President Obama says the Attorney General can review the actions of Bush officials who OK'ed waterboarding, reports Bill Plante. Harry Smith talks to Janis Karpinski who oversaw Iraqi prisons in 2003.
It's worth clarifying that Janis Karpinski was not "prosecuted" as Smith, perhaps innocently, implies. She requested, but did not receive a court martial. Her promotion was vacated by Presidential order, a cowardly dodge that avoided having to prove that she was at fault, or that the rest of the chain was squeaky clean.
And then they wonder why muslims hate this crazy f..cks?
