Inaction by Levin proves politics rules

This morning on Fox News Sunday, the host asked Senator Carl Levin as the senior Democrat on the Senate Armed Service when the prison abuse scandel originally broke in January of 2004 what he did? Nothing. Levin said that the reports of allegations of abuse didn't indicate the depth of the problem.

Huh?

Senator Levin, how would you know how deep the abuse goes unless you investigate? Are you saying that when you hear that there are allegations of abuse it doesn't cause you to wonder?

What it says to me is that you don't care at all about the abuse, only the reaction of the public and the world to the abuse. It says your disgust is partisan, your questions are political, and your values are suspect.
