Fuck you mainstream media.
How about: "Concerned Troops Ask Questions" instead?

Did you hear the rest of the troops cheer? Are they all 'disgruntled' too?

I am so sick of this bullshit mainstream media as nothing more than a mouthpiece of the government.

1. It's all about "supporting the troops"

until the troops begin to question why they're being played. Or if they run against a Republican for public office.

Then they're evil, cowardly, and anti-American.

2. I agree, but check this out...

I just went on Sinclair's web site. It said they have SOLD 2 of their TV stations, so far(one in K.C. and the other in San Fran., I think)!

That's what really needs to happen, We need some of the Millionaires and Billionaires, that backed Kerry, to buy back some Media control.:think:

3. On the BBC World Service this am they played a snippet of

one soldier asking why they had to go to dumps to get stuff to protect their vehicles with? I didn't hear ONE BOO....I heard a gasp of surprise, but no one booed the guy.

Then Rummy says: "You can't choose what you want to fight with, you have to fight with what you are given" that's a broad paraphrase (I was just waking up when I heard it....)...but there was no question that Rummy answered in his typical snipppy, snide, arrogant manner...

5. They weren't gasps of surprise - they were Hooahs and applause

that he asked what they all were thinking. Ed Schultz has been playing that segment over and over. He said the media cut some of the applause

4. Rated it

6. Wilson, the soldier who spoke out

is a Tennessee NG member, 278th. His ex-wife was just on local TV supporting him and saying Rumsfield's answer: "You go to war with the army you have" was 'ridiculous.'

Retirees from the 278th also support him.

Way to go, Tennessean! Courage and conviction. Rumsfield is an uncaring IDIOT.

Edit to say Charlie Gibson and crew showed this on the abc morning show.
