2. Great collection of news on that site, too...

I loved this one:

Rumsfeld cancels trip due to war crimes accusations -- US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld cancelled a planned visit to Germany after a US human rights organisation asked German authorities to prosecute him for war crimes, Deutsche Presse-Agentur (dpa) has learned. The New York-based Centre for Constitutional Rights filed a complaint in December with the Federal German Prosecutor's Office against Rumsfeld accusing him of war crimes and torture in connection with detainee abuses at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison.

Guess he thought they'd grab him as soon as he stepped onto German soil.

3. DCers are great!

A great job by all who attended protests and vigils. :yourock:
I hope for quick release from jail for all detainees.

I hope a big lawsuit is launched for the pepper sraying of snow ball pitchers. Kind of a bully tactict for cops who can't make snowballs!

4. What's the difference between pepper spraying people with firehoses

because they protest WhatsHisFace while they were contained behind fences & Saddam Hussein using chemical agents against his own protestors?

None!

5. Rumsfeld has created a new 'counter'terrrorism secret unit - initials *SS*

Bush's Waffen SS: Secret Unit Expands Rumsfeld's Domain --New Espionage Branch Delving Into CIA Territory --The Pentagon, expanding into the CIA's historic bailiwick, has created a new espionage arm and is reinterpreting U.S. law to give Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld broad authority over clandestine operations abroad, according to interviews with participants and documents obtained by The Washington Post. The previously undisclosed organization, called the Strategic Support Branch , arose from Rumsfeld's written order to end his "near total dependence on CIA" for what is known as human intelligence. Designed to operate without detection and under the defense secretary's direct control, the Strategic Support Branch deploys small teams of case officers, linguists, interrogators and technical specialists alongside newly empowered special operations forces.
