FReepers,

Who can watch the "news" on TV anymore? Not me.
Why? Because Katrina is not news.
Attacks by the mainstream media against America
through their bitter, entrenched and borderline anchors are not news.
The real News is that America has freed millions of people since the 911 Atrocities (events which are never shown by
the mainstream media, which is busy DEFENDING terrorists or busy REVEALING American vulnerabilities
to their terrorist friends).


If you want the pictures, bag them now.

And no matter what, do something this week helping for success in the War for Enduring Freedom,
or/and post your analysis, correction, observation, and anything else which supports America.

Rock on, Dio. You wrapped that up spot on. The MSM will be the death of everything we built this country upon or will be the primary catalyst. Bastards.

After four of your return-threads, I must say that the past year of your absence gave the MSM free reign over the images from Iraq. Before you left, I would see your pictures on FNC and elsewhere. I hope that now that you're back, your pictures can once again balance out the images that the MSM is burning into peoples' memories.

I would love to meet an Uzbeki woman, just to see if she is keeping up with the latest Hollywood nut-job romance.

They will be the death, not just the catalyst. Ye gads, calling for censure or impeachment. Who is doing that within political circles? Maybe a few but if you listen to the MSM every last one in congress is.

Worth repeating one more time! "News" is propaganda now.

I recognize part of this picture.

Didn't that same yellow brick frame used to have a picture of Saddam in it?

Wasn't that picture torn down during liberation?
