firing the Sec DEF is not going to do one iota toward accountability of the
government contractors who were, in reality running the show over there (and
many places elsewhere as well.) I will never believe that the Gis that were
working as MPs took the initiative to do all this on their own, without either
sanctions or specific instructions from the ones who were really running the
show.
Enlisted military are trained to be followers not leaders, and the ultimate
blame must be placed on the superiors, including the contractors.
Instead, under pressure from the news media, the poor enlistees are going to
play the fall guy for this event, which incidentally took place over seven
months ago.

The only solid suggestion I've heard to date is that Bush should fire Rumsfeld
(not wait for a resignation) and then completely raze the prison.
Sort of like the high amputation that was the only first aid for plutonium
poisoning during the Manhattan project.
It won't happen, but I can't see anything less being enough.
