Quote of the Day

"Unless the something spectacularly horrifying happens in the Middle East, like President Ahmedinajad insulting Oprah, nobody is going to notice the shennanigans of the Ayatollahs in the region."---Wretchard at Belmont Club

Belmont Club also links to a WSJ article on UAV's with this snippet:

Col. Chambliss compares the situation to the early decades of manned flight. "You know how fast things went from the end of the First World War to the end of the Second World War, how aviation, the capabilities vastly increased. That's where we're sitting right now. . . . I have no doubt when I'm sitting in my rocking chair, a retired old guy, I will be sitting there going, 'You've got to be kidding me.'"

Wretchard is right on target, unlike the missile. The msm provides info-tainment at best. The journalists, who are either too stupid or lazy to thoroughly research the facts, are more than happy to dumb-down their stories for the likes of an American public that care more about Britney and Hannah Montana than they do of the real threats that lay before us. America needs to wake up. The media needs to report the facts, not just "sell soap". It seems they slant their reporting to push an agenda, one that's not in the best interest of the people.
