Modern “journalists” are too scared to go see actual combat, so they outsource their reporting to the people that do combat against our guys then sell it back in America as fact.

Gee, what a world.

It still strikes me as odd that the majority of stories are from reporters holed up in the Green Zone. The majority of Iraq is doing very well with new schools, power grids, you know, normal lives. The AP is obsessed with Baghdad, and if you hole up in the Green Zone, that’s all you’ll see, the bad stuff. Try listening to Ollie a bit more…..

Steyn needs his own show. Send Greta back to CNN.

reaganaut on December 7, 2006 at 9:34 PM

I second that. And Oh… Greta, the queen of the inane question. Yes, back to CNN with her.

Maxx on December 8, 2006 at 12:29 AM

There’s a reason I refer to her as Greta van Gossipcolumn. In my book, she rates somewhere between Weekly World News and The National Enquirer.

I was listening to Steyn on the Powerline podcast last night and it occured to me that he is going to replace Ann Coulter in the pundit rotation. Unlike Ann, he wraps his pointed comments in a cheery wit that makes them easy to listen to, allowing them to slip thru the defenses of listeners who may be resistant to facts.

Ann can’t hide her disgust at the stupidity of the Left and I don’t blame her, but it leads to her blurting out things that allow the Left to focus on the “meanness” of her words and ignore the greater point she may’ve been trying to make.

The way she torpedoed “Godless” with her comments about the Jersey Girls is a prime example of her putting her foot in her mouth and then shooting herself in the foot. She infamously said, “I’ve never seen people enjoying their husbands’ deaths so much”, but with the addition of THREE WORDS – “I’ve never seen people enjoying the benefits of their husbands’ deaths so much” – she would’ve been able to more accurately characterize the limelight-seeking of the Girls as opposed to making it just sound catty and mean.

Of course, if Steyn starts to get more exposure, it’s going to drive the Left crazy because they won’t be able to slap him down with cracks about his appearance or manners.

Perfect!!!

If Condoleeza Rice gets political itches later next year, then Steyn for Sec. of State.

If not, Steyn for UN ambassador, now!

He can think and chew up his opponents at the same time.

Always refreshing.

Things are going great in Iraq. The problems are from the media.

Ah yes, every time you get a liberal in a discussion on Iraq they throw out this pathetic straw man. If you had bothered to even watch the video you would have clearly seen that both O’Reilly and Steyn agreed that things in Iraq are going very badly. So either you couldn’t be bothered to watch the video or you are being blatantly dishonest in your post. Either way, it’s a pretty good indicator that you have nothing of value to say.

Its interesting to note that 9 out of 10 on the ISG are LAWYERS!!!

Only 2 have any military experience… and neither of them have COMBAT experience.

But all were proffesional POLITICIANS….

Now… lets look at how Lawyers and Politicians “win”… don’t they “talk” for a living??? Therefore, just what type of a solution do they come up with???

/in his best Church Lady voice…

Ohh… I don’t know… talking???

AP: Still not off the hook…

“Who is Jamil Hussein?” is becoming the new “Who is John Galt?”–a blogospheric refrain that both summarizes and challenges MSM apathy about its questionable war reporting. Townhall’s Mary Katharine Ham is the latest to pose the question in the Wa…

I love this guy, in a manner of speaking, not in the Foley sense. What a commentary indeed when a Brit has to instruct the Super-power on how to be a super-power. As for the ISG, another famous American has coined the most apropos name…The Iraq Surrender Group. Yes Abu Baker and Al Hamilton have done the jihad proud…….

gmcjetpilot, no one should lecture for free. At least show the minimal decency of aiding and comforting our enemies as far away from me as possible. I don’t want a dialogue with you and your kind. You are my personal, visceral enemy.

Wil, the Colosseum would be a perfect image to use for a Steyn program. But it would have to be a picture as it is today, not a rendering of what it looked like in its glory. As it is today, with big chunks crumbled away, it’s an excellent metaphor for the decay of what we used to lovingly refer to as Western Civilization, before the multiculti crowd established the nonsense that all cultures (other than ours, that is) are all equally valid, and it’s racist of us to think ours is better (but fine for them to think theirs is, because, well, if that’s what their culture SAYS….)

i hate to make this tired point but fox news has a large viewership and it has anything but a liberal bias.

crr6 on December 8, 2006 at 2:10 AM

It’s all relative. Compared to the news outlets that are primarily Democrat propaganda outfits, fox news seems like a right wing news outlet. If I had a news network, fox news would be seen for the left of center news network that it actually is.
