More Republican Bullshit

In their ongoing mission to recreate the United States from a federal republic with ample freedoms into a fascist state, the Republican's are up in arms over recent video shot by CNN reporters travelling with U.S. troops in Iraq. Apparently the good folks at CNN did not have the common decency to censor themselves and furthermore had the audacity to release video showing an insurgent sniper attacking U.S. troops. Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif. is of the opinion that the press in the United States should not report on any items or issues that are not pro-American or I guess that do not meet his definition of pro-American.

What kind of bullshit is that? When I watch, read or listen to the news I would like to think that I am going to get impartial reporting, not goverment propaganda. Unfortunately the Republicans think that in 21st century Amerika the flow of information should be restricted, altered and refined so that only their message is going out to the people.

I read the original story on the Oregonian website here---> CNN sniper video
