Englund's attorney: "photos like spring break"
I just heard this on CNN and nearly spit out my coffee. Lynndie Englund's attorney said she was "distraught about the fuss over photos that are like those taken at Mardi Gras or on Spring Break".
Yeah, it's a tradition to go on down to New Orlean's and listen to jazz, capture some helpless victims and put plastic bags over their heads, rape and torture them. :shrug:

10. Well, fwiw, he's the one arguing that this isn't an isolated incident...
...and that the responsibility goes to the top. Pretty unsavory stuff, but he may be one hope for bringing the real criminals (Rummy and Dubya) to trial.

6. Gotta remember this, folks: "Military justice" is an oxymoron. . .
and as Groucho Marx once said: "Military justice is to justice what military music is to music"

I can't even believe the lame arguments that some people try to put forward in court. I thought she was going to use the defense that she was ordered to take the pictures.

...Spring Break. I remember it as if it were only yesterday.

Naked dog piles with me and my buddies.

Being bound, hooded and forced to stand naked while some semi-ugly skank pointed at my flaccid penis while taking photos.

Rectal probes. Dog collars. Just good clean all American hi jinx.

Thank you sir, may I have another.

I'm here to tell you, our year book was the talk of the campus.

13. I'd be happy to...
...given the proper forum.

It was long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away.

14. She is pregnant.
What kind of life will that baby have a convict for a mother and god knows a pervert for a father. What we do to our children is shameful.

15. Ok lets not do a republican thing
He said that about the photos she took of herself and her charming boyfriend together not the photos where she was torturing prisoners.

Let's be fair here. At least as long as there are tons of other things to hang her for and there sure are.

16. There was a time when thumbs-up didn't mean
"Check out these naked, bound prisoners in a heap!" I feel like I can never use that gesture again.

17. She won't do any time
no matter what happens. Don't get too excited, or worried about her child growing up without a mother. There will be a plea, and she will end up with time served.
