Where the hell is the press photos? Let us see the kills!! May the WH stop tyring to micro-manage the news in order not to inflame Pakistanis and Saudis.

We are in a fight that we don't know we are winning.

Don't count on it. That would destroy the left/media's fiction that we're doing nothing over there now -- that we've basically given up on the place.

Slowly but surely, we are winnowing them out.
Whether the NY Times reports it or not.

start up a centcom press conference, we have to force coverage of the successes, hasn't the white house learned that?

You mean the WH never thought to ask the Pentagon to send in camera teams like they did in WW2? And then post the pictures on the web? White House dimwits.

What ever happened to the rumors last week that One-Eyed Omar was among the dead in this battle?

What makes you think that our media would print photos of dead Afghans? I never saw a single dead Iraqi during the whole war coverage. Not one.

I'm curious why you think the White House could start a successful propaganda effort with taking Pentagon photos.

One of the things I've wondered in Iraq is , Are we killing the bastards that take pot shots at us? All we hear is one soldier killed with RPG today. I can't believe that they get away each time. Maybe a couple of times, but always? Sometimes there are 15 soldiers at a checkpoint or something, nobody saw anything? I don't believe it. Somebody ought to be returning fire. You can bet they get some of them. I don't think they want dead Iraqi's on TV every night.

Statistically speaking and with a little common sense, the dumb bastards ought to know there are very few virgins in heaven, and those that are, are well ... virgins for good reason, for the most part.

We ought to be passing Rosie O'Doughnut's picture out liberally in Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, and Afganistan, to remind them of their probable endgame, and just reward.

Do you realize what happens when we release photo's of those we kill on the battlefield?

If you do. you would remember how the bleeding heart leftist can't handle this fact of war. It's bad enough that 99% of these media maggots purposely ignore all of the success stories coming out of Iraq as they wait with baited breathe for the opportunity to write a 10,000 word report about an American casualty.

I completely understand why we no longer confirm enemy casualties. The pro-communist leftist liberals had a field day back in the 60's with our daily casualty reports in Vietnam.
