But the NYTimes doesn’t give a d@mn about soldiers. The point I was trying to make is we can EXPECT to start seeing positive stories on our military now that Dems are about to take over. They have to turn the bus around before Obama or Hill get there so the libs support the war by then.

I agree with you there - but I think "a funny thing" happens to reporters like these who don't just go in with a preconceived notion = or even if they do - after they spend weeks with them, and go through the battles at their side, experience the up close and far too real death of troops they have come to know personally - they write from a different perspective than they may have or than their editors had envisioned...kind of a 'Stockholm Syndrome" in reverse?
