Here is the first sentence from Limbacher's piece. Nowhere in that sentence does he question what the 'Progressive Review' is writing. The rest of the article follows along those lines -- which is to say that Limbacher accepts at face value what these apparently left-leaning outfits are writing:
Although the media repeatedly refers to the men killed in the recent attack in Iraq as "civilian contractors,? they were in fact mercenaries used as part of the U.S. government's outsourcing of jobs, reports the Progressive Review.
"civilian contractors"? Were they there to put up drywall?
Their must exist a definition to describe this type of occupation other than mercenary. "Imported security detail"?
