thinkprogress.org — CNN's Baghdad correspondent Michael Ware rebutted Sen. John McCain's statement that Bush's escalation is working. "To suggest that there’s any neighborhood in this city where an American can walk freely is beyond ludicrous. I’d love Sen. McCain to tell me where that neighborhood is and he and I can go for a stroll."

The surge measure in Baghdad has, by early estimates, reduced US military deaths by 60% IN BAGHDAD. The war is still just as bad in other areas of Iraq. However, there is substance to what McCain is saying.<a class="user" href="http://www.kuna.net.kw/NewsAgenciesPublicSite/ArticleDetails.aspx?id=1718307&Language=en">http://www.kuna.net.kw/NewsAgenciesPublicSite/ArticleDetails.aspx?id=1718307&Language=en</a>

people who cry "left wing media outlet" are simply the babbling Bushy who use that as an excuse to continue worshipping at the altar of lies.they wouldnt even know what a left wing media outlet was if FOX NEWS (the most subversive news network on the planet) didnt give em the f**king words to use. They dont like getting caught in LIES, so they just throw the liberal word up there so they dont have to answer for it.Bushies try to create a world for you where there LIES are a matter of Conservative or Liberal, when it is actually a matter of the truth vs a lie. So when ever you hear a BUSH loving scumbag, say you said something liberal, just say thank you, cuz if its in Referrence to Bush they just said you were being truthful.GEORGE BUSH AND HIS JUNKIES ARE A DISGRACE TO THIS NATION...youve lied, youve murdered and youve betrayed TRUTH in this country...not a single one of you can count yourselves as patriots.To any TRUE believers out there, just stop voting....cuz the liberals are kinda Godless, they care about a war but not all the little bs they do...but you definately do NOT want to vote for anyone remotely connected to or supportive of the BUSH adminstration...they have PROFANED Christianity in this nation, they have LIED to the world...they have MURDERED innocent people out of GREED not patriotism...and that scumbag as the nerve to tell Americans that God told him to do it...you think somewhere in there, God would have told him not to lie, or profiteer, or lie, or not to purposefully mismanage a war to give him reasons to stay infefinately.So all of you jackoff who babble about LIberal media....its just the f**king media, your doing nothing but using your SUBVERSION terms to get out of your lie.Im not a LIBERAL, btu I KNOW ONE THING FOR SURE...NOONE should listen to ANYTHING that comes out of the mouth of a scumbag who supports BUSH, they are LIARS and value money and power above ALL ELSE...and they care ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for the TRUTH.Dont worry, if this president ever tries to declare Martial Law...you wont find ANY f**king BushLovers with the balls to walk down the streets unarmed either. Every one of you still babbling about lefty when YOUR the one who f**kED AMERICA OVER deserve to have your teeth knocked down your treasoness f**king throats.As a former soldier in the US Army, dont let me be the first person to tell you, supporting this President goes against everything decent in this country, and it certainly does not support our soldiers. Comparing you f**king idiot to nazis is rediculous....cuz nazis werent americans...that makes you f**king worse cuz you betrayed your country all for a f**king LETTER (R)GO BEAT YOURSELVES!!!for all you liberal who are so in love with busting Bush's balls...Read teh Bible, get some truth in your own life, then next time, maybe we wont get stuck with a Secret f**king Frathouse of assh**es trying to get rich and destroy our countrys stature around the world.

Everytime I've watched Michael Ware on CNN, he has this scared expression on his face and gives an exasperated report from the field... oh wait, from the hotel he's staying in. It's no wonder he makes fun of McCain then... I'm sure the military refuses him to be embedded with them for fear he'll blow their cover with the noise his shaking knees makes! Really, I've seen all the other female reporters there show more bravery than this guy.

McCain used to be the straight talker. Now he's the pandering douche. Bummer for him.

And journalists were not targetted 6-9 month ago? of course they were , as of 13 December 2005 (yes over 16 months ago) 66 journalists killed in Iraq compared to Journalists killed during Vietnam war: 63.You make the same point 5-6 times in an attempt to errect a strawman noone is suggesting that Journalists have a unfettered view of an iraqi's daily life, however the fact is that Bagdad is a more dangerous place not less.Personally I find it pathetic that you some how try blame journalists with the persistence of the insurgency. src: <a class="user" href="http://news.independent.co.uk/world/middle_east/article332814.ece">http://news.independent.co.uk/world/middle_east/article332814.ece</a>

Isnt this the same as what happened in Vietnam, first we claimed we had control of the entire country, then it was the south, then it was some government buildings, then we bailed. Oh americans can walk down the streets of Saigon, well who cares when the entire country has gone to s**t.
