- re: Saddam Segment 1/27/8
The next time you broardcast American propaganda you should advertise it as such and then I wouldn''t have to waist my time tuning in. - Reply to this comment
- This report is like some Orwellian nightmare. How does CBS think it can get away with re-writing history. How can Pelley ask "So why keep the secret?" and suggest Saddam pretended he had WMD''s despite the U.S. at the door.
That''s not what happened at all. Saddam did say there were no WMD''s. He did invite in U.N. inspectors. They were there, inspecting. There was no secret, no pretending. The Bush Administration ignored Saddam''s claims and the U.N. reports. Did you forget the international outrage: Germany, France (freedom fries?), Canada refusing to join the charade? Is this all new to you? Most of us still have our memories intact. This is also the internet age. The news reports are recorded everywhere.
60 Minutes used to be a shining example of journalistic integrity. I can''t believe that such reporters could be this incompetent to get history from only 5 years ago so wrong. The only alternative is that it is an intentional fabrication in the Orwellian sense which is far more scary.
60 Minutes has lost my confidence, respect, and viewership. I can''t stand to watch it turn into a slimy propaganda house. Nothing short of a full public apology for this raping of journalistic integrity could get me back, combined with a follow-up report showing the true events leading up to invasion and why CBS was reporting it so incorrectly.
I can''t imagine how you can call yourself journalists anymore. Does integrity mean nothing to you anymore? - Reply to this comment
- People can say repeatedly that people lied but I looked at that website about the Administration lying and found out something really wild those "nonprofit" Journalists were "paid" to bring these allegations and their points to the forefront!! Journalists have ethics and anytime that a story is "paid" for it is not considered to be ethical journalism...

- the fact that our administration lied to us and got the american people fired up enough to want to go to war....is a war crime in itself... History will give this president a poor rating and the men and women who will be forever changed after spending time in Iraq and losing their brothers and sisters to stupid IED''s that could be prevented with the right equipment and tactics will forever be changed by the affects of war. It is a shameful thing that this war could have been prevented with a bit of intelligence and diplomacy.... Our politicians are so arrogant and poorly educated to know what type of tactics to use against Muslim countries.... just plain ignorance got us into our troubles. And until American people become educated enough to choose intelligent politicians instead or the tallest or the prettiest...we will be in this situation time and time again. Remember war is hell... and always comes with a price. Usually that price is our sons and daughters...

we can''''t believe our military generals,
I have no doubt that Gen. Petraeus, like Gens. Pace, Bergner, Odierno and Sherlock, and like Gen. Westmoreland, are patriotically performing their duties as they see them. The problem is how they see them. It was the politicization of military leadership that led Americans'' confidence in the military to tank so precipitously during the Vietnam War.
