What do you think?

I suspect that the fact that they are being tried by the military will make it at least possible -- but this kind of pressure from the very top will certainly make it difficult for the defense.

You work for a TV station. Your employer is plastering the the pictures on the news every night, not Bush. He is probably the one guy who wants this situation to go away more than anybody. Last week he was accused of covering up the abuse. Now you are complaining that he is is talking about the abuse.

I really don't care if they get a fair trial. They are guilty.
