"Let me be the first to say that your opinion here is assed up! "

How intelligent. Hey - don't hate me. Rest assured that I am no part of the liberal media. I wish (as I'm sure you do too) that the media would either print nothing, or print only positive info re:Iraq. Then we could test this idea that the media are killing our troops. Because I think that the guerilla tactics and attacks on our troops would continue regardless.

Unfortunately, we won't be able to test this idea, as we both know that the media (liberal or conservative) has an agenda. I hope our boys continue to wear their body armor everywhere - they're gonna need to for a long time.

Ok, let me start over. Speaking as someone who has been there (forward deployed for OIF), and speeking as someone who know a little about the impact of incorrect (us proaganda) or biased news coverage on the deployed serviceman. I can tell you that the over hyping of the negative and under reporting of the gains made is flat out demoralizing to us and gives resolve to the bad guys! To add insult to the fallen, Idiots like Fat Teddy and the like are giving the enemy ammo for their propaganda machine that is in fact contributing to our battlefield casualties. I dont hate, but whether you care ot admit it or not, these things are happening.
