More R's are taking an independent line...

this is good...

[T]hree United States senators on Sunday called for an international investigation into the violence. They also issued a stern rebuke to Uzbekistan's authoritarian government.

The statement by the three Republican senators, John McCain of Arizona, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and John Sununu of New Hampshire, came amid new details of the conduct of the Uzbek security forces during and after the violence, including claims that injured victims have disappeared from hospitals and that troops had fired on a civilian ambulance during the crackdown, killing three medical workers inside.

every r that comes out and questions bushco's policies regarding the treatment of detainees, the methods of countries that have been used by the u.s. for "extraordinary rendition" and/or claimed by the u.s. as "allies in the 'war against terror,'" the higher the odds that, at some point, there may actually be some forced accountability... however, i'm not holding my breath...
