And I think there needs to be a show starring O’Donnell, Kirsten Powers, Flavia Colgan, Ana Marie Cox…hell, throw that unemployed Rocketboom chick in there…then some more tasteful lighting…music… I’m just saying, I need to get more liberal viewpoint into my TV viewing, that’s all. And I think they’d be the right hosts for it. That’s all I’m saying.

I hope that post is your attempt at being sarcastic & funny. Otherwise, I’d like to carefully point out the lack of liberal (defeatist) viewpoints in the various forms of media.

Print Media (NY & LA Times for starters as is the majority of print media including mags (or rags) like Rollingstone Mag which delve into politics and national security issues (in an effort to aid the sagging music sales of liberal(traitor) celebs such as the Dixie Chicks after they put their collective foot in their mouths.

Talk Radio (aside from NPR) the only thing the left has going on the air is AirAmerica radio…which should be classified as a failed experiment for the MoveOn.Org crowd (Hyped up ratings…when in reality they are cellardwellers, extremely limited distribution…no one is jumping to buy their programing and they in fact have to pay stations several million dollars to carry them..not exactly SOP in the talk radio business. An interesting side note is Armed Forces Network has been pressured to increase their programing of NPR (which the troops despise since its on most of the day) and to include AirAmerica, same deal with the troops hating it for dif reasons, funny thing is the troops keep requesting more of Rush, Sean, Laura Ingram, etc.

Television News/Cable News, gee aside from the old big 3 network news channels, theres CNN, MSNBC, and occasionaly C-Span. So much for a lack of liberal viewpoint.

Now, to the topic at hand, the Watada issue is nothing more than an anti-war setup. 1) Lt. Watada joined after Operation Iraqi Freedom began. 2) He never applied for CO status prior to his unit being notified of its deployment. 3) He volunteered for duty with the Sriyker Brigade (who would have thought an active duty combat arms brigade might be deployed…go figure. I am always amazed at the lengths the anti-war/anti-US crowd is willing to go to hurt this nation, the ongoing operations in Iraq and Afghan and the greater GWOT. By excusing his statements while he currently was in uniform sets a dangerous precident down the road which quite possibly lead to something akin to a Banana Republic wherein the military is the true power of the land and the civil leadership is selected(if they do as told) and are subservient to the military which is directly opposite of what we have in America where the military is subservient to the civil leadership. But then considering the makeup of most dictatorships who the left supports (Socialist, Communist, Marxist – 3 faces of the same deadly coin) a military dictatorship in America is exactly what they very well might want. As to Hackett, I have never been a big fan of his mostly for his heated statements in the past on a variety of issues, however, he was dead on debating Lt. Watada’s father (who most likely assisted in if not instigated his sons entry into the military with false intent)especially when Haditha was brought up (so much for being presumed innocent until proven guilty). Gotta give Hackett credit where credit is due.
