family of publications catering to the military will publish an editorial calling for the defense secretary's removal.

Who cares what the magazine writers think? It's not their job to decide. Sheesh. This nation is just full of left wing kooks these days.

This is pretty weird. (Actually, maybe not. This is the Associated Press we're talking about). Nowhere in the article is it pointed out that Gannett owns these papers and is responsible for their editorial policy. I have to believe that this is a bad faith omission - a kind of lying by omission.

On an earlier thread the Gannett material had to be removed.

I would like to apologize.

It seems I copied and pasted the wrong headline.

You can view the new headline here.

I see a backlash developing here. Don't be surprised if you see the soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen start boycotting these rags and demanding that the be removed from the PXs and BXs.

Freaking CBS News led their hourly radio liefest off with this earlier today. I almost tossed my radio through the window.

Don't think for a moment that Rumsfeld is truly popular in the military with people who know what's going on.

No doubt about it he's a likable guy and all the troops appreciate his public support, but that doesn't mean that his policies or tactics are appreciated within the military itself.

Rumsfeld has tried to fight this war on the cheap instead of really going in and getting it done right. The politics have hampered the military's ability to do its job right and that starts at the highest levels.

Now do I think that the Dems have anyone at all who could do better?

No.

But does that mean that Rumsfeld is right and infallible?

Not a chance.

Gannett owns those so called military papers as well as USA Today. It is practically as left wing as the New York Times.

Do these assholes think the readers will fail to notice the proximity of these editorials with the mid term elections?
