[HamiltonJay]

Where do they get young men like this?"

From these United States of America.

[xJones]

BUMP!

From America.

This has been a hard post to read. I don't get caught off guard emotionally very much, congrats to you, I'm all frazzled now.

I'm bookmarking this thread.

Band of Brothers BUMP!

Embedding the reporters was a brilliant move, not so much because the American people get a more realistic ground-level view of the war, but more so because these elite liberal reporters finally get a more realistic view of the American people.

Awesome...

[JoeSixPack1]

Goose bumps have I. This is America's finest.

Semper Fi, Marines from this old jarhead!

At that Martin Savidge totally broke down and was unable to speak. All he could get out before signing off was, "Where do they get young men like this?"

They're grown in America planted in the soil of freedom and nurtured with the love of God and family.

You know, a journalist can really make a reputation during time of war. They can rise up the totem pole and become forces to be reckeoned with in their field. I think we may be seeing a generation of journalists come back from Iraq and get "embedded" in their old newsroom and start to take editors to the wall: "No sir, you DON'T understand! Patriotism means something! I was with the marines in Iraq, and I saw how America really is! I will NOT slant my news story in favor of your slimy politician-friend!"

One can hope.

"Where do they get young men like this?"

Flyover country.

Agreed! I had the distinct displeasure of watching about 30 minutes of CNN while at the gym the other day. After about 10 minutes, I was ready to rip the TV off the wall and toss it out the window. Their decidedly anti-military stance is a close second to Al Jazeera.

They gloss over the pro military rallies occuring all over the country, then take about 3 minutes of airtime to interview some coward anti-war protestor in NYC. For balance, they then spend about the same amount of time interviewing a 9 year old girl at Camp Pendleton, CA asking questions like, "How do you feel when you see Marines being killed?" and "Do you worry about your father??" while this girl is crying and obviously distraught.

Maria Jinojosa's comments drip with anti-military angst when she's "forced" to cover anything positive about them. Wolf Blitzer is about as good as a cigar store Indian when it comes to his reporting, and this is from a guy who used to write for a pro-Israeli journal. And as for the morons they have in the "control room" who sit around and theorize drastic "what if" scenarios all day long with retired generals and colonels, I'd rather listen to fingernails on chalkboards than that crap.

Compare these sefless heroes to the parastical appeasement 'activists'.

[amused]

It makes you beam with pride.

God Bless them all.

Tearing up over this.

Mr. Savage, they get them from the nation your network trashes at every opportunity. The values they hold are the values slandered adnausium. Makes you proud doesn't it?
