You may recall how much I LOATHE the ENEMEDIA!!!

Well, I brought along some buddies who'd like to send their message to Alfred de Montesquiou-the reporter; and Julie Jacobson- the photographer, who are responsible for submitting the AP story and pictures...

Please excuse their salty language..., they've earned the right.

For those who are interested, AP email addresses are first initial lastname@ap.org

For example, John Smith would be jsmith@ap.org

Just sayin’ ...for those who might want to civily express their concerns with Tom Curley, the executive editor of the AP.

My standard question in times like these.

Do we hang the Journalists before or after we hang the Politicians?

Just asking.

LOL! You outdid yourself with this one, smooth.
I know more than a few of these guys and the words below this pic are not "salty" in their book! ;*)

Yep, wise. He was 19 when he posted that on a paintball forum.

“I think they should end the embedded journalists.... if they want to be “war zone photographers”, “neutral”, “telling the real story”, then let them experience the dangers and real story equally with all the other battlefield victims.”

I’ve only met one – Patrick O’Donnell, the author of “We Were One”, although he’s more of a military historian. He was with 3/1 Lima Company 1st Platoon at Fallujah. I could see the sadness in his eyes.

I saw the picture. All I can say is words fail me. God bless Lance Cpl. Joshua Bernard, his family and his brother Marines.

Not only that, I'd guess it's lucky for the photographer they were in a comparitively good mood that day. :-)

Good one, Smooth.
