Thinks most of us understand 'mission' in Iraq but Dems, dems, dems. Quoted William Butler Yeats. Called dems traitors in so many words. That fat, stupid, ignorant weasels.
Considers Iraq war one of 'our finest hours'.
Blamed bad stuff on news cycle, the unrest. Press must explain about Saddam, no one died in vain, etc. etc. etc.
Wonder if he means our supplying Hussein?
Said pressie must talk to the people and tell them about terrible days. Said Iraq a far better country now than before and even better than others around it.
touted book
Talked about political pressures: will bush cave because of it and leave 'before job done'? Bennett: yeah. And americans have to have things done quickly -implied flaw in us, bush just needs to explain to us what is what and it will be cool.
We are being attacked by those (dems, traitors, enemies) that we will flee, we're paper tigers. "We can't prove them true."
Shit. I could fling a chair into the tv.
Now the casket ban: Never seen anyone brought home in caskets. Won't allow it. Showed the history of returning caskets. Showed the families and their tears. Showed Dover Military Mortuary. Always public before. Astronauts, dead politicians and military shown coming home there.
Now? Pentagon banned viewing. Dover test supposedly born in Kosovo. Closure is politics. Pentagon doesn't intend censorship, just wants privacy. <Choke. Puke> Experts on propaganda say its censorship and politics. Want only their side out.
We need to return this, Aaron intimates.
Duh.
