Only in DC
. . . would you have to apologize for saying that barbaric and fascistic behavior is, well, barbaric and fascistic.
Senator Durbin, I am disappointed in you. You were correct the first time. You should have refused to apologize. Shame on you for sucking up to the Republican Noise Machine. What's next: Barbara Boxer retracting her challenge to Ohio's electoral votes? Stand up for yourselves, Dems! No one is going to do it for you.
Durbin's original statement ("If I read this to you and did not tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags or some mad regime - Pol Pot or others - that had no concern for human beings.") was the dead-on truth.
Americans should be ashamed of the treatment the Guantanamo prisoners received. I, for one, am ashamed to be from the same country as those who condone this behavior.
