Why is that rag still in business????? They hate America!
So this guy’s boss was Baghdad Bob. No wonder the Slimes jumped at a chance to hire him.
One of my great disappointments with Pres. Bush is that he didn’t slap the treasonous msm, especially the nyt, in chains. How do you convince the sheep that the country is at war if the enemy comprise half of your congress and virtually all of your media?
Good call!
All reporters for the New York Times and much of the rest of the MSM for that matter, must take a blood oath. They make a small incision in their wrist, bleed into an empty bottle of green tea and recite the creed of the left: God damn America, God damn America, God damn America.

“The true origin of the phrase lies in a medieval Latin legal principle: exceptio probat regulam in casibus non exceptis, which may be translated as “the exception confirms the rule in the cases not excepted”.”
Unfortunately, this is probably also true:
“Despite the number of reference books which carefully explain the origin and true meaning of the expression, it is unlikely that it will ever be restored to strict correctness.

Hehe. No kidding. Not only do they want us to read the dribblings of an ex-officer for Saddam, but they want us to pay for the "privilege"?
A few headlines from the past couple of years. I wonder why the news always seems to be bad concerning NY Times profits?

Just when you think you’ve seen it all.
The NYT is nothing but a bunch of lying, treasonous, faggot commies that sincerely hate the USA.
They are consummate professionals.
At hating, that is.
Perhaps the news paper of choice for most of the idiots in the Senate and HR, when they try to make points on some issue.
