You're tilted so far to the right that you think megacorporate media is liberal. Right-o. That's why the AP failed to run the Downing Street Memos. That's why the NYTimes sat on the illegal domestic spying story for a year. That's why the NYTimes ran Judith Miller's stories championing the rightwing propaganda for war.

The US military is stuck, fighting a very long 'war' against a ragtag insurgency in a third world country less than 1/10th our size devastated by decades of oppression and sanctions.

THAT is reality. It makes the US look WEAK. It makes the US look VULNERABLE.

On top of everything, we're spending $500 BILLION and who knows how many ruined lives to install a fundamentalist Islamic Theocracy on top of the world's second largest oil reserves.

Why are we fighting to install political organizations like the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq?

Why?
