5. How could CNN

be so stupid....

do they really think their correspondent will be given total access? Will their correspondent be allowed to see ANYTHING the Pentagon doesn't want him to see?

This is just plain stupid.......I can't believe anybody with half a brain will think this is objective reporting......

[mopaul]

11. it's a general on a phone, not a journalist

[Auntie Bush]

19. Well , there are millions of people with a half a brain in the red states

Or about half the US population.

[kskiska]

[unhappycamper]

9. Would someone ask Donnie to send me up an order of Lemon Chicken and

grilled mangoes? I don't feel like cooking tonite.

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. So is the good general trying to do a

Warsaw Ghetto imitation?

Meebee he should stay for a month, no contact with the family and enjoy ALL the amminities, and you know exactly what I mean by them amenities, not the chicken mind you

[mopaul]

[DistressedAmerican]

21. Bing Fucking Go!

Preemptive Spin!

[mopaul]

24. did you see anybody being tortured gen. sheppard? gosh no!

[atreides1]

23. Dog and Pony Show

That's what we used to call it when I was in the Army, and when he leaves things will revert back to normal, in other words the abuse
will start up again.

Besides Sheppard is one of the best known kool-aid drinkers, and a staunch defender of BushCo, he has very little credibilty as far as I'm concerned.

Just another trained dog doing tricks for his master!!!!

[mopaul]

26. gitmo kick

[DoYouEverWonder]

28. Getting a little nervous are we?

It is so much fun watching them meltdown. It's about time.

[ComerPerro]

29. Yeah, cause they are gonna torture people after inviting the media

I mean, really.
