That's why we have to be so careful -- the liberal vultures are scanning every posted word and see how they can take it out of context to hurt and even shut down conservative forums, and I am sure FR is right on top of their list.

Why shouldn't Sites have to look over his shoulder when he walks the streets of NY just like one of OUR Marines has to when he walks the streets of Fallujah? Especially when reporters like Sites has his six. Fair is fair.
I Don't think Sites ever read any Ernie Pyle or even knows who he was.

Media Schadenfreude and Media Shenanigans PING

They know that there are far worse things being said on DU about hoping for our troops to be killed in Fallujah.

This smacks of hypocrisy and has their ass hanging out as much as when Axis Sally chided Americans by saying "You don't say 'my country right or wrong'" when she chastized America in WWII while living in Nazi Germany.

Sure we are on top of their list, First Amendment, and all that nonwithstanding, just like all the other 'rights' they crow about, it is for them not us.

The backlash against the journalist is understandable, given the fact that had circumstances been just one little grenade different, the Marine would have saved the journalist's life. The Marine's actions seem prudent, the journalist patently ungrateful.

IMO the MSM has done all they can to demoralize our troops and our people. If they want to be a propaganda organ for the enemy, we should embed them with the other side and let them take their chances under fire with the terrorists, not second-guess our troops while they are protecting their sorry asses.

Just my $0.02.

Yeah right. The press can make it up if they want. Who is going to blow the whistle on them?
