Soldier who revealed Abu Ghraib abuses to the world "accidentally" identified by name, by Rumsfeld, on national TV, after only agreeing to testify on condition of anonymity because he was terrified of what the other soldiers would do to him.

We really really need to be able to hold someone like Rumsfeld accountable for this sort of shit. It sounds like he didn't even get his wrists slapped, or anything.

There is no punishment adequate to this offense... but let's we not fail to try, okay?

So, the evil^* Baron von Rumsfeld has struck again? Let's hope that this time the mud sticks.

-- Steve's hoping that Mr. Darby doesn't suffer unduly for this revelation... and would like to remind the Cro Magnon types that the eyes of the world are looking to Mr. Darby's wellbeing now.

^*(As a friend of mine put it in early 2001, "Of course he's evil! Just look at him! All he needs is a black cape and a leitmotif!")

I wholeheartedly second Steve's hope and reminder.

Ever seen Cheney in a tux? Scariest fucking thing. You keep looking for the joined fingers, the cigarette holder, and some sort of giant novelty bird.
