Amen. This story may end up making a lot of puffed-up press and pundits look silly - and wouldn't that be an awesome outcome! I call my local news outlets now when they parrot anti-American DNC BS war news, give 'em the DoD response and tell 'em basically, "son, just following orders from my NEWS Chief doesn't cut it during wartime when our troops are risking their lives for you."
Forwarding this thread to press, pols, radio hosts - and a blogger or two.
Re. war "news" (shameless plug):
Yeah, Japan Today got it from us. I guess they 'stole' it, too since they never asked permission. They got screwed by this cluster f*** the same way we did. We're running the CHB retraction tomorrow.

"Stole it, too?" Gotta love that.
