The media criticizes (slanders) the military for being too brutal. What they really hate the military for is being patriotic, but they don't dare to say (reveal) that.

I feel so naive. I had no idea there was a Pulitzer Prize for apeing the totalitarian, rabidly anti-American and Jew-hating Arab press, and come to find there is no other kind.

Horsey is an appropriate name, even if misspelled.

Yes, the "Jesusland" accents are precious, as are the faces of the wicked, Moslem-hating American soldiers. They look, to me at least, kinda like gorillas.

(Hmmm, makes me think of the Islamofacists calling Jews and Christians, "Apes and pigs." Gee, Mr. Horsey, you spreading a little taqqiya here?)

BTW: 53% of Washington's workforce is miliatry. We are not an employer friendly state here, either. So we're just shooting ourselves in the foot.
Common sense isn't important here either.

Knuckle-draggers! That's the US military (yes: sarc). At least that's the image the media wants to protray. Ted Rall always shows the pres. as vampire-like, and Horsey shows the military as troglodites.

China endorses Uzbekistan crackdown

TASHKENT, Uzbekistan — Making his first trip abroad since a bloody crackdown on protesters, Uzbek President Islam Karimov left yesterday on a visit to China, which has provided a rare note of support for the authoritarian Central Asian leader.

Karimov, who has rebuffed international calls for an independent inquiry into the May 13 bloodshed, apparently looked to his trip to underline that China is on his side. Yesterday, Beijing said it "firmly" backed his actions in crushing anti-government demonstrators.

China is eager to tap into Central Asia's energy resources, and it has watched warily since the United States deployed troops to the region, including at an Uzbek base, after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

Beijing also wants stability in the former Soviet states of Central Asia, a region that China — like Russia — considers a tinderbox of Islamic militancy that could spread to its own territory.

Am waiting to see what cartoon Horsey will crank out of this one.

Hey, this guy must be good, he won the Pullet Surprise!

See the cartoons that won David Horsey and the P-I the 2003 Pulitzer Prize for editorial cartooning.

Here's what that loser had to say after I e-mailed him about his lame cartoon:

" As reported by the New York Times last week, the United States Army’s own criminal investigation has revealed numerous instances of torture, some leading to deaths, committed by military interrogation units in Afghanistan. The report led the president of Afghanistan to demand that his government be given control over Afghani prisoners (a demand that was rejected by President Bush on Monday). Several other investigations carried out by the U.S. government and the Red Cross also have revealed instances of torture, death and affronts to Muslim cultural practices committed by interrogation units in Afghanistan, Iraq and, to a lesser degree, at Guantanamo Bay.
I am not making this stuff up. The mainstream press is not making this stuff up. It is real and is of great concern to our military. I should think it would be of concern to anyone who cares about the image of America in the world. It is unfathomable to me that folks who claim to believe in American values get upset about a poorly–sourced item in Newsweek or a cartoon that is almost a literal interpretation of the facts yet seem to be unconcerned about torture being perpetrated in their name.
I believe a true patriot is one who loves his country enough to call to account those who shame the flag by despicable actions that in no way reflect the guiding principles of this republic. This is not a liberal idea, a radical idea or a treasonous idea. It is, in fact, a rather traditional, all-American idea. Making excuses for torture is common practice in banana republics and authoritarian regimes, but it is alien and antithetical to our constitutional democracy.

David Horsey

So I countered his reply with this:

As reported by the New York Times last week, the United States Army’s own criminal investigation has revealed numerous instances of torture, some leading to deaths, committed by military interrogation units in Afghanistan.

It's not as if The New York Times blatantly lied to us all before and employed a staff of story fabricators, Dave.

This is an example of Hitler's "big lie" in action. If you say America is torturing prisoners enough times, it becomes the "reality". Part of the "narrative". The "greater truth" which is "accurate" even if evidence is fake. It makes me sick how lies and slander are working to take down the most beneficent nation in the history of the world.

