6. NO NO NO - Boycott establishment media is the answer
That's the only way to make them do their job. Today we have an alternative - get your news off the net.

Sun Mar 20, 5:09 PM ET White House - AP Cabinet & State
By SIOBHAN McDONOUGH, Associated Press Writer


WASHINGTON - The level of insurgency in postwar Iraq wouldn't be so high if the U.S.-led coalition had been able to invade from the north, through Turkey, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said Sunday.

Rumsfeld told "Fox News Sunday" that if the United States had able to get its 4th Infantry Division into northern Iraq through Turkey, more of Saddam's Baathist regime would have been captured or killed, diminishing the insurgency.

U.S. forces had to enter Iraq from the south, so by the time Baghdad was taken, much of Saddam's military and intelligence services had dissipated into the northern cities, Rumsfeld said. "They're still, in a number of instances, still active," he said.

10. Had he used the number of troops in Gen. Zinni's plan, as Gen. Shinseki...
...wanted to do, it would be a different ball game.

11. Damn those evil Turks.
I live in an area with a big Turkish population, and I regularly eat Turkish food.

But I'm not eating another morsel until they rename shish kebabs "freedom skewers".
