The Record Is Skipping On Abu Ghraib Now everyone can see the fun photos of Abu Ghraib.   Didn't see any torture going on.  A lot of humiliation going on though.  They all deserve every bit of the misery they went through, but that still isn't torture.  The prison guards did, however, show some creativity in different ways to stack a pile of human excrement.   This is what torture looks like, at the hands of terrorists.   Salon.com must be feeling proud to be the first to re-publish 3-year old photos of a situation that was pretty much handled months before the first pics appeared.  But hey, if you have nothing new, rewind the old.   Whatever it takes, right?