Ah yes, the election's over so the Democrats no longer have to suffer through "taking one for the team" by not recoiling in horror at the sight of the flag, and not spitting on our troops whenever possible. Since that was no fun AND didn't help them win, might as well go with what they know. Although officially, they are still "patriots" (I think disagreeing with them may still qualify as "questioning their patriotism") who "support our troops."

Kerriolanus blamed Dubbia for the mess in Mesopotamia -- the costly war against the Saddamites -- and demanded that the consul acknowledge his huge blunders.

KINSHASA (Reuters) - The United Nations said on Wednesday it was wary of reacting too hastily to reports militia fighters shot or hacked to death 18 people in eastern Congo as it did not want to endanger the lives of peacekeepers.

The interim governor of Congo's South Kivu province said on Tuesday 18 people were killed, many more injured and about 50 kidnapped and hauled off into the forest during an attack on a string of villages northwest of the town Bukavu.

"We can't put the lives of peacekeepers at risk on the basis of unreliable information. We need to find out who was involved and how we can react," said Thierry Provendier, military spokesman for the U.N. mission in Democratic Republic of Congo.

we also have to see if there are adolescent females involved that we can exploit.

#87 Addedndum Linda K. Foley -- Elected President of The Newspaper Guild/CWA, AFL-CIO, CLC, in 1995 and was sworn in as a Vice President of the Communications Workers of America, AFL-CIO, CLC, in 1997. She was the first woman in the 60-plus year history of the Guild to hold the office. She was re-elected in 1997, 1999 and again in 2002.

Summary: While speaking at the National Conference For Media Reform Ms. Foley made this statement:

"Journalists, by the way, are not just being targeted verbally or, ah, politically. They are also being targeted for real, um, in places like Iraq. What outrages me as a representative of journalists is that there's not more outrage about the number, and the brutality and the cavalier nature of the US military toward the killing of journalists in Iraq. I think it's just a scandal."

"They target and kill journalists from other other countries, particularly Arab countries like Al Jazeera, for example. They actually target them and blow up their studios with impunity."

May 19, 2005

Summary: Linda K Foley responds in an article written and published on Editor and Publisher

Foley told E&P Thursday that her words were taken out of context by critics and said her original intent was to discuss how journalists are often scapegoated for their coverage. "This was almost an aside," she said. "But it is true that hundreds of journalists are killed around the world, and many have been killed in Iraq."

When asked if she believed U.S. troops had targeted journalists in Iraq, she said, "I was careful of not saying troops, I said U.S. military. Could I have said it differently? There are 100 different ways of saying this, but I'm not sure they would have appeased the right."

May 24th

Summary: An article written by Thomas Lipscomb for the Chicago Sun-Times found some pertinent quotes.

Foley's friend is rather puzzled by her comments.

Richard J. Roth, an old friend of Foley's, is senior associate dean at Northwestern University's journalism school, where Foley is on the board of advisers. Roth said that her statement is "a real puzzler."

"It's beyond my ken that citizen soldiers, my brothers and others in uniform, would target journalists, men and women armed with little more than a pencil. Could it be true? Well, I suppose it could be, but it doesn't square with the rest of what I read."

Air Force General Thomas McInerney was, "frankly astonished."

"It may be legitimate to investigate whether there may or may not have been an incident in which U.S. troops have targeted journalists, but there is no question at this point that major media figures are targeting the men and women of the United States military in Iraq, repeatedly and with no evidence," he said.

I think most conservatives will sit the election out, and Hillary will win by default. Why should conservatives vote when the choices are a liberal Republican versus a liberal Democrat?

The other theory is that McCain knows he will never be the Republican nominee, and so is dedicating the rest of his career to destroying conservatives as payback for his defeat in 2000.

The Minneapolis Star-Tribune (aka Red Star Tribune) occasionally runs similiar ones. They really went after our Vietnam Vets last fall.

