"A Man Cannot Serve Two Masters"

So sayeth the Bible. Yae, verily.

So it's hard to understand how US Army doctors at Abu Ghraib, who are sworn to the Hypocratic Oath, could have stood by and allowed abuse and torture. Or even falsified death certificates. Or even "revived prisoners so that the abuse could continue"!

Similarly, former Presidential contender Gary Hart says the US cannot be both Empire and Republic.

Unfortunately, Hart's denunciation of the war is full of the usual Democrat political waffling:

"The war has substantially contributed to anti-American sentiments throughout the region and possibly throughout the Islamic world."

Actually, that should be: "definitely" throughout the "entire" world, Gary.

"The Iraqi people seem to be resisting."

No kidding??!
