Some background: In a collection of hundreds of so-far-unreleased photographs and short digital videos obtained by The Washington Post, U.S. soldiers are shown physically and emotionally abusing detainees last fall in the Abu Ghraib prison on the outskirts of Baghdad.

"I think this is a wonderful distraction by YOU, THE MEDIA, and it's taking away from the REAL issue, which is the war. Love the fact that you people are making such a case about this, that it just provides more and more fodder for the enemy. Frankly, I think the entire left-leaning MEDIA system in this country should be brought up on charges of treason. You all are doing nothing but supporting the enemy in a TIME OF WAR!!! Do you get that yet?? it's WAR. Here's one for you...the public has a 'RIGHT' TO KNOW, correct??? then WHY do they not have a right TO KNOW ABOUT THE VIDEO ABOUT Berg???? Can you explain that? Yeah, that's what I thought. "The public shouldn't be subjected to that kind of violence"..BUT we CAN be subjected to OUR soldiers and their misdeeds??? YOU people make me sick.
Good job. But wasted on these idiots. The Modern Media would have been on trial for treason during WWII.
A: A dog eventually gets tired of rolling in ****.
The dog has much more sense as well.
STOP WATCHING AND THEY DIE,DUDE. THEY HAVE THE LOWEST RATINGS IN THE UNIVERSE.
Yes 68%
No 32%
I guess DU hasn't gotten to it yet...
Good response. We also need to tell them that we've heard enough about Watergate but are still waiting for them to cover Whitewater, Monica, Tyson Foods, Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey, Jennifer Flowers, Vince Foster, Rose Law Firm, cattle futures...
shhhhhh!
I voted and sent the following message:
"Your hypocrisy know NO bounds. Mainstream media should be brought up on charges of treason, aid and abetting the enemy. Our nation is in a state of war, but you think nothing of America-bashing while saying nothing about the cruel and inhuman death suffered by American Nick Berg. Plus, the fact that the media accuses the current Administration (echoing sentiments from the political leftists) of every conceivable disingenuousness when pictures of 911 are shown, but the media thinks nothing of treating the general public to pictures of a situation that was already under investigation. This not only subjected the authorities to ridicule but endangering the investigation while creating an environment of disrespect and tension and succoring the enemy, disregarding the fact that many of these inmates would love to disembowel or decapitate any coalition member if the opportunity arose. Your hidden political agenda is very transparent and many Americans are wise to your ploys."
That was a wonderful response!!
Kudos!
