In a nation where the military is controlled by a civilian government, and has no recourse to public accusations, neither Kennedy, nor Murtha, nor Durbin nor the NY Times had the right to promote such hubris rhetoric. They were trying to disgrace President Bush through denigrating our soldiers on the battlefield. Our system of government has regressed to adolescent politics. We are in a social transition phase, as indicated by the latest Supreme Court ruling, the stupidity of global warming and global recession of U.S. primacy. The upcoming election will determine what we are transitioning toward.

Those foaming at the mouth left wing thought Nazis should hang their heads in shame. But they won't because the truth is irrelevant to them. Their supporters don't and won't demand of them to speak the truth.

your editorial is as usual perfect...yet you will not make your criticism hit home because you refuse to identify these culprits as either the stooges, usually irish liberal or black, for liberal jews... all this mischief continues unabated when liberal jewry maintains the ruse of anonymity that helps it help america's enemies. so if you really want to cut off the legs of this country's worst enemies, start with the liberal jewish media elite. they helped the commies murder sixty plus million eastern euroopean christians...no one will dare to mention THAT holocaust. they destroyed the public school system with their phoney tolerance for all things antiamerican & antichristian and they continue to abet the islamist cause with their incessant war an president bush and his policies. never a peep out of the conservative media or talk radio against liberal jewry. WHY? sad to say, we already know how motivational fear can be in helping the indignant redirect their indignation.

Excellent article. These men and their families were humiliated for serving their country and putting their lives on the line. The war in Iraq has been politicized by the left (Democrats, in general) to discredit the Bush administration and gain power. Haditha is a part of this orchestrated campaign.

Question of the day

White House officials and Senate Democrats met in private three times last week to craft health care legislation. Do you think these discussions should be more public?
