BRING THEM HOME NOW...pro and con people on CNN
Anybody see it?....The family that is "so proud their husband and father served" in Iraq got A LOT OF TIME....It looked like nothing was edited out....On the other hand we only got snippets of the "Bring them home now" people....Nothing like was seen on C-SPAN.....This no doubt is their idea of "fair and balanced" reporting....:puke:

2. Apparently he came home and died about 3 hrs. later of heart attack
They were explaining how proud they were to have had him "serve his country."

3. And now CNN has found some soldiers in Walter Reed hospital who
are "ready to get back to work" (to the war) after getting his artificial leg....No mention of the many military who are mad as hell and wanting to come home as is reported from other sources....Ya...sure is balanced reporting :puke:

I heard they had started classifing amputee's as "not severely injured" though so maybe they really believe it and are going to send that guy back :shrug:
