Abu Ghraib School Spirit
FORT HOOD, Texas (Reuters) - A lawyer for Charles Graner, accused ringleader in the Iraq prisoner abuse scandal, on Monday compared piling naked prisoners into pyramids to cheerleader shows and said leashing inmates was also acceptable prisoner control.

Guy Womack, Graner's attorney, said in opening arguments to the 10-member U.S. military jury at the reservist sergeant's court-martial: "Don't cheerleaders all over America form pyramids six to eight times a year. Is that torture?"

No, except when you get cheerleaders doing a pyramid naked, you usually have to pay that website six to eight bucks a month.

Besides, it makes sense that this form of physically enforced school spirit is a policy of the Bush Administration, since that was what he clung to when he couldn't make the teams in high school.
