WOW! Great post! I listen every morning to NPR (the only talk radio available on my way to school) and you'd think we're getting our behinds kicked around if that's all you every heard. Thanks for posting all this, it's very eye opening.

You are welcome. Unlike Vietnam, we have people on our side on the ground in Iraq with laptop computers - and daily briefings on the net from the DoD and military news sources, shared e-mail from friends and family serving. The power of the mainstream media to intentionally undermine a war and a President for partisan sake is eye-opening - and scandalous.

The first two links - the CENTCOM security and humanitarian logs - list the daily, detailed good works of the troops. The briefings from CENTCOM and DoD usually debunk most of the week's previous press stories...and reassure the country that we have adults of awesome character running the war.
