The most eye opening experience in Iraq for me was not the horror of war. It was no disappointment in my fellow soldier. It was not even a US public that fully stood behind us. No, it was a media that in search of a story was looking for failure and conflict even if it meant literally staging a picture, taking things out of context etc. The media in our nation is out of control. Its no longer news which we have. Its editorial packaged as news. Its complete garbage which lacks often even factual correctness when youre talking about places like Iraq where they dont really have access or free movement.
I noticed this about 15 years ago during l'affair Rodney King. The local news media edited out parts of the video tape to make the cops look really bad. Then they played this bastardized clip over and over and over again, until they got the result they wanted, a full-blown insurrection in LA.
You notice today this low-life bunch piously declare that they won't show the 9-ll footage because they don't want to "inflame" the public. That sure did not stop them from showing the RK footage at least a dozen times a day. After the riots, they quit showing the footage entirely, they got their riot and a whole other news cycle. I realized then the MSM were nothing but filthy, manipulating whores, and their "come on" would no longer work for me.

A chihuahua is not in a separate genus from a Great Dane, they are both canis domesticus, therefore, they are the same species.
