Chilly Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 I completely understood they were biased, but this article fills in the cracks of exactly how much under the thumb of the admistration they were. They would have lost their jobs at the TV networks if they didn't tow Bush's line. And then the corporate angle comes in, are they just promoting the war to help their companies bottom line? Its always about how to make the most money with the media (like most businesses)
DC Tom Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 So, Reporters/Journalist Bad That's what you guys got out of this? BTW, Number of cowardly, lazy journalists killed in Iraq: 210 Number of brave--and now very wealthy--United States Generals killed: 0 The cost of right wing deniablity: priceless And what do you get out of it? Reporters and journalists who have conflicts of interest to begin with would be unbiased if they weren't forced to be dishonest by the EEEEEEVIL government releasing only the information they want released. Are you really that clueless? It's how the system works. Anyone with half a brain didn't need the Times to tell them that.

Are you really that clueless? It's how the system works. Anyone with half a brain didn't need the Times to tell them that. I've already explained that dearest Tom. But more to the point, the military officers sell themselves as honorbound gentlemen bound by the Constitution and people do believe that. Heck, I even wanted to give some of these guys the benefit of the doubt, but it's all too clear now they just don't deserve it. Nothing more than administrion hacks in uniform.............just like your General Petraeus Or is he different Tom?
molson_golden2002 Posted April 22, 2008 Author Posted April 22, 2008 I like turtles. I thought you would be really angry about this. After all, these generals are making fortunes spreading Bush's talking point and you do it for nothing. Or did somebody say something about you getting a sucker? Sucker!

Right, because the generals, especially once placed in the Pentagon, were all altruists before Jnauary 2001. Is there one, single, solitary, unique instance where you have understood a concept? You are too idiotic even for a brilliant Combo incarnation.

KD in CA Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Because after owing their positions to the Clinton administration, of course they'd be Bush's lapdogs... That's because Gonzalez fired all the generals and replaced them with "Bushies"!
OCinBuffalo Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Probably the same things you ignore about our big, corrupted government that you love so much. Let's pretend that the military is somehow different than the rest of it. Hypocrite. Funny how Molson Retard has ducked both of these posts. I wonder why? In any event, this thread makes me happy in that so many here have stated clearly that the jig is up for these trumped up stories, and nobody is willing to take these "conclusions" as "news"(supposed to be based on facts, and then examined from multiple perspectives, not just one) anymore. Well, except for Molson...but I don't think we have to worry about the Molson Retard crew getting any power or actually being placed in charge of anything now. Not with the people of Penn. rewarding Hillary for B word slapping MoveOn.org = beating Obama by 10 points, all in the same week.
