Rush's big drug-addicted mouth

Friends and Family,

The torture at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq has been universally decried by both Democrats and Republicans as inhumane, and the fall out has dramatically increased the danger to our troops. But according to
Rush Limbaugh, what happened was no worse than what we college students do every day.

Tell Rush Limbaugh to apologize for using students to excuse torture:

Last week Limbaugh told his estimated 20 million listeners that the torture was exactly like “a college fraternity prank that stacked up naked men”, and that it was “no different than what happens at the Skull and Bones initiation [an Ivy league secret society] …ever heard of blowing off steam!?!?”

Limbaugh is trying to use us, students and some students in fraternities, to trivialize these atrocities. Campus pranks and voluntary initiation rituals bear no resemblance to the illegal acts of sexual torture we have seen coming out of Iraq. We will not be used as part of Rush’s political game.

This is not a joke. As John Warner, the Republican chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee said, these events will seriously hurt “the conduct of the war against terrorism, and place in jeopardy
the men and women of the armed forces wherever they are serving in the world.” Limbaugh’s reckless comments, broadcast across the globe, will only serve to make that danger worse. I think that the decapitation of Nick Berg proves this.

Limbaugh must apologize on air for his comments. Fraternities do not violate international law by raping and torturing political prisoners, and what happened in Iraq was not “blowing off steam.”

Limbaugh is not used to accountability. It's about time he found out what it feels like.