#117, Murqtaad. All in the spirit of good fun at the expense of the fourth column-fifth estate and the Triple Ls they incestuously breed with.

In the world according to David Horsey and his LLL brethren,

1. The U.S. is the enemy of world peace.
2. Israel is the enemy of peace in the ME
3. The U.S. military are murderous, evil plotters who delight in torture and death (unlike the jihadist who are simply victims of U.S. capitolism; and that they are the peace loving "freedom fighters", who in their beliefs from Koranic lexicons of truth, are merely justifiedly surviving the "Evil Monsters of the West")

Nice site!
re: Batboy. Great minds, etc...

I'll vote for Hillary, if it comes to it. She would be far less dangerous than McCain because conservatives will be in a better position to oppose her.

Good point. She would give conservatives a rallying cry.

Also I think she would govern really bad and really good at the same time.

Like Willie, she'll roll over for a conservative cause if she thinks it's popular at the time.

Like a good liberal though, she'll do really nasty things also, which would give the opposition good material.

"They totally fail to understand that the Iraqi people have been freed from a real monster. Saddam Hussein tortured, gassed, murdered, raped, pillaged and otherwise brutalized his countrymen for decades!"

The left is more than happy to be up in front of the cameras on Veterans Day, Memorial Day, etc., with the American flag waving in the background, proclaiming their "support" for American troops.

The rest of the year, however, their actions betray their true feelings of distrust, contempt, and desire for failure for our men and women in the armed forces.

They are hypocrites, wrapping themselves in a pious and false patriotism.

Is it just me or are all of these "cartoonists" the same guy operating under diff't aliases?

Its all the same guy, right?

Or just the same "mind"

Here's the earliest I've so far found the source for the Boston Globe's apparent coverage of alleged US rapes of Iraqi women.

And there are questions that the photos offered as "proof" are in fact from porn sites:

And Horsey has not committed treason here?

Section 3. Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court.

[Link: www.law.cornell.edu...]

It's not that the left and their propoganda wing -- the mainstream media -- don't love America. They do. They just love France and every Arab and thrid world shit-hole a whole lot more, and if America would only give them what they want they could be loved as much.

Kind of OT, but not really since the topic is media. Get out the violens:

NY Times/Boston Globe announce layoffs

I'd vote McCain- yes, he is very liberal compared to real Republicans, although not as bad as the Northeast RINOs (Snowe, Specter, Chaffee) and unlike some people who spent the 1960s writing academic papers comparing heterosexual marriage to chattel slavery, McCain was in a POW camp in Hanoi.

Jean Francois Qerie wanted McCain as his VP on the ticket in 2004, and probably would have won if he had gotten him. McCain isn't a good choice, but compared to the Stalinist Senator from Illinois er, Arkansas I mean, New York, he is the second coming of George Washington.

david horsey is but another sick example of the liberal termites relentlessly gnawing at the foundation of freedom and democracy from berzerkely to boston.

We bewildered, patriotic Conservatives are on the outside peering in; desperately trying to understand the minds of these squirming, fetid maggots who would cheerfully destroy their proud heritage and Western civilization itself.

But to truly comprehend the decadent leftist world view, it helps to have been once been one, as was the brilliant Benjamin Kerstein. He describes his journey from the Dark Side in a wonderful essay entitled My Road To Damascus.

...
So I began too to see deeper flaws in those sureties I had so long accepted. I began to sense, or perhaps at last to admit to, inherent contradictions at work in the machine in which I had once placed so much faith. The leftist catechism denounced the United States government as inherently corrupted and beyond repair, and the solution had been to hand massive swaths of the American society and economy over to the control and regulation of the state; in other words, the United States government. It extolled civil liberties but proposed a collectivist creed which fundamentally negated the individual. It claimed to oppose concentrated, monopoly power but proposed to concentrate it to a degree unprecedented in American history. There seemed no connection whatever between these ambitions, and I began to suspect that the entire formulation was ultimately nothing more than an expression of the will to power; that the first had been concocted merely to enable the second.

