I think he may be stretching this (I would say lie, but I won't) by using a blog from the ahem..."Progressive Populist" with the title of the article, "Why does the Bush Administration Hate Our Troops?"
http://www.commondreams.org/views03/0812-11.htm

The article pulls a short paragraph FROM the Army Times to wit: "As Army Times wrote: "Taken piecemeal, all these corner-cutting moves might be viewed as mere flesh wounds. But even flesh wounds are fatal if you suffer enough of them. It adds up to a troubling pattern that eventually will hurt morale – especially if the current breakneck operations tempo also rolls on unchecked and the tense situations in Iraq and Afghanistan do not ease."

But I cannot find in the Army Times itself where it states as this author appears to believe (hmmmm...) that "The Army Times hates this administration."

I believe this fellow has taken literary license a bit far, could be wrong, but then again I don't think so.
