The Real Score

Reminiscent of Vietnam, the media since Somalia seems to be focused on body counts. OK, here goes.

Somalia
18 Rangers and Delta Force killed vs. 600 to 1,000 Somali attackers killed.

Iraq War
With an acknowledged 20 to 1 kill ratio in this war:
~3300 Americans killed vs. 66,000 (this figure does NOT include non-hostile Iraqi people. This figure estimate is terrorist combatants from a number of nations.)

These 3,300 dead Americans are, of course, all tragic but are less than the 4,400 military dead in peacetime during four years of the Clinton so-called administration and less than the last year (1980) of Carter's so-called administration, also during a time of peace.

The media must recognize they are part of the war. It is unclear whether the media in whole or in part is a willing or unwilling combatant, but our enemies have made it clear: the media is a key part of their strategy.

Sure, the terrorists' objective is to kill Americans, but it is more important to demoralize Americans for this is the only way for the terrorists to win. Terrorists need the assistance of the media. There really is no objectivity in this; you're either for us or against us.

One almost thinks the terrorists are paid advertisers of some national media outlets.

More Military Deaths In Four Years Of Clinton Administration Than Iraq War

All deaths are tragic but particularly so the deaths of America's military personnel. The media has an obsession with each death but their purpose is to embarrass president Bush. To put things in perspective, please see the following link from Rush Limbaugh's web site based on an article from Alicia Colon in the New York Sun.

“The total military dead in the Iraq war between 2003 and this month stands at about 3,133."

The Clinton years:
"1,245 in 1993; 1,109 in 1994; 1,055 in 1995; 1,008 in 1996. That's 4,417 deaths in peacetime..."

The Carter years:
"...you will find that in 1980, which was the last year of the Carter administration, there were far more military deaths in 1980 than in any year of the Bush administration."

Remember, statistics or numbers have no value unless there is a unit of measurement or a comparison of data or both. We learn this in the first month of the first semester of statistics. Too bad members of the media were taking journalism classes while some of us took math and science classes. Such coursework also explains the global warming hysteria.

Iranian "News" Agency Caught In Lie

Iran's Fars News Agency caught in a photoshop fabrication. See article attached.

How soon until the terrorists' allies in the U.S., the U.S. media use the same or a similar fabricated photo?

islam - made of liars.*

*editors note: we realize Iranians are Persians and thus a Farsi translation would have been appropriate except the message containing "liars" are for the arabic muslims who have perverted islam.

ران وفارس وكالة الانباء وتو قعوا في التلفيق. انظر المادة المرفقه. حتى متى الارهابيين حلفاء في الولايات المتحدة الامريكية في وسائل الاعلام هو نفس الصورة مفبركه؟ الاسلام الذي من كذابون.

* المحررين ملاحظه : ندرك الايرانيين الفرس وبالتالي الفارسيه ترجمة لو كان ما عدا الرسالة تتضمن "كذابون" العربية للمسلمين الذين اسلام منحرف.

Hillary in Iowa (lies, distortions, and cold weather)

Where to begin? We've all heard about Hillary's gaffe in Iowa where a reporter asked her (in the context of dealing with evil regimes) her experience in dealing with evil men. Her reply was, "What in my background equips me to deal with evil and bad men?" She tried later to explain that she was alluding to Ken Starr even though we all know she meant her husband, Bill der Slickmeister. See the NY Post link.

What the media failed to hone in on with a few exceptions was that she said she supported the ethanol industry (ethanol comes from corn and corn is big in Iowa) and that she was in favor of government ethanol subsidies. The problem is, she voted 17 times in the Senate against ethanol subsidies and she never voted for ethanol subsidies.

The other item the media missed completely is her affect on the weather. The exception was the local Des Moines Register by their headline in an inside page of, "Hillary reveals personality in Iowa." No wonder the weather that day was cold, frosty, and icy.
