that should be "in front of a TV camera." We have become a nation that behaves like its made up of spoiled 7 year olds.

" What I do not understand, she said her husband had to "live on the street", while visiting his mother??? "

She said his mom lived 5 minutes from the airport. I'd venture to say the house either isn't standing anymore or they were afraid of a short round taking them out.

But I seriously doubt they were on the street since she was talking as if they were communicating

I guess they think it's easy to organize a mass evacuation from a war zone. Idiot.

Anyone watching CNN? They're interviewing a 16 year old kid who just got back. What was he doing over there by himself? Anyone know the story?

Unfortunately we have a surplus of cameras to give them such a platform.

And they will certainly be afforded that platform ALL DAY LONG! We are going to hear this all day. All I want to hear is one person say thank you and how great it is to be back in the greatest country on earth. But I guess the MSM would cut away from the first person that began to say something like that. There HAS to be some people that are truly grateful for being evacuated.

It's the ungratefulness that really ticks me off.

Wow. How this nation has changed. I remember back in the 80's when the students evacuated from Grenada got off the plane and kissed the ground!

Maybe we should have told him to ask Syria or Iran to evacuate him.

Personally, I think that guy should be put on the terorist watch list. What a jerk. Hezbollah sympathizer, no doubt about it.

There are but the story is better for the MSM if people are bitching about the evacuation. A better story always trumps the truth.

The wife had a theme: America is bad. Steve, ED & Brian kept pressing her on her statements...she mentioned her husband had to "live on the street" (even though he was there visiting his mother) ...ED..said ..I don't understand- why would he be on the street if he's staying with his mother...LOL The woman hemmed and hawed..changed the subject.

This really reminds me of Katrina discussions.

He just ensured his 15 minutes of fame on all the major "news" alphabets; referring to the President as "George Bush" and stating america was complicit in the "attack". Disgraceful, ungrateful human being. Oh well, expect a lot more of this. Noone who is grateful will get any airtime. I bet Lou Dobbs interviews him tonight and spews hatred for america for an hour or so. Argh!

I thought the same. Here we go again, like Katrina. The BIG difference is that these spoiled brats (not to stereotype all of them) can afford to travel internationally.
