I was reading this article by Col. North and this caught my eye:

For several hours afterward, I incorrectly believed that Griff Jenkins, my FOX News field producer and cameraman, had also been killed on the doomed bird.

Is this the same Griff that Tony Snow talks about? (I think I'm remembering right?)

I still back the war and I have nothing but contempt for the MSM's relentless negativism about our accomplishments in the Iraq theater. Our heroes need to be commemorated and far from being consumed by misplaced remorse, we need to remember why we went into Iraq in the first place three years ago.

Thank you Col. North...you are a great American.
(If you had left out the poll bs the article would have been perfect)

...the administration must make a concerted effort to let the American people see the bravest of the soldiers, sailors, airmen, Guardsmen and Marines who are fighting this war.

How is the administration supposed to do this?

This also marked the beginning of the upending of terror in the world, and reversal of decades of financial, diplomatic and logistical support to terror organizations desperately trying to acquire nuclear technology.

The world may condemn GW, and his conservative supporters may question him. But in the end, studious observers will find that he bought this civilization another 50 to 100 years of survival, in the face of nuclear terror anarchy
