#1 Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry called Wednesday for Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to resign and urged President Bush to appoint an independent investigation to provide reforms after a report faulted all levels of the military for abuse at Abu Ghraib prison.

#2 God! Are they ever going to stop soddomizing that poor dead horse? Get over it already!

Perhaps as soon as Kerry turns himself in for war crimes......

#3 I call on the traitor Kerry to do the honorable thing: seppuku.

#4 I must be just about the only person on Earth that admires Donald Rumsfeld.

I also must be about the only person on Earth that believes the humiliation (not any actual physical torture) at Abu Ghraib is a lot of hype over nothing.

Go, Rummy.

#5 Cripes, he's serious. I thought this post was some sort of joke.

God have mercy on us if we prove stupid enough to elect this jackass as President; it'll be one helluva wild four years if we do.

#6 Who had one week in the pool 'How long until they mention Abu Grabass again?' No mention of the three people so far that have admitted to doing these acts on their own. They only ones that cling to the "higher orders" story are the ones that are facing the biggest jail time. Why doesn't Kerry tell his 'aligned’ 527s to work the ‘Orders on high’ angle? Oh that’s right, they already tried that one and it FAILED. Why not take a vacation in Cambodia?

#7 jules 187: I must be just about the only person on Earth that admires Donald Rumsfeld.

I suspect there are a lot of people who admire Rumsfeld who don't like Bush. I think Kerry is making a big mistake here.

#8 Seppuku
The Seppuku Ritual
The loser received a chance to keep his honor.

If the circumstances allowed it, the ritual suicide was executed in a formal, procedural manner. Even spectators liberal press were not uncommon. The suicide candidate was clad in a white kimono fatigues will do here .
Now the seppuku candidate was supposed to take a short dagger and cut his abdomen by slicing it from the left lower part of his upper body upwards in right direction. This must have been extremely painful. Then the candidate was supposed to lower his neck. This was the sign for the assistant, the kaishakunin hmm how about Michael Moore that would be fitting, who stood behind him, to proceed to the last step - to blow off the seppuku candidate's head the really good part- possibly with one blow of his sword. The kaishakunin could be a person close to him, sometimes his best friend. The kaishakunin had it in his hands to shorten the suffering Mikey could make a documentary oops take three of the suicider by executing a strong and swift blow.

Suicide was often committed by samurai warriors and noblemen on the battlefield well that leaves Hanoi John out .

#9 God! Are they ever going to stop soddomizing that poor dead horse?

#11 I heard a great point on the radio this morning: How can Kerry, who admitted to personally committing war crimes call for Rumsfeld's resignation? Rumsfeld had no -- zero, zip, nada -- responsibility for what happened at Abu Ghraib, but Kerry used his own Zippo to torch a village!

#12 Since when is Kerry getting his talking points from Bernie Ward? Oh, well: one leftist is pretty much like another....

#14 I'm willing to hold the sword....but um..since sharp pointy objects are dangerous, I'll make sure the edge is good and blunt.

#15 Kerry: atrocities were committed. Rumsfeld should resign.

Kerry: I committed the same attrocities in that...(blah blah blah)... therefore I should be president.

#16 Oh, Atropanthe, you made a yucky day turn around 180. I'm still wiping the tears from my eyes.
