This hatred of and contempt for the military is why I can not stomach these people.

As to the "1984" accusation, this is a common tactic used by totalitarian governments that can control their people's access to information. (Think Soviet Union or China.) It absolutely will not work in a free society in which the common people have open access to the news as we do. I will grant that much of the so-called news is propaganda, but it is not controlled by the government and thus does not work as in "1984."

Right.This article proves we are free to write anything.

It reminds me of Tim Robbins complaining about lack of freedom to speak,being muzzled, while giving a speech to the National Press Club .I was watching it on CSPAN.I really took him seriously.
