Yes, I have posted several, very similar articles on this issue.

Part of the reason I do so, is to keep a record of them. Many times, an article will be archived and no longer freely available from the source, so I post it here (and on Google) to make sure it is available long after the fact.

I learned my lesson after the the flap over the Boy Scout color guard being booed at the 2000 Democratic Convention. Initially, the media ignored the report, and it wasn't until the Wash. Times did a detailed article that other, conservative media picked up on it.

Of course, now liberals deny the event ever happened, and they cite the fact that no "mainstream" media covered it, and the only places it is mentioned are right-wing media, which they discount as unreliable sources.

In fact, the LA Times actually broke the story, but it is no longer available on their public website. So now whenever I see an article, I post the whole thing so it can be retrieved for later use.

You mean people actually booed boys who only wanted to provide service and show their patriotism? Wow! Unbelievable!!

This story should have been trumpeted from every conservative source. What scumbags!

O'Reilly and Rush ran with the story.

The MSM ignored it.

I remember Ellen Ratner defending the dim moonbats on FOX.
