2. That can't be. If it were, why would MSM report on all our success?

Jonah Goldberg just wrote that we are winning and will win in Iraq.
Friedman is about due for another unit.
The WHite House repeatedly tells us that we are making progress all over Iraq.

So, how dare you try to impact our perceptions with this truth-based reporting?

4. But the media hasn't reported that. In fact they only mention the war in passing.

Oh...by the way --- I was catching something on CNN and just happened to glance down to the scroll. It was saying Anna Nicole Smith was presumed to take an overdose of drugs in her hotel room, that it had been so many months since it happened. CAN YOU TRULY BELIEVE THIS. What in the hell are they still reporting that Anna Nicole has passed away.

5. 2 more troops killed in Iraq this week

2 more troops killed in Iraq this week

Wow only two more this week, according to that headline!

Actually, 9 U.S. troops were killed October 8 - 11, seven of them on the Oct. 10.


The media appears determined to spin the data.

7. We won't mention the 1.2 million dead Iraqi's because their lives aren't worth as much.
