What about the barely covered protests in march and April? Aren't there still Iraqi's dying? Aren't there U.S. servicemen dying? War is only immoral when it takes place in a city?

Indeed, what about it?

Far fewer opposition.

Iraqis are dying in less numbers, US servicemen are set to leave soon.

War is more dangerous in a city.

WTF do you want?

I want a world where the press doesn't grovel at the feet of dear leader.
Where his celebrity isn't raised by swatting a fly or blowing his nose.
Morality separate from politics, conviction and ideals that go beyond political candidates. People actually genuinely giving a shit.

You're so dishonest, it's impossible to debate you. That 1 trillion dollars was over 10 years, which according to my calculator is 1 hundred billion a year, far less than both wars, and people will be covered - plus that has been whittled down to 60 billion a year (hopefully, still with a robust public option).

But, you slip in these sophistic kernels in your posts often, which is misleading at best, and downright propagandistic talking points at worst.

Sorta like the fawning of the "aw shucks" brush clearing, wanna have a beer with guy that could yell into a microphone and utter the obvious in our time of need.

Yeah, Bush was dipped in gold for six years until even he couldn't keep up the charade anymore ...

Laudable aims.

Yet you also want Americans to protest about a foreign policy that is going exactly the way they want it to - the troops to leave Iraq.

So why havent you quit whining already?

Me, when was I whining? I was speaking out about the corrupt/incompetent press that is towing the line for Dear Leader.
They really only gave a damn about wars over seas when they had Bush to scream at. Afghanistan should be fun to watch.

Why are you deceiving us?

They still give a damn about Iraq, but theres little point in prostesting when youre getting your own way.

As for Afghan. Most Libs agree with this policy and have done from the start..

Ocasionally, the media has to pretend that it is still a free press.
