Good clean fun

A defence lawyer says there's nothing wrong with US troops piling up naked prisoners, or holding them on a leash in Abu Ghraib prison.

"'Cheerleaders all over America form pyramids,'"

Ah, but there are good pyramids and bad ones, like relationships, some can be abusive. Smartarse.

"'You've probably been at a mall or airport and seen children on tethers. They're not being abused,' said Womack, a former US marine."

But you'd sure like to abuse the little tykes, ay? No, not funny.

This bullshit should not distract from the reality. The 'kind' of pyramids formed in Abu Ghraib caused nervous breakdowns. They caused heart attacks. They were inhumane and incredibly cruel.

They were also sanctioned by the U.S. Government Admin. After all, this is war, right?

Animals.
