Why are the bad guys called "tenacious"? Why does the press give those losers the cool adjectives? Why aren't our guys called "tenacious"?

Typical MSM defeatist BS is all...
Casualties are always 'mounting' instead of 'dribbling',
the enemy is 'tenacious' but our troops are 'stressed' or 'beleaguered' ... these are throwaway adjectives that only expose their bias and dont really carry information except for the viewpoint of the speaker ..
Here's a Freeper rewrite:
"Tenacious, brave, professional Marines kicked butt in al-Anbar today, capturing over 100 fanatical, mindlessly violent terrorists in the doomed and pathetic insurgency.
As usual, the U.S. military gave a lot worse than they got, killing scores of the enemy while taking a mere two casualties, both due to a single roadside bomb. Cowardly insurgents are doing most of their killing via roadside bombs, but are no match for the insurmountable firepower and resolve of American soldiers and Marines in open battle."

Truely I doubt I have to tell you, but just in case. Because the L/MSM are not only composed mostly of no nuts assholes, and mostly well trained far left liberals idiots who are instructed to learn how to "change the world", instead of being trained to learn good reporting techniques and become well educated on many areas of lifes endevours. Many of them do not even know you don't reference a Marine as a solder. Our Army has soldiers. Our Marines have Marines. They are mostly ignorant on all issues they supposedly cover. And obviouse in the past few months some major news groups even admit they are certainly biased. So how can you expect any of them to phrase a sentence perhaps as follows:
Today our brave Marines while conducting a coordinated ground/air assualt on known foreign terrorist safe houses, routed, captured and killed 90 percent of the terrorist. It had been observed that the remaining 10 percent somehow where able to sneak away as the light levels diminished.
The above would not be within the make up of a reporter. What little grey matter they supposedly have has been trained to only report in a writing style that will make enemies of the United States the good and power good guys, and use adjectives whenever possible to make the American military personel look like idiots, or confused, or cowards, that will kill innocents. After all the most honorable US senator from Illinois has made it clear, they are no different then the Russian or the Nazis.
