***** now we only need Faux News to do a little expose on Blackwater*********
So as usual, when you cannot make your point, change the discussion to Blackwater, Fox or Bush.
I see you edited it.

Absolutely.
Mach apparently has never heard of the late, great Maaaarrrvin Zindler.... who could manufacture "news stories" at the drop of a hat.

All of those who celebrate the demise of professional journalism should let these serve as examples of what is to come. As flawed as the NYT et al are, it would be sorely missed if it's replaced by independent expose journalism. In many ways, Woodward and Bernstein was a genuine triumph for journalism and democracy, but it let loose the scourge of professional investigative journalism.

I did delete it SOAF. You had to copy that pretty fast. I deleted it as son as I posted it. I just wish sometimes you guys on the right could see how your manipulated. The left is manipulated too. The Abu Ghraib thing comes to mind how they just pounded and pounded Bush with that. I know both sides do it. I admit to it, how about you............

Really? You allow yourself to be manipulated and it would make you feel better if those of us who don't just said we did? How about you just stop allowing others to manipulate you?

15 billion=100's of billions. Only in Obama math.
Is that the math you teach?
Everybody makes those types of mistakes. He owned up to it...move on.
I guess I'm just going to be petty on this one. Mach, is Torch right? Are you owning up to your mistake? A simple "yes" and I'll move on.

Yes, I made a mistake, that same article also mentions 125 billion as in what was spent in 2006. That's what I thought was the unaccounted part. I misread it. Only 15 billion of that 125 billion went to kickbacks and lined pockets. My bad.

Thats just a bit over 10%... which is pretty "honest" for over in the Middle East.

RE: James and Hannah 3, Acorn 0
Hannah and Breitbart on Hannity tonight said more to come and tomorrows will be "devastating". Only would say "there may or may not be more after that".
WMD Owl, might as well edit 4 to 0 now.

BTW, she was on Hannity tonight. That is, hands down, one of the best looking women I've ever seen in my life.

Not gonna play *** ba ya with you, theres too much at stake. I see a dire situation for my kids and grandkids. I do not want economic reparations. I don't want socialized anything. I do not want wealth redistribution. I don't want a nanny state. What I do want is a limited federal government free from corruption. A balanced budget where our leaders can not steal from the future generations. I'm ready to throw down for my kids and grandkids.
Just as the Signers of The Declaration of Independence did, I pledge my Life, my Fortune and my sacred Honor in defense of this country.
