Watching FOX News this morning... Please help me understand this. Why when violence was out of control in?
Iraq they never said we were losing the war or making mistakes or going down the wrong road or anything other than we're doing the right thing and we are the solution not the problem?
But, when violence has decreased do they say we are winning the war and decreased violence proves it?
Either violence in Iraq is a measurement for success or it isn't... which one is it?

FOX news is really, really stupid and their slogan of "Fair and Balanced" is a huge joke to anyone who is to the center of Atilla the Hun. They can take a vote of 3 to 97 as proof that the democrats (the 3) were toeing the democratic line. Instead of watching that smarmy stuff, watch shows that are not buried in the neo-conservative line and make up your own mind about balance in the news.

A New York Times writer, actually said in an article, that Bush is censoring the good news from Iraq.
Yes, thats right, a liberal writer, said Bush is censoring the good news coming out of Iraq,
To make Iran look worse.
Makes ya wonder, why that reporter, has never reported any of that good news coming out of iraq.

a number of you adult men are severe ********* right here... not you Leah yet a number of those solutions, goddamn... right here is the fact; Fox is biased to the nicely suited no rely what, no rely what proportion circumstances Bush ****** up, they have been with him... and inspite of whether or not Obama does nicely, they are going to be against him... they're going to discover the thank you to push Bush's **** over onto Obama, they're going to misrepresent his place, they're going to forget approximately approximately each little thing stable he does... each and each anchor on the channel, do any of you quite doubt that? Do you, Leah? it quite is their ideology, they don't care what if fact learn, they start up out with their conclusions and preserve those from any data against them. people criticize MSNBC for being too left yet in all honesty they have been severe of Obama while he's ****** up, and been with him he's stable... adult men like Keith Olbermann, they appear as if they simply desire the fact, are you able to easily say the comparable approximately O'Reiley or Beck? As for CNN, they are ok besides, Anderson is pretty objective, and no person on there quite bothers me. None of those networks are completely independent yet you adult men have have been given to verify the blatant, unchanging, reprehensible bias on the FOX information channel.

Ask the right and they'll say that a decrease in violence is a sign that the surge is working.
Ask the left and they'll say that there never would have been an increase if we'd just stayed out of there.
Ask me, and I'll say that both are right!
It truly depends on the opinion of the person.

Fox News is for morons. Too dumb to think for themselves. Did Iraq have daily car bombs before we invaded? No. Could the citizens go to the market or to school without the threat of being blown to pieces? Yes. Now they can't. Doctors are fleeing the country, their military is a mess, their police force is corrupt, the oil pipelines are being blown up daily.
Thanks George and the Ra-Ras for war at Fox News

I don't watch FOX all that much but, even I know O'Rielly has been saying that the Bush war strategy was a disaster from the start.
Juan Williams is always on there tooting the Democrats Horn.
There is no shortage of NPR reps on Fox doing the same thing.
Are we watching the same channel?

All the news does this. The reason is trying to make the war look bad, but in reality it is doing well, and as it is doing well all of a sudden, out of the blue, Pelosi comes up with this Turkey and flipflop history around. But you never hear about her mistake either. As you do not hear about the good in Iraq. You just hear about all the bad. Nor do you hear that 25 Americans die a day by illegal immigrants.
"On average each day 25 Americans die at the hands of criminal aliens in the United States. Twelve Americans are murdered by criminal aliens. Another ten Americans are killed by drunk-driving criminal aliens. Finally, an additional three Americans will die because of negligent homicides by criminal aliens, such as running a red light, speeding, or the negligent handling of a dangerous weapon."

There will always be violence in Iraq, whether we are there or not. I wish the government and police could just be stable already so we can get the hell out of dodge. This is taking WAY too long.