...
It is not mere armchair psychology to see radical politics, in fact all politics which sees the world as inherently flawed and in need of overturning, as, in truth, the cry of unhappy and angry people; people for whom politics has become a desperate attempt to satiate a pain which is, in fact, deeply personal and fundamentally non-political; an attempt at indirect expresson of an alienation which was, in fact, not from society but from the people closest to them, and perhaps even from themselves.
...

All this controversey about the prisoners is a no brainer. Just change the rules of engagement.

Good shootin!

I believe a true patriot is one who loves his country enough to call to account those who shame the flag by despicable actions that in no way reflect the guiding principles of this republic. This is not a liberal idea, a radical idea or a treasonous idea. It is, in fact, a rather traditional, all-American idea. Making excuses for torture is common practice in banana republics and authoritarian regimes, but it is alien and antithetical to our constitutional democracy.

I've got some bad news for Horseysass. I'm just fine with the idea that our boys and girls smack jihadis around. I hope they insult them. I home they humiliate them. I hope they degrade them. None of that is unAmerican. None of it is unpatriotic. In fact, it wasn't that long ago that exactly that we treated some of the most patriotic of Americans that way...in BOOT CAMP!

This is a war, retard. If we break people on the other side, it's a plus, not something to be ashamed of.

This republic was founded on the idea that there are things worth fighting for. This is just part of that fight. So shaddap, pull your pants up and get a real job. Meanwhile, let our professionals do what they do best. They may not be able to draw, but God help us if we had to depend on the likes of your to protect our interests. You should cover topics that you actually understand, like Fwance.

Pussy.

Oh BTW, guess what news program is scheduling another "tribute" for the fallen in Iraq...

Nightline to broadcast a roll call of U.S. war dead

The Memorial Day special, titled "The Fallen," will air on May 30, and "Nightline" will be extended from its usual 30 minute broadcast to about 45 minutes to allow time for all the names to be read, ABC said.

Many of the photos are being provided by the Military Times Media Group, which publishes a newspaper for each branch of the U.S. armed services.

"'The Fallen' is about the men and women who have died in our names in Iraq and Afghanistan," Koppel said in a statement. "We owe it to these men and women who have died in the cause of freedom that we remember them with honor."

Yeah, right. You want to "honor" them. Despicable.

However, If your ever lucky enough to meet this asshole. have fun.

Horsey? More like horse's @$$. I bet he gets a kickback from Al Jazeera every other week.

Yes.

When I want incisive, informed, intelligent discourse on international affairs I go straight to Horsey.

And when I need advice on personal and spiritual matters, I consult the Family Circus.

Sometimes, I will seek philosophical enlightenment from the Wizard of Id.

Going to a cartoonist for insightful political commentary is like going to Priest for sex tips.

Apply the same vitriol and hatred Horse's @$$ has for the military to that of radical Muslims who have demonstrated far more murderous intentions and actions against truly innocent people. It wouldn't be long before he would have his Horsey head end up in someone's bed a la "Animal House." I wonder what he would then think of Gitmo "torture" of bona fide terrorist scum? Nothing to lose your head over, right Horsey? Dirtbag.

The Kerstein article is interesting. But I was dismayed to see that he STILL makes no defense of our great and good country's history, so viciously slandered and distorted by the Leftists.

He needs to talk with David Horowitz, who's waked up all the way.

But his portrait of Boston schooling is hair-raising. No wonder they keep re-electing Kerroid and Kennedy. Sounds like the Komintern.

#166 Rayra:

Incessant screeching about the Nuclear Sub base across the bay.

My nieces' daddy was a missile tech working there while they was growin' up. Used to come home from school with tales of major smackdowns on watermelon teachers who know shit from shinola about the dreaded nucular radiation! Damn near ruptured a gut on numerous occasions. Worse, they both learned at an early age the value of rhetoric-at nine years old one commented on Ross Perot's campaign speechifying that he talked a lot, but didn't say anything. Like shooting salmon in a bathtub.

