Depressing
The media will never stop their pathetic shilling for the war.
To add more thoughts on this, I think the key point here is NOT that O'Hanlon and Pollack haven't been critical of the Bush administration's handling of the war-- because the two have given at least lip-service to the idea that the Bush administration bungled the war. And I have to say, Glenn Greenwald and ThinkProgress, to name two sites, seem to ignore this point for their own purposes.
Rather the depressing point for me is how these two are given ample attention from the media to further sell the war, when these two have promoted the war from the very beginning-- and still the media sells these people to the public as war critics.
What is further depressing is that the anti-war position is never given comparable time.

And your take on the Surge is based on.....what?
who cares 12:49!
why don't you instead dwell on the newton's 3rd law... post?
it is much more revealing and relevant.
but maybe that is why you choose to avoid such?
^h.
"""the media sells these people to the public as war critics."""
and there is the rub...
these people ("anti-war" personages) who are in reality supporters and/or even apologists for the PTB war-gang regime are easily put in their place and made to look foolish thus negating the REAL anti-war crowd who is never even heard from in the first place.
psy-op from top to bottom.
unfortunately some innocent people pay a truly horrible price for other people's evil greed.
Hey h, you little shit.
Fuck you, asswipe.
wow nice rebuttal @2:42 - comments like that seem to the gist of your side's logic.
i'm afraid that you seem to have brought your marble brain to a bowling alley.
in short; that's all you got.
why is that?
^h.
