Let's talk about 'Truth' for a second, Garza -
Where is the footage of all the new hospitals being built?
Where is the footage of all the new schools being built?
Where is the footage of all the infrastrcture, medical facilities, supplies, sports equipment, the soldiers walking through towns being approached by Iraqis who want to shake their hands and thank them (It's happening - been there and going back again soon), where are the scenes of kids running up to the convoys cheering as the soldiers throw out candy (which we had to stop because the Iranians began using IEDs against the convoys which were killing kids running up for candy)....
WHERE is the REAL Truth about what is going on in Iraq, Garza?
Don't give me this liberal excuse BS for CNN refusing to air the REAL truth about the whole picture of what is going on over there because it doesn't fit their agenda yet promoting/running terrorist propoganda SNUFF Films of these same terrorists killing our soldiers!
This is the same news agency who so UN-professionally and blatantly biasedly ran a flashing 'X' over the Vice President of the United States' face during one of his speeches! CNN has become the U.S. District Office for Al Jazeera! THAT is a 'TRUTH' America should understand!
There once was descency in this country, where flag-draped coffins coming home from war were NOT allowed to be seen. We all knew it was happening and didn't need to see it - did not show it out of respect for these soldiers.....until this BS partisan political movement that has engulfed both parties, where nothing is taboo any more, nothing is sacred, and nothing is off limits.
Descency and respect were thrown under the bus for the opportunity to score a hit on your political opponent. I guess the next logical, yet immoral and IN-descent, step from showing flag-draped coffins of our soldiers for the Liberals and CNN was to show terrorist propoganda SNUFF flms showing the actual murder of our soldiers, exploiting their deaths for a political agenda and ratings!
Also, we all know that rape is horrible. We know child molestation is horrible. CNN said they felt they had to air this footage to show the 'reality' of war. So when are they going to have reporters follow rapists and child molesters around, film their heinous crimes, then show all of America the 'Truth' and the 'Reality' of what THESE acts are like?! Just like rape and child molestation, we already know war is bad, people get killed, and soldiers die in pretty horrible ways - we don't need to exploit their deaths by showing it on national TV for some agenda or for ratings! War is not a spectator sport! War isn't a reality TV show like 'Survivor'! And the news is not a place to air terrorist propoganda. If you want to get an idea of what war is like, go rent 'Saving Private Ryan'. If that don't sate 'your' semi-sick curiosity/need-to-know, then you need help!
You wanna talk to me about TRUTH, Garza, then you give me a media that SHOWS the REAL Truth about Iraq, the good and the bad, even if it does not fit their own agenda! Until then, your argument holds NO water!
