2. Yes, with 1 AA soldier.
WP this morning only shows AAs celebrating last night. Possibly a clue as to how the MSM will promote Obama but not an accurate portrayal of Obama's support.

3. Finally help and support for them is on the way as Afghanistan
has been forgotten due to bush's folly in Iraq.

4. This should have been on all the channels! The MSM just can't admit the right man won this time!

6. The troops in Iraq were very pro-Obama or Clinton last spring. The MSM did not report that...
The press talks to a couple of high-ranking career officers and assumes ALL troops are right wing cranks. They're not.
