Ah now we are into Rachel's story

how is life here? Rachel I can answer that question. It is hell, like every other warzone across history. Just that most people don't want to hear 'bout it.

Thanks for doing this Rachel.

2. Madow, went to Afghanistan

to try to cover and answer what the hell we are doing there. This is the most in depth reporting since the war started.

6. I wasn't knocking Rachel..

I think of her more as a commentator than a reporter.

It's the rest of the pathetic M$M that could better serve as Soylent Green.

7. Oh, I totally got what you were saying and I agree with you

100% about the rest of the MSM. Ms Logan told us exactly how the MSM covers these wars. Pathetic.

15. Sometimes I have absolutely no idea what you're saying...

"muted rank devices..."

What is telling about that? What IS that?

13. I just twitted her and congratulated her excellent reporting! The BEST I have seen from there!

It was like you were there with her and for the first time you got some really frank honest discussions from the Brig. Gen. Hodges who is there. I found it amazing what I learned in 1 hours time! She deserves an award for this! If you don't get cable she has it on her website and I suggest everyone take a look at it!

14. It was great reporting. She will be on again tonight.

Did u see all the men following her thru the market. And even sh had to do the head scarf to be safe. Such a different world. And I don't think our being there is much help. The cost to build the nation and do it with troops is extremely expensive.
