Isn't it funny that after CBS's bogus memo fiasco, the blatantly false Koran flushing story. Which sparked deadly riots. Isn't it funny how when one drive-by outlet pushes a story everyone else just runs with it. The liberal major media in our country (not theirs)hates the military and has no conscience when it comes to telling lies about the boys and girls in uniform.
The continuing shame of CNN.
NBC News in New York today at 5pm, Sue Simmons reported that President Bush mentioned today his concern for the "Massacre" in Haditha; then they play the clip of Bush making his comments and maybe I am deaf, but I didn't hear him say the word "Massacre" at all...ramp it up MSM, have your fun.
If they tell a lie over, and over, again...they hope others believe.
The MSM, CNN being the cheif culprit, are unwilling to state the facts and rational behind the war on terror, let alone how Iraq factos in on that...because the facts dont serve their agenda, and CNN has no problem with being irresponsible.
I am so, very, tired of those cretins.
MSM = WMD
So where are all the reporters delaring William Jefferson GUILTY AS CHARGED?
For the press, every war is Vietnam. There are no other conflicts in American history.
This story is unpleasant for all of us. But violent fantasies against the press may not be the best response.
Well, it doesnt appear diplomacy is working...so...the citzenry has a right to go all "1776" on them? Can you recall what the revolutionary colonists did too the loyalist press? (hint-they didnt sue them)
BTW, I wonder if there are any class action lawsuits pending against CNN for their distortions of the truth...linking them to enabling enemies of the republic. I realize that might open Pandora's box in regard to FREE SPEECH, FREE PRESS, but they have been so flagrantly over board in the last several years, that something surely can be done against them legally.
I for one am damn tired of hearing all of the media including Bill Orealy start out the argument with the ever popular " well if they're guilty, they must be tried and convicted.
This is complete BS!!! I am one American who believes in our troops and if they kill 19 or 50 or 500 in a battle and it saved ONE American kid's life......then it was damn well worth it. About time, Americans said Screw the rest of the World, our troops are fighting for us and the hell with everyone else.
We're just joking around. :P
It's like when Red Foreman carrys on about kicking people ***es. He never actually does it, and neither will we. :)
Oh, I see the unerring media have already convicted the entire unit without trifling over niggling matters like facts or investigations. If it was any institution but the NEWS MEDIA, you'd almost think it was unAmerican and unfair. But since the media have never been known to report anything incorrectly, or to reach specious, unfounded, and laughably invalid conclusions, we'd better commission a firing squad pronto.
Worth repeating. Some people will find a way to hate you no matter what you do.
Keep in mind that the charges are based on this, and the testimony of a 9 year old girl. She stated that one of the "civilians," here father was in his room reading the koran during the firefight. This story, like most accounts related by our press come from the enemy. Keep in mind that when terrorists get shot, the instant their body hits the dirt they become devout civilians. The bodies are removed quickly, or disarmed by their companions. Note also that terrorists kill indiscriminately, without remorse.
There is nothing in this story but rumors.
Not at all. Just like the second amendment doesn't protect any right to shoot people, the first does not protect libel or slander. Although one does have the right, infringed in many states, to shoot people in self defense, defense of others, and to protect property.
Of course I'll bet they've been careful not to name individuals, so a class action would be the only way this could be done. Should they wrongly accuse individuals by name, their lawyers will be busy for decades. CNN-Time Warner may not have enough money to pay the judgments against an entire company of Marines. Let's hope not at least.
That's what King George and Governor/General Gage thought too.
While you are likely correct, I wouldn't be completely sure about it.
Those are for stomping, not kicking. Of course you could mount a set on your steel toed boots, and stomp on 'em after you kick 'em.
