Remember them trying to compare Iraqi resistance with post-WW II Germany?

http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/uniontrib/thu/opinion/news_mz1e15golds.html

second half of the story down the page....

snip:
A Fox contributor named Rand Simberg, described as "consultant in space commercialization, space tourism and Internet security" made up the Reuters dispatch for Fox on July 30 (posting it on his own Web site two days later). This was only a week before the first Bush references were made to German "werewolves" in one of several inept comparisons to World War II.

1. I am amazed that this is in the Union Trib!

When I lived in San Diego some years back the Trib was always a right wing bird cage liner.

2. A good article, thanks!

From what I've been reading elsewhere, the comparison to the US and the SS would be closer to the real facts in Iraq! The Iron Chancellor Chimp and fellow conspirators in crime, are not making many friends and winning many hearts and minds, as promised by the used care salesmen like, pre-war warmongers!

BTW I e-mailed the guy at the link you posted, a "Thank You" for his rare honesty, so lacking in the media!
