"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

CNN.com - U.S., Iraqis�launch raid on insurgent hotbed - Mar 16, 2006

CNN.com - U.S., Iraqis�launch raid on insurgent hotbed - Mar 16, 2006: "About 1,500 Iraqi and American forces stormed into a restive region north of the capital Thursday, searching for insurgents and terrorists, the U.S. military said."

Searching for "insurgents" and "terrorists." Which is which, does CNN know? Haven't all those been defined as "insurgents" by the msm? Where are this terrorists talk coming from?

"The insurgents are suspected in lootings and killings, including the deaths of three Al-Arabiya journalists in Samarra." CNN, are you sure it is "insurgents" that are suspected of the lootings and killings or are you just confused as to which is which? Would using enemy fighters be too "pro-U.S."? I hate to be a stickler, but the msm is the entity that has insisted on the "insurgent" designation. Best to be accurate, no?
