If the media wants to try and channel the news, then we need to make the media's manipulations a story in its own right.
Laura Ingrham interviewed this fellow North (??) on his documentary about the surgical removal of people's hand under Saddam - chilling stuff.
He cannot get distribution for it. Even Fox News will not cover the story.
So they now have their own "October Surprise" if Kerry's Krew doesn't produce one.
Anyone has links? I want to show this to everyone...
The feelings of Sodom's victims don't count...Sodom->the media's darling posterboy of heroic resistance to the evil US!
My liberal as the day is long cousin-in-law was a journalist and is trying to get a job with the Philly Inquirer or some such rag. She catches all my grief. I'll certainly vent at her over this. : )
~~obvious sarcasm off~~
CNN claimed that they buried this kind of stuff so that Saddam wouldn't throw them out of Iraq. What's their excuse today?
I have a hunch that the Bush Adm. has something planned campaign wise. They always seem to and the F'n campaign always seems to backfire.
This Abu Ghraib thing can only have "positive" developments for the Dims for so long. At some point I believe that they are turning Americans off in spades as the American Public grows exceedingly weary of hearing this crap and how America is such a shiite hole implicitly, meaning them.
Besides, the media and the Kerry campaign are their own worst enemies.
"Fifth column lib/left/soc/com partisan press & fraudcast media" bump!
All I wanted for my birthday was a new bike - perhaps I've been setting my sights too low.
I no longer respect the mainstream media because of their clear bias. However, I take pride in saying Saddam acting inhumanely is not news, but U.S. soldiers acting poorly is. We live by a higher standard, and proudly so.
...what did they know and when did they know it?

There is a video out there of one of Saddam's soliders being pushed off a three story building as punishment. Where did that one go?
I have a feeling that this kind of thing will get a lot of exposure when Saddam gets tried. Any small random sample of his cruelty will be sure to provide "all the horrible that a normal person can stomach."
