Pathetic M$M keep praising Chimp's insane Iraq war.
Iraqi elections were just a small ray of light on very dismal situation. Some of these media people have chugged the kool aid.

2. what else is new
CNN, Fox MSNBC are all Bush lovers. At least CNN tries to appear unbiased, the other two don't bother. Coming soon - Tucker Carlsen to add to msnbc lineup of Scarborough and Matthews.

3. MSM keeps reporting on the latest,
the latest car-bombing, the latest insurgent uprising, the latest American casualty, etc, etc, etc. But they never once ask the tough question "WHY?" Why is all of this happening and could the reason possibly be for wrong reasons? We need to debate the issues, but all the MSM does is report on the consequences of those issues. They've consumed far too much kool-aid to do anything more.

4. "Some of these media people"?
The vast, vast majority. Iraqi elections will be as forgotten as Iraqi independence (remember June 30, 2004?) in a few months time.

It's not that they're ignorant or naive. They are telling the people what they want to hear, and making more money because of it.
