Weekend reporters in the summer. And its not even them. Its the dopes who are ripping the info from AP and putting it on the teleprompter.
The media just sucks.
He flew Chinooks 40 years ago over Nam. He flatly stated that these helicopters were "sitting ducks", they were used to haul freight and such during Nam....and they would NEVER be sent on a combat mission except in emergency.
Folks, people are flooding the radio talk shows today. Grown men callers are breaking down and crying right on the air. Many are just shouting with angry passion.
Conservative former congressman J D Hayworth (R.AZ) is the host. He's darn near crying himself. His voice is somber...and he's now decrying the lack of info coming out on this tragedy because the loved ones are in prolonged states of fear and panic.
Oh, my.....this is all so wrong. I'm heartbroken. A close family member of mine was in Special Forces which brings it closer emotionally.
All the callers are saying the same thing, if we're fighting with one arm behind our backs....and our brave military are being used as "social nation-builders" instead of brutal fighters fighting a brutal war TO WIN....then bring them home!
