Dental Journalism
It’s like pulling teeth. But numbers-obsessed wire service is forced to admit it. Numbers aren’t going their way.
If I may be permitted a little yeah-but journalism of my own … yeah, but … the minute numbers spike up, are they going to be as slow about heralding the failure of the surge as they have been about acknowledging that maybe this is working?
It’s just not cricket. But it’s not exactly like they’ve been in the game.

The news is good and I couldn’t be more pleased, but what a revolting turn of events for the surrender monkeys (and I’m not talking about France).
The deaths they report sound more like your run of the mill criminals, rather than “sectarian” violence.

Are there enough crows in the country to provide meal for the MSM or will we have to buy lead-contaminated birds from China?

Thousands of Iraqi Citizens Return Home- No Reacti
At the rate the good news stories are coming from Iraq I am going to have to start doing my good news from Iraq pieces later in the day so I can cover them all in one post.

I bet a donut that half this claimed “sectarian violence” these days is locals just “taking out the trash” when they find some.

This wasn’t supposed to happen. No doubt sales of antacids is spectacular among the people who were counting on wholesale slaughter to sell papers and garner votes.
