Again, thank you, Judy for sending me this:

Thanks Chuck! You are right on the money on this one, and thank you to Judy as well.

Reminds me of a lyric:
"The death of one is a tragedy, the death of one is a tragedy the death of millions is just a statistic." That is what I think about when I read this The media is so biased and looking for a story to sell, instead of doing its duty and giving us the NEWS! Bless those who sacrificed their lives for their country. :'( Peace, Carl D |

What a beutiful post. Point well said. I was reading an article on the 4th of July stating that many many Marines were marching in afganistan during 110+ heat carrying full packs weighing 75 to 100 pounds on their backs. They couldn't carry enough water to satisfy their thirst and lots of water was left behind. Many were dehidrated, passing out, throwing up, etc. from heat but they Marched on in chase of the enemy. It put things really into perspective for me.

Good stuff kids. Unlike MJ, these soldiers are young and have caring people that will miss them for the rest of their lives rather than leeches hoping to cash in on the death of a guy that is as well known as a completely unhinged crackpot as he was a talent.
Cable news has its prioities wrong but then MJ is a helluva cash cow. Ed Murrow was right: TV is too often just lights and wires in a box. Thanks for this. Charlie |
