Who disgraces the American flag more than Donald "I don't do (fill in the blank)" Rumsfeld, Dick "go f--k yourself" Cheney and George W. "we do not torture to the point of organ failure" Bush?
It seems that we have a policy of kidnapping families of detainees in the "war on terror". From Salon:
Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has until 5 p.m. Friday to hand over a raft of documents to Congress that might shed new light on detainee abuse in Iraq. The documents could substantiate little-known allegations that U.S. forces have tried to break terror suspects by kidnapping and mistreating their family members.

It now appears that kidnapping, scarcely covered by the media, and absent in the major military investigations of detainee abuse, may have been systematically employed by U.S. troops. Salon has obtained Army documents that show several cases where U.S. forces abducted terror suspects' families. After he was thrown in prison, Cpl. Charles Graner, the alleged ringleader at Abu Ghraib, told investigators the military routinely kidnapped family members to force suspects to turn themselves in.
Who drags America's good name through the mud day after day, week after week, month after month, revelation after sorry revelation? Who has taken America from the tragedy of 9/11 to moral (not to mention fiscal) bankruptcy?
One is tempted to ask "what more could they do?" ...silly...Flag desecration. Ha. The America I know is being destroyed by these assholes.
