the media....the enemy within

[gardenweasel]

every so often a blurb runs across the bottom of my screen with war updates....this is what i just saw....

"7 palestinian civilians killed by u.s. troops at checkpoint...soldiers waited to long to fire warning shots"......"44 u.s troops dead....145 injured....7 captured"......'coalition troops meet stiff resisitance at najaf"..."administration underestimated iraqi resisitance".."a tiny victory as water runs to umm kasr".......

the figures may not be exactly right,but that`s not the point.....does everyone see the prevailing sentiment here?......i swear,if we win this damned war,we will have to defeat much,much more than just the iraqi army......i truly believe,that if this war goes badly,it will have much more to do with the negative bombardment of the media wearing down the resolve of the american people,than anything the iraqi army will have done......the enemy within......and my theory,although many will disagree,is that this is the media`s way of getting their pound of flesh for the past presidential election debacle....

where`s the media regarding red cross access to the p.o.w.`s

.why isn`t the media pounding the airwaves asking why the red cross isn`t allowed access to their p.o.w.`s?......has anybody seen this point emphatically made?......what the hell is the media doing?.....why aren`t they pounding this point home?.....i wonder....where`s the pressure?

leftist media could care less about POW's....they would rather bring down the country

Morons like Rush Limbaugh are the losers that poison the country.

Where is the right wing media people in regards to veterans benefits being cut back dramatically by the same administration that sends them into harms way? Probably too busy drooling in admiration. Yep, really supporting the troops. What do you want? Censorship?

the past presidential election debacle....

I am still wondering why we didnt just have a new election and admit the first one was screwed up. It seems to me the most powerful nation in the world would want to elect the president and make sure the process is right, at any cost..................

That crap is running acrosse all networks. And the good is down there two. And if it has change to say soldiers waited to long to fire warning shots. That's brand new info. Had to come from the questons ask about why it happened in the first place. Then it had to be released by the pentagon. I looked on CNN did not see that.
