Isn't it uncanny how much progress we're making in Iraq lately? I mean, I'm just talking about the prisoner situation alone. For over a year we've had up to 8,000 prisoners in Abu Ghraib, and just in the last few weeks, we've released three groups, up to 500 at a time! I think we just had to get all those darned details about processing them straightened out, and then, voila! we can get them back out on the streets now. Hoo boy, that was a tough nut to crack, but by golly, we cracked it.
The military said earlier in May that recent releases were part of a months-old program to cut numbers and not linked to the prisoner-abuse scandal...

Oh, we knew
that.
I wonder, though....are we releasing prisoners from the other detention centers we have over there?
