Here's the transcript of his speech... notice that he also lashes out at the media and the democrats, but that went unreported. All that was reported was his tirade against the Bush administration.

General Sanchez' words were "An Inconvenient Truth" for the media and for the Democrats.

I read the media reports and then browsed through your link. Quite frankly, it seems like the "liberal media" pretty much summed up what he said. If more emphasis was placed on his criticisms of the Bush administration, it is probably because that a public critique of the president by an ex-general in charge of operations in the Iraqi war zones is particularly newsworthy.

Because they wanted to only put what was bad against Republicans. Democrats and libs are a bunch of communist, neo-nazis who think they are right about everything.

Because the media and the Democrats didn't sell this pointless illegal war like Bush. Hey they may suck too but did they by virtue of their lies be directly responsible for over 3,500 American soldiers deaths? I don't think so. Perspective man.

oh... so a soldier lashing out at dems and the media is news? that happens every day? that's all that would be on the front page every day if that was "news"

soldiers don't lash out at Bush and Co. a lot though.... so that was news...

see the difference...

if something happens every day... it's not news...

if something doesn't happen a lot and it's surprising... it is news...

I saw a story on MSNBC last night about him lashing out at the media. Fine, give me a thumbs down, but it was on there.

Surprise Surprise. The lib media selectively quoted Sanchez and ignored the thrust of his speech.

What an ironic surprise.

The Lib media has no shame.

Just like selective listening disorder (SLD) they have selective reporting disorder (SRD).
