Unbelievably pathetic and desperate response by shrubco.

1. Whoa - Amazing Kerry Pop-up Ad before the article opened.

Awesome! Well done, quick, effective, and out of the way soon enough that it wasn't annoying.

Whoever did this, they did "a good thing".

I watched the nbc nightly news, they did indeed, report that the weapons were gone when our troops arrived. True or not, I can comprehend what I watched.

I don't like the damn story, but thats what the nightly news reported, the freakin things were gone when we got there. Go to the nbc website and watch it yourself.

If NBC reported that, they are in big trouble for reporting lies.

20. CNN IS MISREPORTING

My letter to them:

WRONG INFORMATION!!
You report:

"NBC News reported that on April 10, 2003, its crew was embedded with the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division when troops arrived at the Al Qaqaa storage facility south of Baghdad."

BUT THE TRUTH AS REPORTED BY JOSH MARSHALL IS:

aside the matter of whether a detachment from the 101st Airborne and an NBC news crew would have been able to make that determination, they weren't the first US troops there.

The first American troops on the scene (from the 3rd Infantry Division) came a week earlier, on April 4th and they found lots of explosives a series of spot checks of the 1100 buildings at the al Qaqaa complex.
