Oh yeah, the media mob grows testy! With a republican in the White House, particularly GW, it's predictable, and not ever going to be pretty. But this time out, the media's anti-Bush attitude, quite possibly, is affecting military outcome because it's coupled with the relentless pounding of repetitive news. Think about it...

A bad news story gets pounded into our ears over and over and over. Besides depressing us, it's fuel for the anti-war, anti-Bush, anti-America protestors. (News cycles...remember news cycles? Evidently there is no such thing in war. One bad news story will get reported as fresh news until an even worse bad news story occurs.)

That's why the almost hourly polls on Bush popularity are taking place, checking to see if the hyped bad news is taking it's expected toll.

I just heard on CNN that Cheney's old company, Haliburton, will not get the contract for rebuilding Iraq's oil industry. The reason? They didn't turn in a bid.
Another media example for us to watch. For weeks, months even, the anti-Bush crowd has accused him of wanting this war to enrich his Haliburton cronies. Let's see how often, or if at all, we hear that lie from the left, simply never was true.

Bull's-eye, my friend.
