That’s also why our soldiers have more contempt for MSM journalists and Democrat politicians than the Jihadi terrorists — for at least the terrorists are honest about being an enemy, instead of pretending they’re on your side while stabbing you in the back.

Today’s soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen are learning what we learned in Viet Nam long ago. From the looks of TV news show ratings and falling subscriptions for newspapers, a lot of people are learning.

Great post. Even the young soldiers and civilians recognize the enemy within. Sadly, stuck on stupid, is becoming the norm for the sniveling liberals and the majority of demorats.

Good afternoon.
"...our soldiers have more contempt for MSM journalists and Democrat politicians than the Jihadi terrorists"

Ah, just like in the good old days of our youth. Change the names of the armed enemy and everything else stays the same.

What this means is that Hitlery and the Dims will have to find a way to disenfranchise the military once again in order to win in '08.

I'd suggest that the MSM have been mortally wounded lately and hopefully that will make the difference in the outcome compared to VN in the 70s.

Then why don't more soldiers get more public about this? Especially ones whose tour of duty in Iraq is up. What are they going to do when you get home and call the media liars? Take your GI bill away? Let them try!

Nobody would have more influence in American culture than a young angry man calling the media a bunch of liars to their faces. They would have to cover it. As much as they would try to cover it up, they would have to cover it. It would be too newsworthy to ignore.

C'mon Joe, where are you? Get in their faces! Let them know!

Bump for a great read!

There's a special place in Hell for the members of the MSM and politicians and America-haters who undermine the efforts of our brave troops. It's gonna be filled wall-to-wall, too.

You can choose branch of military, country, then individual. I just found the site yesterday. I chose the Army then clicked on Afghanistan. Read Mike Glover's request. Besides snacks, etc., he asks for T-shirts and sweats for the guys they train. Even requests snacks and doggie toys for their security dogs. He includes pictures. Heartwarming.............

Good afternoon.

The Internet will almost certainly change the outcome this time.
The enemy doesn't have total control over information anymore.

There's a special corner of Hell reserved for al-Zarqawi too, let's just hope the rumors that he recently arrived prove to be true.

Is it true photos of Helen Thomas, Whoopi Goldberg, Nancy Pelosi, Cindy Sheehan and Michael Moore are hanging on the walls of Allah's Waiting Room?

They will continue to harp on American casualties and praising the enemy.

We should make everyone in Congress, including staffers read this:

"It is widely viewed that Zarqawi’s use of suicide bombers against the civilian population was a serious tactical mistake. Many Iraqis were galvanized and the caliber of recruits in the Army and the police forces went up, along with their motivation. It also led to an exponential increase in good intel because the Iraqis are sick of the insurgent attacks against civilians. The Kurds are solidly pro-American and fearless fighters.

Morale among our guys is very high. We not only believe we are winning, but that we are winning decisively.

Our guys are stunned and dismayed by what they see in the American press, whom they almost universally view as against them. The embedded reporters are despised and distrusted. We are inflicting casualties at a rate of 25-1 and then see garbage like “Are we losing in Iraq?” on TV and the print media."
