More Wishful Thinking From Newsweek Posted by Dirty Harry Jackson's Junction Newsweek's Howard Fineman (which he is not): <<< I’m sitting here with a gloomy letter from Iraq, written by a high-ranking officer I cannot name in a branch of service I cannot name in a part of the country I cannot name. But trust me, because I trust him. Iraqis, he says, have no feel for or belief in the democracy we want to create, and our occupation is making them less, not more, capable of self-government. >>> What do you know, another unnamed source used by Newsweek to undermine our efforts in Iraq. Gee, do you think Fineman gets any positive letters? I'll bet he does. Do you think he writes long columns about how well things are going after reading them? Ahem. Fineman (which he is not), and his fellow liberals have become so disjointed by hate, so frustrated by being wrong, and so anti-American, that being right about Iraq -- or more important: Bush being wrong -- is more important to them than us succeeding and the Iraqi's living in freedom and democracy. This column is another assault on America's resolve and coincides not-so-serendipitously with a flanking effort from a WaPo poll that has since been exposed as completely bogus. The liberals and their allies in the media are not and will never be done trying to reclaim the glory of their victory in Vietnam. They want us running in disgrace. They want a holocaust like the one they helped create in Cambodia. They want America on her knees with another self-esteem problem. And they want it all because in their warped minds those means justify the Democrats regaining power. The War on Terror is a war of attrition. And like Vietnam, it's a war we can only lose at home. Imagine if things were different at home -- if the media reminded us of 9/11 as often as they do Abu Ghraib. If they showed Arabs burning our flag as often as they talk about so-called Koran mishandlings. Imagine if they reported on our large successes as often as they do large car bombings. Imagine if they dwelled on our small successes as often as they do our small failures. And this kind of reporting would not be the media taking sides. It would be the media telling the truth and placing events in 0context. It would be the media doing their job. Imagine that. The enemy reads Newsweek and watches our media very closely. The enemy knows an ally when they see one. This is an ally that cost America one war. This is an ally the enemy knows they can manipulate and count on. The only way to assure no more 9/11's is to democratize the Middle East. Democracy's simply do not breed legions of international terrorists. This is a moral and just way to protect ourselves. And if Hillary Clinton were waging the same war the media would be on our side. We are watching the Finemans (which he is not) sell their very souls.
