Now Playing: Can't understand the "BAD NEWS" policy
I got into my "YAHOO" home page and read some of the news. Of course, the New York Times had this one:

BAGHDAD, Iraq, March 25 — Mohannad al-Azawi had just finished sprinkling food in his bird cages at his pet shop in south Baghdad, when three carloads of gunmen pulled up.
In front of a crowd, he was grabbed by his shirt and driven off.
Mr. Azawi was among the few Sunni Arabs on the block, and, according to witnesses, when a Shiite friend tried to intervene, a gunman stuck a pistol to his head and said, "You want us to blow your brains out, too?"
Mr. Azawi's body was found the next morning at a sewage treatment plant. A slight man who raised nightingales, he had been hogtied, drilled with power tools and shot.
I really don't understand the fantasy that this paper has with death. Anything that goes wrong with the war, they report on like it is supposed to be front page news.....but have you heard or read of them reporting any of the good that is coming from this region? HELL NO!! You haven't, and you probably never will! This paper I think is not capable of saying anything good about the United States. You know, that country that gives them the right to do anything they want? The one they all live in?
I have kept saying that I am sick and tired of Kennedy, and Kerry and that ilk, that keeps trying to destroy the Bush presidency, no matter what it does to this country. That is well known, as I have constantly harped on that here in this blog. But I have for the most part left the press alone. Now I will not.
The press is right to report the bad that is going on over there, but it is completely wrong and out of line when it does not report the good. Our soldiers are doing a lot of good over there, and the people of the region, for the most part, want us there. But of course, those are things you never hear.
I have heard some things, from Rush Limbaugh and also from television of some of the press being called on the carpet for only reporting the bad things. They are so arrogant that they come back and report that things are so bad there that there isn't any good. Do you idiots know what that does to the moral of our troops over there who are fighting to give a people the freedoms that you in the press abuse and they want us there. You never report that.
Why don't you all get off your fat lazy asses and do a little of what FOX is doing, and report both the bad and the good. Is that so damned hard to do?......................................APPARENTLY, IT IS. GOD YOU guys in the press are stupid as Kennedy, Clinton (both of them), Kerry, Gore, Fiengold, Schumer......need I name you all???
This is totally silly how stupid you all think we of the United States are. Stop listening to your drummed up polls, and listen for once to the people.....*the majority of us* , and not the lunatic one or two that have to demonstrate or make jackasses of themselves.
God Bless America, and
God Bless Our troops.
