Besides the text of the article itself, and the fact that it currently the top story at CBSNews.com, note well:
- This was sent out as a breaking news alert by CBS News, even though it is obviously not breaking news:
From: "CBSNews---Breaking_News"
Date: Sat Mar 22, 2003 3:18:59 PM America/New_York
Subject: CBSNews.com Alert! Toughest Fighting Ahead?U.S. forces may soon face heaviest opposition yet on the southern approach to Baghdad guarded by Iraqi Republican Guards, troops most likely to fight hard and use chemical weapons, reports CBS News' David Martin.

Iraq's best ain't jack. We shouldn't get complacent, but I know we'll nail them. The Iraqi military wants to mess with the best and, to their detriment, they'll get their wish. They'll wind up wishing they'd stayed home.

The latest CBS News/New York Times poll shows Americans are feeling optimistic about the progress of the war in Iraq, but they believe President Bush hasn't been clear about all the possible consequences of military action.This is what drives me nuts about the media. Anyone with a functioning brain doesn't need the President to explain the 'consequences of war' to them.

E-Lights, won't last as long as the Alamo, I'd reckon.

call in the airstrikes ... Daisy Cutters if they refuse to surrender peacefully ... terrible to say but I'd rather save American and British soldiers ... guess they could drop a Daisy Cutter a mile or two away as a warning ...
there's no rush ... do it right ...

The chief difference between the division that surrendered yesterday and the Republican Guard is that the first consisted of Shiite conscripts who didn't want to fight in the first place and hate Saddam, whereas the Republican Guard troops are bullies who are complicit in Saddam's tyranny. But they won't fight effectively. Instead of surrendering, they are more likely to run, as they did in the first Gulf War.

Iraqi Republican Guards, troops most likely to fight hard and use chemical weapons CBS' Dan Rather got it straight from the Camel's Anus that Iraq has no chemical weapons.
Just to be safe, march Dan Rather on point as we approach Baghdad.
Per his reporting he should have nothing to fear.

Anyone with a functioning brain doesn't need the President to explain the 'consequences of war' to them.I'm not so sure. I think I've heard rumors that war might not be exactly like a video game.
I think I may have had that pointed out to me every fifteen seconds or so for ten friggin' years.
Still, unless the President tells us otherwise, me and all my friends are pretty sure it's exactly like a video game.

This is what drives me nuts about the media. I hear ya' but why do you listen to their dribble and take it to heart? I haven't experienced "network News" for years. I have surfed through it frequently and for a moment got disgusted with it and went back to FOX.
