May 26, 2004  |  President Bush has condemned the torture of Iraqi prisoners, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld labeled it “un-American” and a recent Gallup poll found 79 percent of Americans “bothered” by the abuses. But Rush Limbaugh was gleeful. For weeks, the conservative talk show host has been dismissing the scandal as a “fraternity prank,” mocking Democrats and others for expressing outrage and suggesting the prison humiliation -- which he dubbed “a brilliant maneuver” -- was “no different than what happens at the Skull and Bones initiation” at Yale. He described the images of torture as “pictures of homoeroticism that look like standard good old American pornography” and assured his listeners “there was no horror, there was no terror, there was no death, there was no injuries, nothing.”
