But just how different is Aaron Brown from Peter Arnett? Brown (and many other CNN "reporters" and commentators) has at least implied all of the points made directly by Arnett.

I knew I didn't like him, something about him just stinks, guess I know now what it is.

Nice they could report the "news" with their twist.

I guess Mr. Arnett never edits his copy when he writes a story...

So Arnett is back at it again and this time around is being defendend by NBC.

You'd think that someone in tactical would figure out a way to isolate Arnett from his collegues at the foreign correspondent's housing in Baghdad and then execute a surgical strike.

It would give me the greatest personal satisfaction to hear the incomming ordinance and watch the screen go blank during an Arnett presentation.

Arnett needs to be fired, and then his passport needs to be taken from him. He can write a new book. "A Man without a Country."

I have a Peter Arnett book on my shelf inside. I was going to try to sell it again on ebay, but I think I will throw it in the garbage instead.

Actually I tried to sell it about 3 times before for $1, but no one would buy it - and that's the truth!

The first war plan has failed because of Iraqi resistance. Now they are trying to write another war plan," Arnett said. "Clearly, the American war planners misjudged the determination of the Iraqi forces."

Can we get a copy of the plan? How do you expect us to watch a war without the plan? If Baghdad is supposed to be taken by a date certain we need to know that date to measure performance to the plan. Do any of the readers have any tickets or passes to the current planning sessions being held by the war planners? Come on, somebody please post the war plan so we can keep track!

Ah the heck with it. I don't watch CNN anyway. Got Fox News on the dish.

Look for the leftist press to turn a wise decison to adapt the plan according to the situation on the ground into some kind of defeat for the coalition.

The plan was flexible and is proceeding ahead in an amazingly sucessful fashion.

Waiting a couple of weeks for another couple of divisions to come in seems like a sensible thing to do, the air war won't stop and time is on our side.

The leftist/Islamic alliance and their friends in the liberal media are mounting a desperate, last ditch effort to defeat the USA.

They will fail.

The chance that the Iraqis might be buying the misinformation Arnett is feeding them, both about the success of the military operation and the determination and support of the American public....might end up actually helping us.

George Bush said he was committed to regime change in Iraq... I guess Peter Arnett has got to go!
