C-span didn't show anyone's face, but it was a man.
RE: the good news...
the press......."No comment"
I'm pretty sure the reporter was from NewsMax and there's a thread going on the subject now (it's somewhere here, do a search to find it if you want).
There were NO ATROCITIES committed by Saddam against his own people. It's just your imagination. Those mens hands were not really cut off.
According to UNICEF, Saddam was a big supporter of family planning. He only killed 5,000 children a month to prevent families from planning.
Do you have a link? I'm an idiot about this thing.
Sheesh!
Un-f'ing-believable!
"These newspapers, owned and edited by these men, although free from the repulsive vulgarity of the yellow press, were susceptible to influence by the priviledged interests, and were almost or quite as hostile to manliness as they were to unrefined vice...they favored the removal of tariff on works of art; they favored all the proper (and even more strongly all the improper) movements for international peace and arbitration; in short, they favored all good, and many goody-goody, measures so long as they did not cut deep into social wrong or make demands on National and individual virility. They opposed, or were lukewarm about, efforts to build up the army and the navy, for they were not sensitive concerning National honor; and, above all, they opposed every non-milk-and-water effort, however sane, to change our social and economic system in such a fashion as to substitute the ideal justice towards all for the ideal of kindly charity from the favored few to the possibly grateful many."
- Theodore Roosevelt
I used to dislike our press, I'm coming to the point of recognizing that they are our enemies, and I'm not just talking here, I'm serious. They are as deadly to the future of this country as are Al Qaeda.
A man as literate as teddy Roosevelt could not get elected today. He would not be understood by 50% plus of the American population.
Funny thing is...the three soldiers were full of hope and determination about their futures and not against the war. The "investigation" was done over several months and I could actually see when the producers had to change their direction because of a positive or courageous comment from each of the men. They ended with a shot of one of them struggling up a staircase with his prosthetic legs...God bless him. CBS attempted to use these fine young men to make a statement and it backfired.
Who was this masked man?
Jeff, was that you asking those questions?
I pray everyday for "the destruction of the liberal American media."
If I can find it, I'll post the link.
And I was a tad wrong, it was posted yesterday.
