"It is so much easier to handle terrorists when you are not hobbled by PC-addled hand-wringers."
Can you image what World War II would have been like if CNN had been embedded with the troops landing on Omaha Beach?
We lost 1000 men and women in one year in Iraq...we lost that much in the first 60 minutes of the Normandy landings. 6000 in one day. Over 270,000 in the whole war. The MSM would have had a cow.
Every time I hear the media whine about a casualty, I think of that.
I doubt that most in this country could tolerate fighting a war like that again. many of us have become risk averse in war.
