Also as per the second story I linked you to, the docs who told Lynch's mother that she had been shot were unnamed

Not only are the docs unnamed, the entire docs-telling-Lynch's-mother story is unquoted and it is left completely vague by the media organizations that report it.

We don't know which doctor told the mom or even if any doctor told the mom and we don't know what exactly the doctors said if they indeed did tell the mom.

This is what I'm talking about. It is important information that is left Freeping vague and it is left vague by the news organizations who report it.

They are the ones who know the unnamed sources and know the full quotes. Yet they leave it out -- such important detail.

If the WP, ABC news and and AP wanted to -- or at least the AP -- they could bust those unnamed sources wide-open right now. But they don't do it.

Why? Do you think they are really covering for the pentagon -- you can't be serious!

I never have posted much about Pvt. Lynch. The left wing media made a complete mess with the whole affair and it has been a slap in the face to a lot of heroic soldiers who did much more. Nice troll brainshrub.

DU Post.

Quick reminder don't brag in open places.

Notice the glaring contradiction in this Newsweek report. In one account, they accurately report that Lynch's unit was ambushed. Ambushed meaning to be attacked by those who lay hidden in order so suprise and apply maximum carnage.

Then in the next account they give serious consideration to the complaint that the rescuers were overly prepared for resistance because there were no Iraqi resistance that was visible -- nevermined that there MIGHT be attackers laying hidden in order to suprise and apply maximum carnage to the rescuers.

I agree with you. If the rescuers had proceeded any other way, it would have been irresposible. Can you imagine what the press would be saying now if they casually walked in there and picked up Lynch's strecher only to be mowed down by the enemy. Duh!

I'm under the name: "The masked Conservative." I love messing with their heads. I'll post stuff like:

On a story about how Dean Left Episcopal Church over a bike path?
"Didn't a team of Republican activists go through the Vermont public records about a month ago? Is this all they came up with???"

or


On a topic where the Freepers were saying that the US could never have a Canadian-style healthcare system.
"It's terrible the way the Canadians are ripping of the American people. It costs billions of dollars not only from the companies, but govt research grants to make these medications...and then the Canadians get to set the price?

The Canadians are causeing the price of healthcare to go up in this country because now the drug companies need charge Americnas more to make a profit.

The only reason the Canadian socialized-medicine works is because rich Canadians cross the boarder into the United States to get healthcare. The poorer Canadians sometimes have to wait a few weeks to get their operations. The Canadian healthcare system is hopelessly broken and I am sick of subsidizing someone elses healthcare. One wonders what people in every other industrial country do to get the healthcare they need since they can't drive to the US for treatment."


Word of advice: Don't make a good point, or you'll have to create a new account.

Nice work, Manfreid!

You were right, having the first through third wives spending their lives digging and building underground record storage bunkers paid off!
