Just when you thought the exagerrated reports of American torture of terrorists was over…

Scott Ott “reports”: “Sen. Dick Durbin, who recently compared U.S. personnel at the Guantanamo Bay terrorist-detention facility to Nazis, took the Senate floor today to slam U.S. troops in Iraq for their “progressive poisoning” of the imprisoned Saddam Hussein with snack foods.”

The Illinois Democrat’s criticism follows published reports that the former Iraqi president sometimes eats an entire family-sized bag of Doritos in 10 minutes.

While Doritos contain no trans-fats, eating such a large quantity at a single sitting subjects Mr. Hussein to high-levels of salt and puts him at risk of acute salivary-depletion syndrome, Mr. Durbin said.

“In our name, these junk-food jailers have loaded up Saddam with non-nutritive calories, thereby tarnishing our nation’s reputation in the Muslim world,” the Senator said. “President Hussein is locked up in a horrifying high-sodium slammer. No wonder the insurgents attack our troops.”

Has Amnesty heard about this yet? It’s another scandal in the making. What will America do next?

GatewayPundit says: “Bring on the Cheetos!”

UPDATE: (2/14/06)
Well, it took some time. And probably a great deal of duress.
But Saddam is finally saying no to filthy infidel junkfood.
Michelle Malkin has the story.
