Commentary: What It's All About

OK, in an effort to circle the wagons around News-WEAK, the MSM have reduced themselves to attacking the President by proxy, now in their defamation of our troops. And don't kid yourselves - the Grab-an-Arab prison follies, Koran-gate, Saddam Skivvy-gate, and this twit, Linda Foley, saying that our military are killing journalists in Iraq "with impunity"** - their condemnation of Iraqi Freedom in general is all about their intense hatred of President Bush. If it was Bill Clinton instead of George W. Bush in the White House you can be certain that the war would be hailed as the greatest humanitarian effort in our nation's history, and our troops as courageous heroes freeing millions of oppressed people from a tyrranical madman. However, they have now shown their true colors and never...I repeat...NEVER AGAIN can they do or say anything that in any way could be construed as "supporting the troops" or showing respect for our military.

The next time you see any news piece from the MSM showing our wounded troops recovering at Walter Reed or that otherwise portrays our troops as those deserving of our respect and appreciation, we will know they don't mean it. They might do it for ratings, but certainly not because they truly feel that way. The rats in the MSM have shown clearly that they are on a mission to do everything they can to smear the President and are willing to destroy the United States in the process. Had we this kind of journalism during WWII we would have lost. Giving aid and comfort to the enemy, inflaming their already insane tendencies, resulting in our troops being placed at greater risk, the actions of the MSM are nothing short of sedition. Sympathy for the devil, indeed.

“Journalists, by the way, are not just being targeted verbally or … ah, or … ah, politically. They are also being targeted for real, um … in places like Iraq. What outrages me as a representative of journalists is that there’s not more outrage about the number, and the brutality, and the cavalier nature of the U.S. military toward the killing of journalists in Iraq. They target and kill journalists … uh, from other countries, particularly Arab countries like Al -, like Arab news services like al-Jazeera, for example. They actually target them and blow up their studios with impunity."

--Linda Foley, President of the Newspaper Guild

**LaShawn Barber has a good take on this Linda Foley and along with RadioBlogger, a link to the audio and video of the speech in which she made these remarks.
