The Democrats and the media put a higher priority on getting rid of George Bush than they do on getting rid of international terrorism.

I collect old time radio shows and if you listen to the shows from WWII it is amazing at how positive the media was toward the war effort. There was no second guessing of FDR or of Eisenhower. The media saw itself as a participant in an effective war effort. Bad news was always tempered by good news and hope.

Today the media has no loyalty to the United States. They are all multinational corporations who are run by leftist ideologues. They not only could care less that we might lose the war because of their bad press, they are rooting for the enemy.

If you get a chance go back and listen to some old radio shows from 1942 to 1945. And then compare it to today's media presentation of our war on terrorism. Then ask yourself which side do you think they are on?

The RATS will pay for this...... They are guilty of politicizing this war in their effort ot oust Bush, and their actions have given aid and comfort to the enemy with their baseless attacks on our efforts in Iraq, and that maybe one of those Democrat spineless worms could actually get elected if they attacked and killed more Americans.

May God have mercy on their Souls

It's a sad and unfortunate thing, but the thing they are fighting for is, among other things, free speech. Nattering Nabobs of Negativism, and it's even more true today. The VietCong in the tunnels had a dearth of satelite dishes, but probably not the bad guys in Iraq.

Still, if you really want the job done right, perhaps they should go get Baghdad Bob out of retirement. He had it down pat.

'There's blood on the hands of the American media.'

Not to mention Daschle. Today in response to the press conference, he said, "If this is progress, I don't know how much more we can take."

Disgusting traitor.

If the Iraq war is not Vietnam now it will be by the time the American media
get done with it.

I hereby nominate the New York Times for 2003 Quisling Award, and the big 3
networks and cnn for the 2003 Benedict Arnold Medal.

The US liberal leftist press has given aid and comfort to our enemy in Iraq. They ought to be ashamed but then liberals have no shame.

It's painfully obvious, that in a presidential election cycle the democrat dominated media doesn't wish to see a Republican president handed a victory of any kind, especially one on the war they were foursquare against. A war in which they have been carping against continuously, investing all the power of Georbels on steriods to try to sway the hearts and minds of the American people.

In leau of a full-on torch and pitchfork assault, people need to keep doing what they're doing, just tuning the propagandists at CBS\NBC\ABC and CNN out. Then they'll eventually come a-beggin' for us to keep their sorry hydes on the air by trying to change their stripes. It won't work, we won't be buying it, and they and there socialist nightmare will be gone.

Well, I can hope anyway. Remember, the more people learn the truth about socialism, the more they oppose it.

Man you just KNOW this is going to cause some serious madness on the part of the liberal media.

You just know it's coming.

You know, when the libs are so afraid of something that they reach the red alert of looney behaviour.

I cannot wait.

This should be good for another few days of serious comedy.

I don't think it's just the media. It's the All-Negative-All-The-Time lousy/slanted Iraq coverage, COMBINED with representatives from ONE OF THE TWO MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIIES IN THE U.S.A. coming out publicly, on a daily basis, renouncing the war in Iraq, complaining, saying we are losing, we should get out, exc...

This COMBINATION of factors is what's sending the message to Saddam loyalist's and Al Queda -that if they KEEP ATTACKING OUR SOLDIERS-EVENTUALLY WE WILL GIVE UP-AND THEY WIN. -This is the message the drunken-blimp Kennedy, and the rest of the 'rats, are sending to our ennemies. There is no arguing about this point: We have Saddam Huessein saying this on tape (and I think we have something from Al Queda too) -Saddam telling his people to keep attacking- because the Americans are weak- they will give up.-I really wish President Bush would trade in the "new tone" for a roll of duct tape- tape their irresponsible, stupid mouths shut, the next time they go spouting off, and sending this message to the world. But I guess he can't do that.

At the very least , during the up-coming election- I'd like to see him bring this up. Make the differences clear to the American people - democrats want to run away and hide from the War on Terror, and pretend 9/11 never happened- Our getting out of Iraq ,before it is stable, would be the single worst, most dangerous, message we could send to our ennemies- But the dems would send this message loud and clear- - that we are weak, and run at the first sign of difficulty= as much as giving an engraved invitation to AlQueda, and any other radical islams, to come and attack us . (If you all remember- OBL attacked us 9/11- because he thought we'd fall apart, give up, surrneder.

Name ONE THING the democrat party has done to HELP AMERICA in The War on Terror, since 9/11?

Yes, that's right, I said name something/anything the dems have done to help America?

What's that you say democrat...You don't understand the question?

No, no-"putting John Ahscroft on trial" doesn't count
I didn't say, name one thing you did to help the detainess/terrorists ... I'm asking about America.

How have you helped.... What's that you say.
..."calling Afghanistan a quagmire 1 week into combat"?
...no, that's helping the Taliban....

America democrats, America- How have you helped Am......

"The U.N"....
no, that's helping France...

Let me spell it out for you: A-m-e-r-i-c-a, you know, the place we all call home..
What are you saying now?....

"No WMD's, Iraq's a quagmire"....
This is REALLY A HARD QUESTION FOR YOU isn't it dems?....

Thanks for the ping........ The media can and does influence opinion and they have a responsibility to be accurate in their reporting.... When involved with military actions they can impact soldier's lives so they need to be very mindful of their reporting so as not to endanger our military.

Anyone who understands the "mainstream" media in this country (or any other, for that matter) knows that the media wants the US to fail, just as they did in Vietnam.

Paraphrasing the Army colonel's words, the New York Republican said,

"I just want you to know that there's blood on the hands of the American media; that my men and women are going to die because of them."

Anyone here disagree with this? I thought not.
