And MORE trouble coming down the Line -- for Rummy

Wow, sounds like the August 9th edition of Newsweek has a lot of bad news for BushCo. This time with the Commission to investigage abuses of prisoners.

In mid-August, the commission that Schlesinger chairs—handpicked by Rumsfeld from members of his own Defense Policy Board—is expected to issue its final report on abuses by U.S. interrogators stemming from the Abu Ghraib Prison scandal. NEWSWEEK has learned the Schlesinger panel is leaning toward the view that failures of command and control at the Pentagon helped create the climate in which the abuses occurred.

The four-member commission's report is still being drafted and its final conclusions are not yet definite. But there is strong sentiment to assign some responsibility up the line to senior civilian officials at the Pentagon, including Rumsfeld, several sources close to the discussions say


Funny, how those fraternity pranks, and handful of bad apples is creeping ever larger, ever higher and becoming less of a fraternity.

Good thing Tom Ridge is coming out to declare an Orange Alert according to CNN.
