So now that "Iraqi in the street" stuff you quote comes from the DoD, too. Can't trust the truth.
I don't blame you for being upset. There is absolutely no way a thinking person would trust any of those sources you cite and endorse wholesale, in their entirety, without anything resembling a critique.
And yer mad when it's pointed out that at least the smarter ones are being paid. (Hopefully you are, too.)
Some people would experience embarrassment, maybe a bit of shame, might attempt to salvage some impression of intellectual integrity by speaking up for a Free Press.
And then there are conservatives.
This has happened so often it's getting humorous.
