Forget The PR

Jaeger, on the already-wearing-thin Iraqi Prison Scandal Outrage[tm];

Bush could haul Rumsfeld out in public and do a Daniel Pearl on him, offering up his head on a silver platter to be used in the next soccer game in Fallujah and the opponents would say it’s not enough. He could it follow that up and commit hari-kari on Al-Jazeera and they’d say he took the easy way out, and anyway Wolfowitz is still pulling the strings so nothings changes. So forget about the public relations and just do what’s necessary to restore discipline, punish the guilty and get on with it.
