abuses have caused harm that goes well beyond the walls of the prison. It has given some an excuse to question our cause and to cast doubt on our motives."

Over and over and over we see how it all started with Bush authorizing torture, Rumsfeld authorizing torture, Wolfowitz advocating torture, and these folks are prosecuting a few enlisted personnel.

Used to be conservatives touted accountability.
