An interview with Geraldo, just back from Iraq, led to the discussion that news is slanted towards the bad and the spectacular. That it was amazing to him to watch elections being held in a city for the first time. That people were out and walking the streets in relative safety under their own police force.
And so we get a body count, day after day.
And dont forget the $4 bil/mo cost of the Military
Thats the magic figure, unchangeable, a solid fact $4 bil/mo, $4bil.mo. Sometimes they get it wrong and say $4 bil week.
Is that in addition to their normal pay, to their food, housing and training costs, to their vehicle maintenance costs, in the States?.
We should demand facts and a breakdown of those figures from the Press, not just speculation.
And if they get it wrong, or get misinterpreted, we can call them liars.
