Nightline last night was an abysmal hit piece on the Marines " failure " to protect the museum. They even edited Rumsfeld's light hearted comments to the press, last week about seeing the same video of one guy taking a vase and being shown over and over- to make it seem as if Rumsfeld was laughing about historic vases being taken. The vase that Rumsfeld was talking about was filled with plastic flowers and was being carted out of a palace. CBS news on the radio said it may not have been " the laxity of the Marines ", which caused the looting.
NO MARINE BLOOD FOR POTTERY !!!

And he kept warehouses of food while his people--children especially--went malnourished, sickened and died.

Leftist propaganda machine will use Big Lie to slander Bush et al for "failing to protect vases"--

But, no vase "ever fed a hungry child".

Saddam built palaces and bought weapons while his people--especially the children--suffered and died.

The leftist propaganda machine continues to ignore this, blaming sanctions and Bush instead of Saddam.

As for Nightline slandering Bush--that's why ABC is in fourth place and going down--Jennings, too.

Can't dodge that karma forever.
