Terrified by what General Petraeus will have to say- based on the obvious and substantial progress that has been made in Iraq lately- the anti-victory MSM is running on all cylinders with raw propaganda. First, they attempt to smear the report itself as being ‘written by the White House’; which is required by the law the Democrat Congress passed! Then, when it’s obvious that the General will be testifying publicly (and even this White House is not stupid enough to deliver a report he’ll disagree with), the press starts working on reporting proclamations from Democrat-derived or supporting groups. First, the GAO report; a historically partisan ‘non-partisan’ office that took the ‘bean-counter’ approach to judging the war. Not one factor it reviewed actually had a thing to do with defeating an enemy in the field.
Then, NewYork Times on a Democratically-appointed commission reviewing Iraqi Police, lead by a former military commander of Europe??? The went to Iraq three times and “met with senior American commanders and Iraqi officials”; in other words, never went out into the field to see for themselves. Based on that, they recommended scraping the current organization, even though they admit that would be extremely risky. The weight the NYT gives this fluff effort is unbelievable!
Then the Washington Post writes such ‘unbiased’ articles as this on how Congresspeople who are clearly working for our failure in Ira feel ’slimed’, horrified that soldiers might actually have copies of these congressional ‘leaders’ own words in their posession to help them know who they are dealing with. News flash: If you don’t want people to have to carry ‘friend or foe’ indicators around, stop acting like a foe!
The war literally is with the Democrats and the MSM at this point. Our exceptional military has it won on the battlefield against the enemy; now all that needs to be done is to force the collaborators to retreat under their respective rocks.
