But I know well enough that you don't smear the hard job that our troops are doing over there.
The news people have sold there soul for ratings. Why else would they have thirty helicopters chasing the ambulance that took Britney Spears to the hospital, but won't show that nut Phelps getting took to court for harassing our slain troops' families at their funerals?
