Geraldo just interviewed Col. David Hunt and allowed him to allege that the al-QaQaa explosives are now killing our servicemen!*&!
Perhaps this segment was pre-recorded, but then FOXNews needs to make an announcement and not broadcast the word "Live" in the corner.
Not watching, but I don't think Col Hunt would ever say that. He is one of the staunchest backers of our troops and the President. Geraldo, on the other hand, drew the map in the sand of our troops assault on Bagdad. I.m sure he was just showing us where Capone was.
actually, Geraldo himself said in his opening statement that what he saw when he was embedded, was alot of attention to these ammo dumps by the troops. Then, Geraldo went into a segment with Jonathan Hunt, chasing El Baredi down a street in Manhattan asking him if he released this report this week to damage Bush politically. El Baredi gave some evasive answers - then Jonathan Hunt said El Baredi ran off, and called Colin Powell to complain about the questions!
Geraldo is a tremendous supporter of US troops in both Afghanistan and Iraq.
Whorealso is right now going up against CNN who has RuPaul Rocks The Vote on right now.
I saw it and he said it. He also said that the planning for the peace has been poor and they need many more troops and personnel in Iraq.
I will give the Col. a pass until I see the exact context and exchange between the two.
There are SO MANY enough munitions STILL in Iraq, unaccounted for, to keep the locals well supplied for years. We need to wipe Falluja off the map.
Sort it out later.
several people here heard him. He said it.
Trust me, Col Hunt was not nice.
yes, Col Hunt said that also.
I'm not watching , so this is a guess: Maybe he meant that some of the munitions that were taken out of Al QuaQa before the invasion were now being used against the coalition forces. That would make more sense. Anybody?
David Hunt is from Massachusetts. Nobody from Mass. should be allowed to be int he military.
The poster is very new. He could be lying, we need more than just his word.
No. He said there were many more weapons/explosives that are missing and are being used again the troops. He said it was because of poor planning.
Does Col. Hunt have an email address?
Fallujah will be a black hole after next weekend. Trust me.
Un-freking-believable. Co Hunt has been one of my heroes throughout. I wish he hadn't said it. But, the lib Geraldo, will say anything against Bush. That's the way I see it. Thanks for the slap to get me back to reality!
If he said it, he should take it up with active commanders in the military, not President Bush! For him to be as politically naive as others are suggesting, means he should slow down, listen to himself, and realize he needs a break. When I hear stuff like this, I think even the best intentioned conservatives get an ego complex.
I also heard Col. Hunt say that...my head whipped around in shock..had no idea he was such a rat.
