Fair and balanced: uring a live press conference in Bagdad, Senators McCain and Graham were heckled by CNN reporter Michael Ware. An official at the press conference called Ware’s conduct “outrageous,” saying, “here you have two United States Senat…

Now, can you explain the global warming episode to me? LOL

Okay, I’ll give it a shot. ;-) The lice episode was not as good or as deep as other episodes, in my opinion. I thought it was a throw-away, really. But IF it was a commentary on global warming (and I’m not totally sure that it was–it had more of a flavor of mocking eco-alarmism in general to me), I think the point was that external forces caused the disaster of the lice’s world, and neither the alarmist nor the skeptics could have done anything to stop it–the “world” did it, not the lice. The “world” didn’t even notice the lice existed until someone pointed them out, and the “world” would have happily and healthily gone on, with or without the lice population on it. The alarmist’s survival to go to “another world” and live happily ever after with the crabs was just simple irony and crude humor. (Perhaps a jab at Travolta-types who think we need to build dome cities on the moon and other planets to survive when we ruin this one?) The eco statement there might be that, since no one tries to clean that “world,” their ecosystem is in fact safer for them.

No, no, no–the point they were making with the profiling business was really to make fun of Hollywood being afraid to portray terrorist characters as Muslim or Middle Eastern, as they most likely would be in real life. The stupidity of the terrorists being Russians paid by the British was a jab at that PCism.

As for it being a hand job for Hillary, I beg to differ on that as well. I felt she was portrayed quite negatively–sort of a “nothing” character. She put on a fake Southern accent for the benefit of her audience, she contributed absolutely nothing in the crisis, and she was apparently oblivious enough to have a nuke you-know-where without realizing it. They also pointed out that she and Bill have a fake marriage. None of the characters wanted to get near her, and no one was concerned about saving her. That’s not a flattering portrayal at all, in my opinion.

Sorry for the OT conversation.

Hmm!! You made me think about this some more. I will watch the re-run over the weekend and see if I get any of these impressions as a second go around.

I wonder when was the last time ware left his hotel in the green zone…

When he embedded himself with the islamists.

He even has the Muslim face hair so that he can gain credibility with the terrorists he loves to cover.

He should have had his press credentials canceled along time ago and thrown out of Iraq for aiding and abedding the enemy.

The headline to this post is grossly inaccuate. What is this – The HuffPo?

The point of the [South Park] episode, that everyone hates america and you are a racist if you want to profile people, wasn’t very well received by me.

just sayin’

The story he tells is generally at odds with Roggio and others and is always negative. It is at odds with what Michelle and Bryan have reported.

For example, he is reporting the early successes of the surge in the most favorable light for Al Qaeda and JAM. For example: Rounding up over 400 terrorists, disrupting their IED and chemical weapons factories, having the locals rat out the terrorists, especially Al Qaeda in Baghdad and Anbar forcing them to move out BECOMES they’re just laying low until they see how the surge is going.

The question is why he is lying.

Hey, psst, 20bucks for a story, and bring me back a bagel and a smear.

Ok, so your description of him was way better than mine.

He looks like he is getting a prostate exam…an unexpected one.

Good one. Ware is so obviously On Drugs in some of his reports that it’s kinda funny in a wierd sick way. Sometimes he nay-says his CNN overlords, and Displeasure is expressed by Wolfie and the other blathering syncophantic LeftTurds at that Waste Disposal Site of a network

So ‘Bette Davis Eyes’ Ware is a Mixed Blessing, rendering unto the viewership a very uneven view of events…..
