Apparently the same people along with PGA player Frank Lickliter were scheduled to go again to Iraq 2/1/08, but I haven’t seen Feherty’s article about this visit yet. He might not have gone because he was hit by a car while riding his bike and only returned to announce this week because it was the Masters.

How many years have we been in Iraq? How many news stories have we seen in the big media that are optimistic about the war??

God forbid the media does something that might seem the slightest bit patriotic, it’s not like they would want to take sides. Young Americans in the military against suicidal, maniacal, religious fanatics, somehow the media sees this as a battle between equals or that WE’RE the bad guys.

No way we stay and win WWII with the current media.
