What happened to * promise to raze Abu Ghraib to the ground
and build a new prison? Remember that? Right after the shit broke out, he promised to destroy it. Nice gesture. Ehe, ehe.

3. He is treating it with the same diligent work ethic as his other promises.
Osama bin Forgotten, anyone?

And yes, I know that's on purpose. :P

Something like "Democracy Freedom Camp", or "Liberty Residential Spa", or, Freedom Family Fun Center" or something?

13. So, that's just one more thing to detonate. He could "dissemble" it.

12. Whatever comes out of his mouth, expect the opposite. You'll be safe

14. I think people in Iraq called him on it.
They knew it was just going to be a job for Haliburton and the new prison would be the same as the old.

15. He went up a bit in the polls.
Then the media forgot about it. So there was no need to talk about it anymore.
