"Cheney, Gonzales indicted for alleged prisoner abuse"
The Reaction — By Michael J.W. Stickings I highly doubt anything will come of it, but, still, it's a nice headline. (No, it has nothing to do with Abu Ghraib or Gitmo. It concerns abuse in federal detention centers. Which is no doubt extremely serious, but it would be better to have them indicted for war crimes, human rights abuses, and, more generally, abuse of power, including sanctioning torture.)
