Manipulation of the Media

I started the thread about the possible elimination of Posse Comitatus, and I'm an US citizen, born and raised. I also consider myself fairly conservative (something that cannot be said for the current administration). Non-US citizens should worry about what goes on here though, it does affect them and at least somebody gives a damn. They may be able to tell you a train is coming, it's your choice to listen or to stick your fingers in your ears while shouting "Nah nah nah nah nah".

However, on this issue, meh. As long as the Pentagon doesn't waste too many resources generating propaganda instead of properly equipping the troops, I suppose they can do what they want. Gung-ho propaganda is nothing new. It would be nice to hear about some of the good things happening in Iraq/Afghanistan, but like all news it should not be taken as straight fact.

Rummy's statement about not losing sleep over anything but bad press... Sounds about right, coming from him.

I'll leave that up to you to decide.
