Our troops give so much of themselves, and we all benefit from their efforts. The next time you look at your bank balance, why not find some way to take some money and put it towards supporting the members of our armed services in some way? Maybe find a family who has someone serving, and buy them dinner, or some groceries, or a gift for their children? Maybe find a way to contribute to a fund for the memory of any of those who have fallen? Our armed forces deserve our support in tangible ways.

I am sure that the NYT is run by good, kind, compassionate left-wingers. People on the Left would never rule through fear and humiliation ... would they???

It doesn't even mention what was probably the most notable hatchet job: when Abe Rosenthal complained about Maureen Dowd's horrible Op Ed pieces, and Raines fired Rosenthal, who had formerly held the chief editor job himself.
Sources have publicly said that Dowd and Raines had an affair when he first joined the Times, which may or may not explain his continuing support of this sorry excuse for a writer.

Raines can get away with it. He has publisher, Pinch Sulzberger, mesmerized by his zipper.

No Pulitzer Prize for the Augusta National series of stories?! I'm amazed! I mean, it was absolutely the biggest story of 2001/2002, and
The New York Times was clearly leading the charge. This sort of intrepid reporting on
the major issue of the day usually results in a Pulitzer Prize.
I don't know what those judges were thinking. It's not like there has been a lot of other news in the last year-and-a-half.

I cannot for the life of me understand why the Air Force did not target this enemy encampment on D-Day night at the same time they hit the bunker.

That's right! Send in the Marines! They can liberate anybody from everything, faster than Janet Reno liberated the children of The Branch Davidian compound!

the old timers who lived through the worst of [former executive editor] Abe Rosenthal say they have never seen anyone be so arrogant, so petty, so mean. Vindictiveness is in." Are they discussing the New York Times or the offices of Senator Hillary Clinton (D-Nurenberg)?
