Ken,
re:Isn't there something very troubling about treating a war like a spectator sports event?

Losers of the 2000 and 2002 election trying to gain an advantage from the war by hoping for setbacks is very troubling.

Yes there is. And just as responsible parents do not let their children watch trash tv, Americans must look at this themselves as an example of why war is to be avoided. We spent 12 years trying to avoid this war. It would not bother President Bush OR General Franks if not one second of this was put on tv, but the press would scream bloody murder if it was not. PLUS with reporters traveling with frontline troops, it can be seen by the world that we are not slaughtering folks wholesale, like some would have you believe.

BUT..think back..in WW2, did not the people of USA go to the movies on Saturday to see clips about the war that had been filmed and sent back to the states....no different now, only it is live tv.

We are about to treat the purging of the anti-American domestic enemy the same way. You can watch it on FOX, or the soon-to-be-reformed CNN...

Are you really Tom Daschle? He is always "troubled" about one thing or another.

Were this a war, you'd have a point. Fortunately, this ain' no war. We can enjoy it because it's just a demonstration.

He predicted a two-stage conflict in which Americans would score an initial military victory but then lose out to a protracted, bitter war of resistance.

this above post's analysis shows where the mind of the poster is. idiots.mine.nu

u s should be serious.it should concentrate on protecting u s, not pr. it shouldn't have press conferences, embedded journalists, our allies standing with tommy franks and a black take the mike, if it was for political correctness. u s should be killing the enemy, not destroying buildings. u s should take abandoned tanks, not destroy them. u s should not have limited war to iraq. u s should not have procrastinated. u s should not kiss ass of dictators- and call them allies. u s should not protect terrorists. u s should support others who fight terrorists, not stay their hands. u s should take the spoils.
