The propaganda system that needs to be looked at is the US major networks-fully centrally controlled-one needs a better control of their gag reflex than a toilet in an aids ward to swallow the lies that come out of them.

I challenge anyone to provide me with factually based evidence that shows that even one of Bush''s Policies has been a success. This Administration has failed at everything it has tried to do. Now, we''re caught in a situation where our great-grandchildren will be paying for the blunders of this Administration. Pitiful, just pitiful.

hkjonus.....Actually, you may have a point, since we now have a large number of Army and Air bases estabished in Iraq now, we may not need to have an ally such as Israel, lib

JoeSwat - you christians are so useless and lame. why dont you pull your head out of Bush''s *** long enough to see what the moron is doing to your country. The BS that we NEED Israel as an ally in the ME is a joke. What the hell do we need in the ME? Only one thing, Oil! And Israel has NONE. Go pound sand and ponder reality.

The brainwashed christians believe that defending Israel will ensure zionism, and bring about the rapture. That''''s why they keep electing politicians that support Israel, instead of those that support America''''s safety and security.

How sad for America.

Supporting Syria, Iran is better than supporting Israel.
Posted by zoe2006

Again, you''re comments baffle the mind......where do you get these idiotic comments....You are saying it is better to support 1. Syria, a country that supports terrorists and has fought America in the Iraq war, by sending weaponry accross the border to kill American soldiers and 2. Iran, who is run by a dictator, a country who is an enemy to the U.S. and has also sent weaponry and fighters to kill Americans in the Iraq war.....you say we should support these countries, instead of Israel, a great ally and one of the few friendly countries in the middle-east, Israel which provide defensive buffer against rogue terrorist nations.

Where do you get these ridiculous comments, are you young and uninformed? Do you hate Jews? or did you just pick up some idiotic liberal talking points (Israel bad)....from your discussions?

Register is full of bull ***. Sources inside said this guy was pulling down about $180K (SES Level I) a year plus 21% deferred 401K compensation of US tax payer''s money as the VP of News Operations. Ask yourself, who gets this?? Insiders also say he received a huge signed on bonus when he started Then after Congress demanded his removal, Conniff gave him a sweet deal as an independent consultant, again at the expense of the US tax payers. Saying there was no financial and editorial controls and money was going out the door until he came there. For some one who was at CNN for 20 years, he had no business acumen and wouldn''t know a debit from a credit. This guy has an axe to grin. I wouldn''t hire him to rake my back yard or pick up leaves.

Aligning with a nation because it is ''right with the gods'' is archaic and foolhardy. This, of course, makes it OK with Bu$h and his power-blinded followers. History has, and will continue to prove the error of this course of action.
By the way, what color panties was Britney wearig today?

When''s America going to get credible, professional, journalists; seems like all we have here are corporate propaganda machines working to convince us that the most important news of the day is who won American Idol or what color panties Brittany Spears is wearing.

I AM TIRED OF MY CHILDREN AND MY STUDENTS HAVING TO GO TO THE MIDDLE EAST AND FIGHT FOR A COUNTRY THAT AMERICA GIVES 30 BILLION TAX DOLLARS A YEAR IN MILITARY AID TO....

GOOD THING IS THAT AIPAC CANT TOUCH OBAMA AND THAT SCARES THE BUSHIT OUTTA THEM!

MAYBE NOW AMERICA WILL GET A MORE REALISTIC AND EQUITABLE FORIEN POLICY!

I thought those who watched 60 Minutes were a tad above the intellectual level of the average American.

After reading the remarks posted here, it seems that the morons have for some reason accidentally tuned in to the show.

Why do weak, limp-wristed, ineffective Gentiles like yourself always blame Jews for their low status in society instead of blaming themselves?

Blue Dastard:

If you don''t like what U.S. politicians are doing and believe our Government is controlled by Jews, vote them out of office.

Jewish-Americans are outnumbered 50-to-1 at the ballot box by Gentile-Americans, too.

Blue Dastard:

I''ll repeat what I just said.

Gentile-Americans outnumber Jewish-Americans by about 50-to-1.

Gentile-Americans outnumber all Jews by about 20-to-1.

Gentiles outnumber Jews by about 400-to-1.

So, if Jews are controlling the U.S. media, as you claim, you have defeated your own argument and have proved just how weak, limp-wristed and ineffective Gentiles like you are.
