Many thanks for sharing your interview with us Patterico. Should anyone really be surprised that the truth conflicts with the MSM’s portrayal of conditions at Guitmo?

Hopefully our troops on the ground in Iraq will be able to gain access to your interview through the internet, and after discovering what goes on at that Cuban Resort they will take whatever steps are necessary to reduce the number of captured enemy insurgents … if you get my drift.

I believe it would be a learning experience if we were to exchange American prisoners who are locked up for commiting crimes with Guantamo prisoners. You pick any prison inside the district of any democrat who has screamed about the supposed tortures, and then let’s see how well those Guantanamo captives fare.

The later investigation into that would be most educational.

Can we put Joe Arpaio in charge of Gitmo for a while? The man knows how to run a jail like its a jail. And there is no reason for the detainees in Gitmo to have ANY coffee at all, let alone a second cup. They have no reason to be awake!

Others claim they continue to be tortured and treated as less than human because they weren’t given a second cup of coffee with breakfast.

Oh my GOD! Get my lawyer on the line! I’m going to sue myself for not providing myself a second cup of coffee with breakfast! What Horrors!

I only believe half of what I see in the “main stream” media, and none of what I hear. Looks like it’s a good idea, especially for Club Gitmo.

“That’s just Q&A, isn’t it?”

Not really. I ask him to respond to reports of press accounts of Gitmo. He says some interesting stuff, especially regarding interrogations.

By the way, I haven’t had the chance to check out these reports Patterico, but thanks for doing them in advance. I’m sure they’re quite interesting, and quite conflicting with the MSM image of Gitmo.

I've been talking about the Gitmo "abuse" for a while... Specifically I mentioned a few months back the abusing cookies and ice cream these terrorists get, in addition their extensive gourmet menu they pick their meals from. The food is certainly something American prisoners only dream of, and I would argue it's probably better, with more variety than what I eat! It all came to a head this week though when it was revealed that these people are becoming fat asses. A lot of them came in underweight, and on avg. they've gained 20 lbs.! I maintain that many of these modern day cavemen have never lived as well as they are at Gitmo.

Actually, there’s one more coming.
