Did anyone listen to CNN radio news at the top of the last hour? The lady reporter said that Blacks were not joining the military and the number was down to 35000 enlistees. Then she said it was because of the Iraqi war that has killed(now get this) 35 THOUSAND TROOPS!
But let's stifle the Internet via the fairness doctrine so the MSM doesn't get caught.
I didn't even know they had radio.
Why bother, here in Minnesota we have Jason Lewis on KTLK to listen to! : - )
Gosh, the little things bother you don't they./snicker
It was about the same in Cancun many years ago. CNN had the only channel in English.
18 times the speed of light?
I thought warp drive technology didnt come till 2062 with zephram cochran?
Well it sounds like someone here, ought to be listening.
The actual number of troops killed is around 3500 so instead of saying 35 hundred the reader said thousand. A mere order of magnitude off.
Most likely the lady said 35000 casualities which is an entirely different issue and the total number is around that.
Whatever they say is irrelevant...the whole story is a big “So What”. Who the frick cares about what these hippies that hate America say. We all know they lie and spin to meet their sick goals. They have proven that they will trash anything that represents the good of this country and are not worth the time to listen to just like the wacked out hippie druggies you knew in college.
True, however I never knew any "hippie druggies" personally.
I trust that I haven't missed much in life.
I don't buy the reason or facts given.
There are still blacks in the Marines. Just not as many recruits as when I was in (12-14%).
A Rio Linda school dropout no doubt./sarc
A mere order of magnitude off.

Oh, you’re so picky! What’s a little zero between friends? The reporterette is probably cute, so who cares? I’ll bet you don’t approve of that “speed of light” mistake either.
Democrat misstatements don’t get much MSM coverage & are quickly forgotton.
Barack Obama made a major flub in commenting on Greenburg Kansas tornado disaster. Here is a link to the story along with an excerpt.
Obama Overstates Kansas Tornado Deaths
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=d8p0jnr82&show_article=1
Excerpt:
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Barack Obama, caught up in the fervor of a campaign speech Tuesday, drastically overstated the Kansas tornadoes death toll, saying 10,000 had died. The death toll was 12.
Here is a guy who the Liberals are exalting as a fresh, astute, & brilliant presidential candidate. The Liberal media has quietly forgot this. Imagine the news coverage if a conservative Republican has made a flub like this.
I didn’t cause I don’t watch CNN. Why on earth would you??? If you want to hear the truth...stay away from ALL the TV shows and listen instead to Rush Limbaugh. THERE is where you will get the truth backed my FACTS. Why on earth do you think they are trying to shut down talk radio??????
Oh I do approve....it gives me a chuckle everytime I see it. I also like the map that mislabels the countries in Europe too. :)
Everytime I hear the left throw around grossly exaggerated numbers to push their agenda, I think of the 1980’s when they were claiming that there were “millions” of homeless in America.
Then, someone did an accurate study and found that the actual number of homeless throughout the nation was somewhere, I think, around 200,000 or less.
Facts to a liberal are like kryptonite to Superman.
I have never heard of CNN radio...lucky me.
My internet is always tuned to my home station from Memphis, or WABC out of NYC.
Speak for yourself I watch it when they are carrying something oterhers are not covering. And I will admit it. I am talking something happening live
Are they still on the air?
