In Country With Our Heroes


Hmmmmm wonder why our MSN missed all these things going on. There is such great news to report about our troops and how the war is going. And the Media is working overtime NOT to tell us about it. --- Wild Thing


US Army Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System fires a 227 mm rocket at a building that terrorists were using to store explosives in the open desert near the northern Iraqi city of Bayji.

Let's face it.......the news media wouldn't know "good" news if it bit them in the A**!!!!! It is so sad that all they can concentrate on is the negative events going on in the world. That's one reason I don't read the paper as much as I used to.......it is so depressing!!! I only read it to try to keep on current events but with the reporters being so biased to the Liberal bunch of idiots, you can't trust the news to be accurate anymore. Thank God there are sites such as this one that still believes in truth, honor, and God!!!! Thanks so much WT for developing this site!!!!!! Hope everyone had a very Happy New Year!!!!!!!

Ditto to John's statement.

WT, you do more in a week to spread news of American/Coalition success than the entire MSM does in a month. There are other sources of good news, but they also are almost all Internet based and not newstand or tv based. Thank You WT for your research and Thank You to the other good sources such as milblogs and patriotic citizens with blogs for providing the growing base of truth in our still mostly free America.

Those two gentlemen above couldn't have said it any better, thank you WT.

Unfortunately, the MSM knows the difference between good and bad news. If George Bush or Republicans are involved it is bad news. If a Democrat is President then the same news miracuously becomes good news and worth reporting.

Neither Clinton nor Obama would commit to getting all troops out of Iraq after four years as President. So, if either one of them makes it to the White House, the MSM will start reporting all the military successes of the troops including helping the civilian population in Iraq as positive changes and achievement of the new Democrat President.

WT, add my thanks to all of the above. You have a sincere approach with the many items in your blog showing the positive, helping, and patriotic side of our military and their families.

Jack thank you, I just get angry at our media for how they are. It is harder now for the media to lie like that did during the Vietnam War because of the internet and the milblogs and because of you and others too that put the truth out there.
