I'm also finding odd the notion that the fact that there are lots of rape-murders during wars somehow mitigates this one. What we find odd is that all the "good stuff" is very seldom reported while the median promotes the "bad stuff." Yes they are sending a message. The media viewpoint more closely resembles "Mother Sheehan's" than it does this country's. It's not an accident that the most expensive movie ever made, released for the 4th of July weekend, takes the Superman slogan of "Truth, Justice and the American Way," and changes the last three words to "All that Stuff." That's not minor. It shows the anti-American outlook of our Hollywood culture makers. Who are joined hip to hip with our MSM in outlook.

one can express distress , it is the bringing of it to extremes that one has to wonder where this is going. to take a position that "our founders of the constitution will roll over in their graves" over a rape or rapes in Iraq is exaggeration for effect to the extreme. Where is this going when you single out a few incidents and try to apply the situation to worry its like a disease that will overtake all the military in Iraq? Are we discussing the rape situation or are these posts really about the war and the administration.
