I realize that the difference bwtween what was done and who did it is a subtle one....but the neat thing about the english language is that it is rich and complex enough to allow such subtlety. Durbin is stating that if you did not know who was doing THIS...you would think that the speaker was describing nazi POW tactics..... the focus of his sentence is on WHAT was being done to prisoners and how descpicable it was....Do I think he could have made his point with more tact? Certainly, and I have said that on numerous occasions. Do I think he was calling our troops NAZIS? No I do not and he later went on to clarify that exact point...but you really don't care about what he meant, you only care about eh GOTCHA value that you derive from repeating it over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. boring. what other cut and paste gems do you have for us today? ANy more tasteless Clinton jokes?
