Okay, I pick up on the little things, but when I read this article, this is what caught my eye.

Her family said Friday that she is four months pregnant with Graner's child.

I'm sorry. What?

I mean, it's none of our business whether she is pregnant or she isn't. And it honestly doesn't make me feel more sympathetic towards her, if that's what they were going for by saying that.

But here's the thing. Weren't those photos taken in January? 'Cause she's four months pregnant, which means she got pregnant in January, and the father is the soldier charged with her, and ...

Uh. My brain hurts.

She's fulfilling her womanly duty, duh. Add that to torturing those nasty brown people who don't know how to lay down and be subservient, and we shouldn't be charging her with a crime; we should be naming a national holiday after her.

And he's a wifebeater, and she was divorced before 21 AND raised in a trailer, and frankly NONE of this info is our business, but it's all sickly sadly fascinating anyway. Ugh. It just gets better and better, innit? I'm placing my bet right now that they'll STILL find some way to make her the Innocent Victim.

Have any of you seen this (http://www.nypost.com/news/nationalnews/20802.htm):

May 13, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - Shocking shots of sexcapades involving Pfc. Lynndie England were among the hundreds of X-rated photos and videos from the Abu Ghraib prison scandal shown to lawmakers in a top-secret Capitol conference room yesterday.

"She was having sex with numerous partners. It appeared to be consensual," said a lawmaker who saw the photos.

And, videos showed the disgraced soldier - made notorious in a photo showing her holding a leash looped around an Iraqi prisoner's neck - engaged in graphic sex acts with other soldiers in front of Iraqi prisoners, Pentagon officials told NBC Nightly News.

"Almost everybody was naked all the time," another lawmaker said.

Many members of Congress left the 45-minute viewing session early, thereby missing the porno performance by England, but there were enough other images of torture, humiliation and intimidation to sicken anyone.

"It was pretty disgusting, not what you'd expect from Americans," said Sen. Norm Coleman (R-Minn.). "There was lots of sexual stuff - not of the Iraqis, but of our troops."

"not what you'd expect from Americans".. hahahha.

Why were they stupid enough to take photos of it all?