#150 from your link

"It is unfair to say that I was at one point a radical leftist; it is more accurate to say I was born into it. My family and the Boston suburb in which I grew up were ferociously liberal, and the public schools I attended subscribed to the rubric of what might be termed the politically correct, and did so, moreover, in a manner which rendered it more catechism than ideology.

"Liberalism in its post-Vietnam form, a kind of quasi-pacifist libertarian socialism shot through with a ferocious strain of racialism, was in every way our state religion. Quite naturally, I adhered strenuously to the most radical tenets of this religion; it is difficult for me to see how I could have done otherwise. Though it pains me, I feel that I must be honest here about how I felt regarding my country, and indeed, the very idea of a free society at the time; for the memory of my youthful fanaticism informs my own concerns about the implications of leftist thought and ideology on an elemental level. I think it is not an exaggeration to say that it may be the single most important factor at work.

"My ideas at the time, like those of all young people, were vague and unformed, but were raw in their emotion and clear in their essential worldview. In thinking of it, I recall Albert Camus's remark that no one has ever become a communist because of reading Marx, "first they convert," he said, "then they read the scriptures." In keeping with this truism, mine was less a systemic pattern of thought than a series of accepted axioms: I believed, first and foremost, that the United States was an irreparably corrupt and wicked society, founded on racism, consolidated through genocide, perpetuated through oppression at home and tyrannical imperialism abroad, and fueled by a psychotic machine capitalism which was, through its environmental destruction and cultural hegemony, destroying the world itself.

"In describing these tenets, I have neither exagerrated nor engaged in unduly hyperbolic rhetoric. Nor should they be taken as shallow or amorphous resentments. I believed in them quite literally, and not only that, I took them as a catalytic force, as indisputable proof that major, perhaps revolutionary changes would be necessary to redeem the United States from the depths to which it had fallen, if indeed the redemption of a nation so historically cursed and so perversely manifested in the present could, in fact, be redeemed. I believed myself enjoined to do something, to engage in the struggle to bring about these great and inevitable changes. There is no question, however, that while these catechisms enobled my sense of myself, they also made me ferociously intolerant of the opinions and even the humanity of other people."

Leftism as a quasi-religion, grossly inimical to our country.

IOW, THIS is how Horsey and his ilk can draw such cartoons. They really BELIEVE we're all evil, our country is evil, and anyone who attacks or kills us is justified.

MAD Magazine...that's it.

Horsey reminded me of a certain style of cartoon, it just dawned on me.

Adolescent.

Such a skilled illustrator. Such a master of geo-political strategy. Must be positioning himself for a run at the '08 Pulitzer Prize.

Here's Horsey's bio:

Horsey received a BA in Communications from the University of Washington where he was editor of the student newspaper, The Daily. As a Rotary Foundation Scholar, Horsey earned an MA in International Relations from the University of Kent at Canterbury (U.K.). He has been named as one of the 100 most notable alumni of the University of Washington in the 20th Century and is a member of the advisory board for the UW College of Arts and Sciences.

So, you trogdolytes realize you are daring to critise one of your betters. :)

Does it surprise any of you that the Seattle PI is suffering a decline in sales?
The coverage they have given to the scandal that is our Governor's election is beyond a fantasy.
Because the final "winner" was a Democrat, they continue to report business as usual.
Mr. Horsesass must think that reaction to the Newsweek article was not good enough.
Now he is providing the enemy with a "visual aid". Just in case they can't read.
This "cartoon" is not even clever. Easy for him to bash America while he lives in an area protected by all five branches of our military.
A letter to the PI will be forthcoming, for whatever good thay may do.

