Because they need to run SOMETHING between Bush-bashing stories.

A recruiter called for my son today. I know he's not really interested, and he's got to finish his studies first (sort of dropped out, but now he's working hard to get his degree from an alternative program).

But even so, I gave the recruiter my son's telephone number, because it would please me to no end if one of my boys would enlist.

Ah well. This is something some people couldn't understand, I believe.

The truth is .. because they're cowards and appeasers .. and they don't believe in using force .. unless it will give them power.

I suspect research would show that (a) they are trying to counter a victory for the administration and/or (b) it's election season and they're trying to pump up the Democrat side of the aisle.

Don't ever accuse the MSM of being objective and even-handed, they'd probably bite like a pit bull.

because Journalists think of themselves as life changing entities.. they become journalists to change the world. to them a press is more powerful than a fully trained army.. that is why their pompous arses think their view of the world is the best for us.. and the lowly citizens and those murderers in uniform don't know better. these are the first people to face the firing squads when their views have taken hold on the populace. these same people would not stand a chance in a dictatorship..

They wouldn't mind using force on us at all. It's when it comes to our nation's enemies that they turn squeamish.

Because our military is comprised of men these spineless whiners could never hope to be. Excuse the risque' reference but its kinda like a big d..k contest and the media loses.

Excellent analysis! The overwhelming majority of those MSM'ers have never served in the military, and probably don't know anyone who has.

"Perhaps that is why they do it, not to mention a desire to humiliate our military and cause the defeat of the U.S. They have become accessories to and instruments for death. "

Yes they have and that's why I detest them.

I cant remember who said it but I love the quote "If there ever ceases to be an America there will never be another America again." Its unfortunate that liberals don't care. Their goal is socialism and a so called living document Constitution that can be constantly formatted to fit that agenda.

Our soldiers don't fight for their version of our Constitution. They fight for a Constitution that includes God, Country and Freedom.

Many liberals hate the U.S., or at least think it needs to be "taken down a peg". The military tries to prevent that from happening.

Because most of the "liberal media" is made of up folks that are the dregs of society.....worthless POS who cry in the dark and whistle past the cemetery....

"Why Do Liberal Media Despise Our Troops?"

...because soldiers are respected by the rest of us for being physically strong and heroic while often being humble and easy-going. Contrast that to their fantasies from the movies: characters who are half-evil. You see, Lefty believes that one cannot be tough without being a vain bully. And Lefty doesn't want us to bust his/her bubble with nice, polite, self-disciplined, real heroes.

Once upon a time, I was a "weekend warrior." Because of my appearance, bearing (and having to leave work sometimes on Friday afternoons for MUTA-5s), a woman who worked beside me asked if I'd been in the service. After she found out, she started talking about how "mean," rough (and criminal) her older boyfriend was--"looks like Willy Nelson," "rides motorcycles," "has guns," and so on. She didn't let-up after that, but I never saw him, either. She was middle-aged, several times divorced, more than outspoken (domineering might be a good word), loved country music while hating our country, hated soldiers and generally hated men. Our Midwest is full of 'em.

...because they're a symbol of a strenght which they resent.
