Of course McCain is silent. He needed them to help him push the war against Iran.

Hmmm. I don’t recall anyone claiming that having former and current military officers prepped to go on public media, posing as ‘independent’ unbiased subject matter experts, while no disclaimer of said prepping to catapult the administration’s line was against the law.

Yes it is. There is actually a law against it. I heard it mentioned, but can’t recall. If anyone can get this info, it’ll be greatly appreciated.

McCain is also silent on Rush Limbaugh’s remarks “wishing” for a riot at the Denver Democratic Convention this summer.

McCain isn’t far off from calling Iraq the newest “colony” to the United States. Bet the service men and women love his zest for unending conflict.

He’s just trying to recall whether he’s for it or against it; either/or/both.

Isn’t Top Gun a film riddled with gay overtones? I have no problem with that but me thinks topgun might want to know so as to start work on the next incarnation

This program did not break the law. they just suspended it until further investigation. Toilet Paper loves to jump the gun on everything before all the fact are out. Especially when it might be perceived by uninformed & ignorant people to be one way when in reality it’s the total opposite. Thats why the Program was created because of sites like this and news outlets that distort the truth and only report portions of a story to fit their political ideology.

If you really believe that; than you do not have all the facts to make an informed decision. Name calling is never necessary. We don’t distort facts but bring the truth to light.

But which is worse: a) putting moles in the press pool so that they will parrot your position -or- b) turning your generals testifying (lying?) before Congress to giving biased and politically targeted reports ?????

Actually , isn’t silence a better option than actually having to listen to McStupid ?

What’s he going to say , anyway ?

I mean , outside of “My Friends” 30 – 40 times………….

It would be interesting to hear what McFlip says.
Then a couple hours later, to hear what McFlop has to say.

Update: Free Press has launched a campaign here asking Congress to investigate the Pentagon’s pundits.

I am sure there will be a fresh round of nasty letters now…..

The Nation’s Ari Melber has now received statements from both Sens. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and Barack Obama (D-IL) condemning the program. Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) response? Silence.

Actually , isn’t silence a better option than actually having to listen to McStupid ?

What’s he going to say , anyway ?

I mean , outside of “My Friends” 30 – 40 times………….

I doubt McCain would ever respond to something in The Nation. Too bad no one else will ever ask him.

McLame does not consider such propaganda as a bad thing: “We are at war. In war it’s important to win the hearts and minds of the enemy. I have met the enemy, and it is us.”
