In Which I Decide to Get Political

The Washington Post asks us if these new Abu Ghraib pictures surfacing 'wrench us further away from...closure'. You're right they do, and they should. We have no right to closure, not when those who have perpetrated, encouraged, and ordered this degrading treatment still free, unpunished, shooting 78-year-old men in the face, slaughtering innocent civilians and pen-raised pheasants by the truckload. The current American government is built on a foundation of terror-mongering, lies, and corruption. They want to keep us afraid of the bogeyman so they can sell us to the lowest bidder.
