A Minnesota Neocon's LTTE Re: WH blaming Newsweek
What genetic malfunction created people like this? A news magazine did not torture Muslims.

Fire some people

I was saddened to read about the loss of life from protests due to the allegations of mistreatment of the Qur'an. My remorse quickly turned to outrage when I learned that Newsweek had retracted the inflammatory remarks.

It is not enough to say that it is sorry -- the people responsible should be fired. Accountability and responsible reporting for all forms of media are essential.

As far as I am concerned, the blood of those 16 dead is on the hands of Newsweek.

xxxx, Eden Prairie.

1. We need more proof that some people don't bother with
"the rest of the story?"

Must be nice to be spoon fed and not have to actually do any thinking for yourself.

Fire some people

I was saddened to read about the loss of life from WARS due to the allegations of WMDS AND LINKS TO TERROR. My remorse quickly turned to outrage when I learned that, ALTHOUGH THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY HAS ADMITTED "WE WERE ALL WRONG", THE WHITE HOUSE HAS NOT retracted the inflammatory remarks.

It is not enough to say that "WE WERE ALL WRONG" -- the people responsible should be fired. Accountability for all forms of GOVERNMENT IS essential.

As far as I am concerned, the blood of those 1600 US MILITARY AND UNTOLD THOUSANDS OF IRAQI dead is on the hands of THE WHITE HOUSE.

Anyone else feel free to clip and post it, though!

7. That's right, blame the reporting, not the criminals. Bushco gets
a free ride again.
