I am just saying that all casualties of this war are just as important as his.
And remember that no one ever wins a war.
Remember these people are vastly Democrat, and are more than happy to try to shape public opinion in such a way as to be damaging to our President's policy, and for that matter damaging to our nation.
what?
i guess they (media) feel special because "they were there" and have film to prove it.

Jason, I could see your reaction to Democratically-inspired sniping at the President if we were talking about lots of casualties and "is it all worth it?" but I think you're overstepping in describing media anomosity towards a Republican president. I'm sure you remember Clinton taking it quite vigorously in the shorts over Somalia, the Chinese embassy, the factory in Sudan, etc., etc. Reporting values being first on coverage over party spin.
That said, freedom of the press belongs to those who own one, and I challenge you to show more media outlets run by staunchly Democratic sympathies over Republican. It's not as lopsided as a fervent Republican might like to belive. *No* one is beating up Bush over this loss that I have seen.

Jason -- your counterargument is one I'd also make, but instead for Ronald Reagan and associated events. Talk about a President the media loved! Geeeeez. You could have bowled me over with a feather to say a leftist media shaped his image.

I'm sure they would have been more annoyed if she wasn't such a "frisky biscuit".

Jason: is she the same one that asked an F/A-18 pilot how he felt knowing one of his bombs went astray and hit a residential area? if so, she definitely needs to get spanked!
