So how’s the war going, journalists?

While the US military is kicking ass and taking names, where’s the “mainstream media”? Well, they’d prefer to focus on idiot stories instead. from the NY Times we learn how the military has revised their desertion numbers up. And the Washington Post wants to tell us how insecure the UN Secretary General was yesterday when a rocket struck a block away from him.

While they’ve vitually ignored the fact that the “surge” is working, you have to find out the truth from the blogosphere, places like Flopping Aces, Black Five, Mudville Gazette’s MilBlogs, Crotchety Old Bastard, Michael Yon, Bill Rogio, Dadmanly among countless others. If you want to find out how many veterans the war protesters encountered last weekend, you have to go to the blogs because the NY Times called them a “few hundred” and the Washington Post called them a “rally”.

When John Murtha calls our troops murderers, when Dick Durbin says our troops are no better than SS guards, it’s headlines splashed across the Times and Post. When an American Marine throws himself on a grenade to save his comrades from certain death, you have to go to the blogs to find out about it.

It’s a sad state of affairs when the media is so entrenched against the American people that they’ll sacrifice our national security for an empty and dying political ideology.
