If it is such common knowledge that the Islamists are smart enough to wage war through our own media, when are we going to take that away from them? The left elite and those in the media believe they are immune from that which they "report" on if they "stroke" the enemy...

I have suggested in the past that the Bush administration make a public announcement that they are implementing the media and information policies of the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration used during World War II. How would the leftist/subversive media be able to counter that?

The problem with that is, it's not 1943 it's 2005. In WWII there were a limited number of news outlets, today(?) there are an almost unlimited number.
Also in WWII we had an offical declaration of war, today we don't.


I don't necessarily disagree, just pointing out the problems.
