This isn't funny, but when I look at Gitmo/Abu Gharib/Bagram, Rick Santorum's comments this Sunday on "This Week," what it took to go to a presidential appearance (the loyalty pledges), the tossing of the Geneva convention, and the current death toll in Iraq, I think of this comment as the description of the current holders of power in this country, not Al Q.

That all may also be true of them, but this is a pot calling a kettle black.
