Howdy
What really gets me are the institute qualified
military and middle east "analysts", who describe
Iraq's actions in terms of he or sadam! You'd think
professional reputation would mean something when
you're on tv but I guess not.
There is one show I can live with, Buchanan and Press
at 2pm eastern on msnbc is about the only place where
you won't hear that sort of crap. Sometimes that
hardball guy is ok as well.
