"In the middle of what's happening in Iraq, for most Americans what happened at Abu Ghraib might as well be Romper Room."-- Rush Limbaugh, San Jose, CA, Feb 8, 2005
The funny thing about Limbaugh's quote is not that he is so crass and inhumane as to suggest that the rape, torture and murder of Iraqis by American soldiers and intelligence personnel amounts to fun and games. It's that he managed to completely distort a fairly obscure AP news story, "Navy Seal says Iraqi who died at Abu Ghraib was roughed up in CIA's 'romper room.'"
