That's easy, if they're not from FOX they're Clymers.

God forbid a proud black man should show some pride without the race-card left wing calling him out.

Another thing......the ABC reporter that was referred to was non other then that clintoon-lover George Stephanopolous.
Made me sick to hear those reporters clap for this jerk....they oughta all go home if they don't like or respect Gen. Brooks.

I heard the exchange between the General and Wolff this morning and I thought the same thing as Rush. Why wasn't a Brig. General good enough for this idiot? The only reason I could come up with was he didn't feel the black guy was up to his standards.

Wolff should be briefed by Beetle Bailey and General Brooks should take him out back for an attitude adjustment.

I had thought exactly the same thing before Rush put his voice to it.
I agree: If this were a Democrat administration, and Gen. Brooks were in Kosovo doing this, heads would roll.

I mean no disrespect by this question, but I want to ask about the value proposition of these briefings.
I spent some time amongst the dot com crowd, and I can tell you that 'value proposition' is consultant speak
The purpose of 'consultant speak' is to lead the other person to believe that you are more knowledgeable than them, to intimidate with language that has no meaning, and ultimately to bamboozle them out of something valuable.
Know this: if you ever encounter someone identified as a consultant, particularly if they mention 'the Big Five' or McKinsey**, or PWC, put your hand on your wallet, turn heel and RUN!

Brooks is a sharp guy. He was commandant of cadets at West Point a couple of years ago.
To: Libloather
I emailed the guy and showed off my new favorite word "gobsmacked" (an informal British term for "utterly astonished - as in the BBC embedded reporter was gobsmacked by the BBC distorting the facts of the war)
I wrote Wolff telling him I was gobsmacked by his racial bias. What a weasel.
To: Libloather
My husband met Brigadier General Brooks when he was a sophmore in High School. At that time, Brooks was the top cadet at West Point and he came to a dinner sponsored by the ROTC! Brigadier General Brooks brother graduated a year earlier as the second top cadet at West Point.
His father was also a graduate of West Point back in the fifty's....before the civil rights protests. I can't even imagine what his father must have gone through being an African American West Point cadet.

The press is showing it's slip again. Besides being an obvious leader, General Brooks is very, very handsome. I hope they bring him on everyday.

Personally, I would have sent the janitor out, and it's still more than they deserve.

General Brooks is absolute class. I recall a scene in Lonesome Dove where a bartender failed to show proper respect for the former Texas Rangers. The barkeep got the butt end of a pistol upside his head which was then slammed into the bar. I know General Brooks has too much class to react in such manner, but God, I'd love to see it just once.

I was hoping somebody would point this out.
When Chief Moose was criticized, it was racism all day and all night.
A man who actually has a sterling career, attacked by an elitist, and yet it is so quiet.
To: Libloather
The spoiled soft palmed reporters should be honored to sit before battle hardened men of great character and valorous endurance.
Brave men who have fought, will fight to their last dying breath to protect and defend their Freedom.
Instead, the majority of these pampered sneering reporters spew utterly stupid meaningless questions purely for some perverted satisfaction that only they can appreciate.
And, how the left claims bragging rights to how much more sensitive and accepting they are to minorities.
How I'd love to see one of these clymers get clymed with a five-star boot!

Michael Wolff writes a media column for New York magazine,which is a combination city guide( restaurant reviews,Broadway show reviews,The Best bagel in NYC,etc),insider, liberal slanted,magazine.Occasionally, there are some amusing and entertaining articles-but, most of the articles are fluff.Michael Wolff is a lesser Howard Kurtz.I wish FR had a correspondent among the pool.

Here's the actual exchange between Michael Wolff and Gen. Brooks
TRANSCRIPT OF 3/27 CENTCOM BRIEFING - BROOKS
[snip]
Q I'm Michael Wolf (sp) from New York Magazine. I mean no disrespect by this question, but I want to ask about the valued proposition of these briefings. We're no longer being briefed by senior-most officers. To the extent that we get information, it's largely information already released by the Pentagon. You may know that ABC has sent its senior correspondent home.
So I guess my question is, why should we stay? What's the value to us for what we learn at this million-dollar press center? (Applause.) (Ed.: Michaels' fellow jouralists are clapping his seemingly witty anti-military comment)
GEN. BROOKS: I've gotten applause already. That's wonderful. I appreciate that.
First, I would say it's your choice. We want to provide information that's truthful from the operational headquarters that is running this war. There are a number of places where information is available, not the least of which would be the embedded media. And they tell a very important story. The Pentagon has a set of information they provide as well. If you're looking for the entire mosaic, then you should be here.
I think some of you may have been, based on the questions yesterday, looking for very, very precise information about the operations. And we'll give you that as we can. But we should never forget, the more we tell you, if we're precise about the frontline trace and where units are operating, exactly what our strength is, you're not the only one being informed. And that's the most important (business ?)

This gives me a great idea.
We should compile each day's stupid questions and post what we would answer...
That would be a great way to start the day.
Anyone else notice that these mental midgets can't even follow simple instructions?
