And when other news media pick up on their “spin” it’s just nauseating. Whatever happened to journalist that had integrity? The truly Ugly Americans here are the media journalists without values and integrity and their corporate owners.

Clearly there is no possible Bush-Cheney-McCain spin that the surge is working. The surge was a mistake. Our troops need to be brought home before more unnecessary loss of life.

This is a week old, but I just saw it and can’t believe Bush would be so ignorant and insensitive. But of course.
