GOP "rebels"

Yeah, rebels.

"I'm pleased to say that this agreement preserves the single most potent tool we have in protecting America and foiling terrorist attacks," the president said, shortly after administration officials and key lawmakers announced agreement following a week of high-profile intraparty disagreement.

Sen. John McCain (news, bio, voting record) of Arizona, one of three GOP lawmakers who told Bush he couldn't have the legislation the way he initially asked for it, said, "The agreement that we've entered into gives the president the tools he needs to continue to fight the war on terror and bring these evil people to justice."

"There's no doubt that the integrity and letter and spirit of the Geneva Conventions have been preserved," McCain said, referring to the international treaties covering the treatment of prisoners in wartime.

We'll see.

Just hope you don't get a taste of the "integrity and 'letter and the spirit of the Geneva Conventions'" like this guy did.

"Rebels." Sheesh. The media has returned to lapdog status, just in time for the run-up to November.

UPDATED to correct a stupid mistake.
