So we've heard that some conservative "talking heads" are going to take up the idea first suggested here and will go to that beach-side resort we all call Iraq!
Well you can see an advance peek at the kind of "in depth" "no holds barred" reporting we can expect to see at the swiftreport blog!!!
I can smell the coconut oil, the soft lapping of the waves on the shore, the beautiful sunsets, accented by the pillars of smoke from car bombs - whoops! That's not on the agenda!!!.
What was it that Ricardo Montalban used to say? Ah, "Smiles, everyone, SMILES!!!"
(of course, there's a poll!!!)
As Tattoo cries: The CAR! THE CAR!!!!!
Let's look at Deanna Swift as she sets the tone:
Well, we're off! As you no doubt know by now, I'll soon be on my way to Baghdad, part of a delegation of conservative journalists fed up with the way that the so-called mainstream media poops all over our country (excuse my French!) and this war we're winning.
And instead of holing up in four-star Baghdad hotels like those other reporters (AKA: the 'Bad News Bears'), our Truth gang will be bringing you success stories straight from the source: U.S. Central Command headquarters inside the exclusive Green Zone.
Luckily, we get a sneak look at this cupcake!
WOW! Talk about dressed for success!
OK, so right off the bat, you admit that you'll be asshole to bellybutton with the No.1 smoke-blowers of the C.P.A. - whoopsie! They're gone, aren't they? I meant US CENTCOM!!!
No, I mean, you'll be roaming the countryside, looking for the good things to report back about Iraq:
I plan on getting out and exploring the countryside a bit during my visit to the freedom front. Tops on my agenda: Fallujah, just a 40 minute bus ride from the Iraqi capital, but a world away from the hustle and bustle of the big city.
Let's take a look at that BUS.
You know, I always love getting away from the big city, but I don't think that this compares.
GOOD for you! I'm sure that regular bus service is back in motion, and that you're pasty, round-eye ass will be welcomed with open arms by the grateful, thankful, LOVING local Iraqis!
How else would they welcome someone who supported clearing that Fallujah of those "pesky" insurrectionists!!!
OK. Enough fun. So we see that not only is the situation on the ground being compared, in a carefree manner, to a vacation in exotic, exciting Iran, with no acknowledgement that the reason we have approx 150,000 troops on the ground (plus assorted members of the "willing" - not updated since March 2003) is because things might not be "entirely stable."
So kudos to their going there in person - and a big black mark for not admitting the truth of the situation. I can't wait to see what amazing reports they have to file.
Bog save us.
