Bush: Duncan Hunter is un-American

Bush claims that the U.S. is fighting torture, and in the process manages to slam some of his strongest backers:

America will not pretend that jailed dissidents prefer their chains.

The problem is that that's exactly what Republican Rep. Duncan Hunter pretended about Guantanamo detainees a couple of weeks ago:

The inmates at Guantanamo have never eaten better, they have never been treated better, they have never been more comfortable in their lives than in this situation.

And Hunter's not the only example of such wingnuttery - in fact some conservatives are putting together a Guantanamo cookbook in support of the administration, and claiming that the fact that detainees have put on weight means that they're being treated well. I'd hope that being denounced by their own president would lead to some views being reconsidered. But of course I have my doubts.
