.Attention Media: Please Forget about Afghanistan Again
" wrote this two months ago and upon further review it looks post-able.
The New York Times ran a story today about the 500th American death in Afghanistan. This benchmark is significant because now there are, month-by-month more deaths in Afghanistan than in Iraq. Some council put out a big report on how we are not "winning the war" in Afghanistan, which was also significant because apparantly everyone believed that we were winning... uh... "the war." Whatever that means. Big news.
In the interests of portraying how I feel about all this nonsense, I'm going to do a bit of media journalism of my own, starting right now. Commence dropping of "truth bombs.""
