Critics Call Radio Hosts' Trip Propaganda Mission

By Kelley Beaucar Vlahos

WASHINGTON — A contingent of conservatives talk radio hosts is headed to Iraq this month on a mission to report "the truth" about the war: American troops are winning, despite headlines to the contrary.

The "Truth Tour" has been pulled together by the conservative Web cast radio group Rightalk.com and Move America Forward, a non-profit conservative group backed by a Republican-linked public relations firm in California.

I haven't read &quot;every&quot; editorial page in the U.S. I have read very few. My blood pressure won't take the leftwing bs anymore. I cannot debunk what Rendell says.

However, day after day they print and report via television what the http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/jacka.gif sses like Durbin, Clinton, Kennedy, Biden, etc. say, with no &quot;editorial comment&quot;. There are no pejorative or spin words used in the blatherings of these morons.

When the president speaks it's never reported, &quot;The president said,&quot; it's always &quot;The president claimed,&quot; which casts doubt about the veracity of what he said. Just one little word can change the whole meaning and intent of a story.

It makes no difference what this trip discovers. The Lefties will toss brickbats at it and the conservatives will love it.

Have Tequilla Ted, Sheets Byrd, or Turbin the Terrible been over there yet? I know madame was for some photo ops but a lot of the service people wouldn't pose with her. Come to think of it, have Howlin' Howie or Hammerin' Harry been over there? They are the harshest critics, after all.

&quot;They have no idea what journalism is, and to pretend they are journalists is laughable,&quot; Beinart said. &quot;You do not achieve victory by not facing reality. I think these are the kinds of people that will lead us to lose there.&quot;

[/QUOTE]

How arrogant of Mr. Beinart to think that others, besides journalists, or his definition of journalists, cannot see and discern the truth. This is the problem with the MSM, they have this &quot;holier than thou&quot; attitude.

Hooray! For these people who are out to report, &quot;And now, the rest of the story!&quot;

What the left is really concerned about is that blog sites will get hold of what this groups says and counteract the lies the left will refute it with.
