Just on CNN...Aaron Brown speaking with "embedded" reporter who was with a 101st Air Assualt unit that just identified an uncontacted Iraqi regiment for some reason asked (paraphrase)....Are the marines you are with aware there have been casualties....a couple of casualties....? Someone please tell me the importance and journalistic necessity of this question......In addition, albiet earlier in the "interview" ask if they are an AirBORN unit why are they driving across the dessert?

Was this after the guy said that he was having "fun" charging through the desert?

I didn't actually see it, but it was mentioned on another thread that the idea of anyone having fun seemed to upset the priggish Mr. Brown.

I drove across the dessert once, but my tire treads kept getting caught in the chocolate syrup.

Have you noticed how self-absorbed aaron Brown can be??? I just switch him off every time he says "I feel ... " he rarely lasts 4 minutes or more.

I go back again to see if the embedded reporters are reporting.

LOL!

If you quoted that right, he just called the 101st Airborne "Marines"? Oh, way to go, Aaron, you just pissed off the Screaming Eagles AND the Marines with that one...

Aaron Brown talks like a hair stylist.

Self Absorbed? This guy is so self absorbed that he soaks up the vinyl fibers off of the donated Bobby Bautista chair on which he sits....

[wildboar86ed]

To say the least....at this time I would normally ask how this gut could have a job but then I sober (briefly) and realize.....THIS IS CNN....

Paratroopers, like the 101st, only make combat jumps when there is no other way to get to the battlefield.

Why jump out of a perfectly good airplane when you can ride uninhibited?

[wildboar86ed]

Hey, don't argue with Aaron Brown...That'll get you the "smirk."

[goodnesswins]

"Aaron Brown talks like a hair stylist." ....LOL...YOU got THAT right....I cannot STAND HIM! What a wuss

[SMEDLEYBUTLER]

Brown can't help it. He's got a terminal case of cranial rectumitis. He was doing a Lewinsky on Wesley Clarks' bung hole all night.

Hope he stays there at CNNLIES...ratings have to be bad for them with him there...he will put a person to sleep.
