Afraid is a very mild word. They are terrified and losing sleep over it. They are traitors who are working with the terrorists to defeat the USA, however we are going to win this war despite the traitors and defeatists among us, indeed we are winning this war.

From the Baltimore Sun (If you can stomach this leftest crap)....

...”Yesterday a federal jury in Miami found Mr. Padilla guilty. That’s hardly a vindication of the administration. For one thing, no acts of violence or terror were linked to the man who was once said by President Bush to pose a “continuing, present and grave danger” to national security.

Jose Padilla was a petty criminal who found Islam in an American prison and thought that in jihad he could amount to something. He didn’t: One government intelligence report suggests that the idea of a dirty bomb was a ruse to allow him to get away from the al-Qaida camp where he was staying. He’s pathetic, actually. Yet because of someone like this, the Bush administration was willing to junk the Constitution and redefine the legal system as it saw fit. That’s the real crime”....

A good question to ask would have been how much the MSM is trusted to report the truth.

“anyone associated with the Bush administration may be a less than credible” ....??”

Don’t ask us. According to the media, we’re just a bunch of haters.

OK - so the left DEMANDS “accountability” and “truth” on Iraq via reports. They fully expected the reports to be bad, more bad, and terrible.

But now that info is breaking loose that the reports are going to be surprisingly bright and positive, indicating measurable progress, they are now trying to discredit those same-said reports THEY called for.

Gallup Poll on General Petraus.

I would bet large money that more than half of those CNN polled don't have a clue who General Patraeus is, where the Middle East is on a map or how many attacks have been perpetrated on US interests in the past 30 years by islamonust.

I would also bet that at least a third of them couldn't find their asses with a clue, a flashlight and both hands.

During Rummy’s tenure, at his press conferences, he would take reporters to task for their inaccuracies.

Where is the WH/DoD media machine refuting this contrived analysis?

The adminatration loses this information war becasue they don’t fight it.

What poll results do you want?

Poll 5,000 people. Take the 1023 (don’t use a round number) answers that give what you want.

Proof positive - Bush is bad, demonrats good, Iraq war is lost, hitlery is smartest woman in the world, economy is in the dumps...

Boy, what a bunch of crap. This is unfrikin’ believable. It’s not even a Drive By Media hit job, it’s push-polling to change the way things are going. Don’t like the fact things are improving in Iraq? No problem, force a bogus poll to change the perception.

Let’s see how long it takes the Democratic front runners and party leaders to start the frain, “the American people know better...” “despite what General Petreus believes, the American people know the truth...” These people make me sick.

Military trusted by 69%
SCUS 34%
Presidency 25%
TV 23%
Newspapers 22%
Congress 14%

http://www.galluppoll.com/content/?ci=27946

So this poll by the 23% trusted organization claims what about the 69% trusted US Military...

Yet every poll ever taken puts the US Military near the top in admiration and integrity!!

Guess Gen Patreaus is admired and has integrity but if he says something the left doesn't want to hear, then he is also a LIAR!!

The MSM is still bent on discrediting The Surge through cooked polls.
