John Kerry&#8217;s apology came late, and with a little B.S. attached, but it&#8217;s still an apology. Soldiers were outraged when John Kerry told them, they were stupid. John Kerry said:  “You know, education…if you make the most of it…if you s...</description>

					<description>&lt;strong&gt;Page One of the NYT, but it ain't Kerry&lt;/strong&gt;

Nary a peep about John Kerry's faux apology (that he now clearly didn't mean) on the front page...or anywhere...in the Old Gray Hag fishwrap. Nope, the front page was dedicated to the homo evangelist in Colorado.</description>

					<description>endo - &lt;i&gt;”Are all of you just going to ignore the fact that &lt;b&gt;the military itself&lt;/b&gt; thinks that the strategy is a failure and the political leadership is compromised?”&lt;/i&gt;

As already pointed out, Military Times is a private enterprise.  By saying, "the military istself", you are implying that the publications are an official spokesman for the military and that is a deception.  It's like reading an editorial piece in Sports Illustrated and claiming it represents the views of all pro sports players.

Did you read through the link if gave you?  They offer a different opinion to the opinions pulished in Military Times.</description>

					<description>Jason, forgive my departing from the post topic…

&lt;i&gt;”TR, did you expect Rumsfeld to agree with the Army Times? In case you forgot, he runs the DoD.”&lt;/i&gt;

I doubt seriously that Rumsfeld responded to the ‘Army Times.’  And why shouldn’t the Pentagon respond to inaccuracies in an editorial, especially when the inaccuracies are printed in a paper whose intended audience is the military?

&lt;i&gt;“SR, if the Army Times is part of the MSM, let’s stop calling the MSM a tool for the Democratic party.”&lt;/i&gt;

It seems the opposite case is made… that Gannet is now stooping to the point of using ‘The Army Times,’ ‘The Navy Times,’ ‘The Marine Corps Times,’ and ‘The Air Force Times’ to circulate an editorial hit piece.

&lt;i&gt;”Are all of you just going to ignore the fact that the military itself thinks that the strategy is a failure and the political leadership is compromised?”&lt;/i&gt;

The military is made up of individuals from all walks of life and all ideologies to include political ideologies.  Although the military voting generally tends to favor the GOP about 70 percent of the time, there are Democrats within the services.  Since the military is not about politics, political alignment is not considered in the selection process for promotions.  The military is no different from any other large organization – there are those who disagree with the mission or execution.  The difference is the active duty military, especially the senior officers, generally do not speak out politically.  The retired generals, some with axes to grind, are free to speak out – just like Wesley Clark.

Using your analogy: I suppose I can view Joe Lieberman’s support for the current policies more indicative of ‘real’ Democratic values - because his views align with mine.

&lt;i&gt;”Then let me repeat my suggestion that the GOP change its mascotte to an ostrich.”&lt;/i&gt;

My suggestion would be for the Democrats to get their mascot’s head out of its own ass!  (No pun intended.)</description>
