Story of the Day:
Bombing the Media
In case you missed this, political cartoonist Tom Tomorrow focuses on the attempt by the White House to blame the media for negative reporting in Iraq.
Clearly, It Was the Media That Invaded Iraq, by Tom Tomorrow
This Modern World
Great toon....over the weekend, the one "great" media source who can't be blamed for anything, FOX "News," had at the bottom of the screen while discussing Iraq, the phrase, "Iraq: A New Era." If the rest of the media was just as optimistic and positive, obviously the kidnappings, beheadings and bombings would end....luv ya, FOX!

anything positive that happens in Iraq is due to the will and action of individuals, from private to sargeant to major to colonel - comitted, courageous human beings who actually believes they can be a force for good - 'community development' or 'anti insurgency tactics' are performed in contradiction to the wishes of the administration - because Rummy and co. are still in denial - so yes, there are good things happening, but the Bush administration deserves zero credit for them - they are happening DESPITE administration policy and behavior - the Bush administration only deserves blame for lying, stealing, and murdering.
