Now it's blame "the media"

Wouldn't Rummy insist on embedded reporters, at least from FAUX, documenting the new power plants, water treatment plants, electric plants, schools full of smiling children, the cafes full of people, the general building of a rejuvenated downtown Baghdad?

He can't because there isn't.

We knew that the RW would pull this crap just like they did near the end of Vietnam.
They are liars and con-artists.
Snakes in the grass.
It's their failed policies, they refuse to take responsibility for, that have led us to this.
Pure and simple.

Another question never answered by the MFing rightwingnuts;

If the media is so LIBRUL, how come rightwingnuts OPPOSE reinstating the FAIRNESS DOCTRINE?

2. It was like this during Vietnam from the get-go

Always with the GOOD NEWS!

DEMOCRATIC elections! Look, they're having them!

NEW WATER SYSTEM! Yea, we're bringing America to Southeast Asia!

Meanwhile, Charlie is executing all the newly elected reps from some village. Or killing the local elected officials who are in bed with Uncle Sam.

When you have 150,000 troops in country, you can control any specific area you want, but you can't control 90% of the country. Our troops are safe only when hunkered down now.

3. The Pubs bounce from one ridiculous claim after another.

They are trying to find something that has traction. But, their credibility has dropped so low, nothing they say has any weight. They have lost their mo jo.

5. Damn you, Gutenberg, damn you to Hell!

They truly believe that no news is good news. Faux notwithstanding, of course.

Hey, the liberal light is always on at the Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy. Please stop by and say "hi!"
