Quote by: dthmstr254 this soldier has VOLUNTEERED TWICE OVER TO RETURN to Iraq. he said that when the news reached him that the polls had come to the states from the question of whether they wanted to stay in Iraq, he was "apalled" by the media's "twisting" of the polls. his unit is all there and doesn't want to come back yet. on live radio, they said that they wanted America to know the truth of what our troops wanted, and it wasn't what our media told us. this is what I picked up off of a live interview held over the phone with a soldier in Iraq on 107.9 Duke FM Chattanooga, TN. this soldier's entire unit had volunteered unanimously to make their third trip to Iraq, and said they would make a fourth on the air shortly before reception cut out. this soldier had the mike, that is what he said. I thank him over this idiot who eats what the press feeds him. |
knee-jerk apologist's response - demonize the media.
pretty interesting too since there are a lot of iraq vets who are running for office and oppose the war.. i guess they must've been watching too much CNN while they were sweating it out in iraq, eh? what a bunch of idiots, they should be more gung ho like the guy who wrote that babble.
