A Dissertation Upon the Differences Between the MSM and The MSM

Well, between the MSM over here and the MSM back home, anyway.

Today's below-the-fold headline from The Nation:

250 militants, 60 troops killed in one month

End of dissertation.

It seems that a lot of the insurgents are being driven out of Baghdad into other parts of Iraq. That's what the MSM is reporting in the states. They are bringing the violence with them too. I would be glad if the insurgents were also being worn down too and not just building up strength and waiting for a troop draw down.

BillT, Come on, Bill, this is what keeps it interesting. Seriously, there is one other character in this whole story. To put it politely, she is a "REAL HAG", her name is "History". We better start listening to this old gal. I believe there has been a conscious choice by our leaders to drive her out. The problem is this, she has a "pushback" deeply laced with vengence. There is an old saying, "He who does not learn from history is condemned to repeat it." Grumpy

[three subsequent power failures later...] Dunno about the info to the politicians, though. F'r instance, the term "truth" has two diametrically-opposed meanings, depending on which side of the infield fence you're leaning on. And a third, entirely different one if you're deep in left field...

Thanks, Grumpy -- even though weekends here are just extensions of the rest of the week. Long as there's over 30% ambient illum, anyway...