If any of our lefty cartoonists were living in the utopian Islamic caliphate, they wouldn't be drawing anything, let alone political cartoons. Salafi/Wahhabi (or as they call it, "pure") Islam absolutely prohibits the depiction of living things as blasphemous (because imitative of Allah's creative ability without bestowing life) and idolatrous. But hey, in this country not every "artist" can get an NEA grant; therefore we're just as repressive as they are...

Maybe, but he's still an ass.

A friend of mine won the Pulitzer for investigative reporting.

I think hers, as are many, was well deserved. (I got the same scoop, but for a much smaller paper. AUGH!)

The problem is the Columbia School of Journalism, whose journal still won't admit that the Rathergate documents are FAKES.

They are simply too liberal to get the job done.

Blackfive.net has launched a new website called mediaslander.com and has sounded the clarion call to milbloggers and all other good americans to put a spotlight on the media abuse and derision of our military. I dropped a link to Horsey's ass's "cartoon" there. Mr. Ed has no idea of the shit storm coming his way.

He has been named as one of the 100 most notable alumni of the University of Washington in the 20th Century and is a member of the advisory board for the UW College of Arts and Sciences.

If this fellow is one of the 100 most notable alumni from the Univ of Washington... sad... so sad... when Universities rot from within... and the product they produce is this guy...

Ironically this person does not have one ounce of feeling for any Iraqis, he merely uses them for his one man Talent Show... he reminds me of the French Fops who wore powdered wigs and fake moles, before they were led off to the guillotines by the starving peasants..

I strongly disagree!

Senator McCain is everything we HATE in politcians...self-serving, unprincipled, duplicitous. Yes, these describe Hillary as well, but more people see the truth about her than see the truth about McCain. There is danger in the devil we don't know.

I thank John McCain for his service in Vietnam. It was noble and heroic (would that he display those traits today) but his past sacrifice doesn't buy him the White House in 08.

I stand corrected. He really is free to spout BS because he is protected. I'll probably see him outside the gate protesting the military as I go to work.

The torture rooms do not exist in American camps. He is obviously confused. That was Saddam's torture and rape rooms.

I would personally strip all of these bastards of the american citizenship and deport them to an islamic state,within 24 hours,no due process.
They wouldn`t last more than a few hours over there,before being beheaded by their good islamic friends.

Charles, Have you seen Horsey's response to a letter from an angry reader over at Sound Politics?

Quote from Horsy's letter:

It is unfathomable to me that folks who claim to believe in American values get upset about a poorly–sourced item in Newsweek or a cartoon that is almost a literal interpretation of the facts yet seem to be unconcerned about torture being perpetrated in their name.

#196 Gordon

Any comment, Charles?

Why should he comment on something a terrorist said? They are trained to lie like this as you have been told before.

Repeating myself from another thread---the article merely states that a prisoner accuses his jailers of flushing a Koran; and his accusation appears in an FBI report, which indicates that America was looking into possible abuse cases there.

I dont know about Charles, but I have a comment for you Gordon. You seem to know little about the engineering of plumbing fixtures and dont realize that it would be virtually impossible to flush a book down a toilet. On the other hand, shoving a Koran up your ass would be easy since you have stretched the opening with your head for years. If you had enough light you could read it and write a critique. Look for the parts where you get extra points for reading the Koran under what for others would be difficult circumstances. You may be one of Allahs special chosen children Gordon, if you take the time to find out be sure to let us know.

I know and approve of free speech. It is a proud tradition and it WAS PAID FOR by the lives of thousands of Americans. It was NOT paid for by scumbags like Horsey. People like him and his ILK are merely riding along because no one will step up and condemn his views in the National Media. His kind bear no responsibility for what they say and the small part of the redidents of the US and free nations are allowed to stand unopposed by political parties seeking to regain power and continue to reap its benefits because no one will oppose them for fear of "offending" them. I now from reading this Blog and others that there many who DO oppose them but our GOP leaders do not wish to fight them on their own territory. Does the name Frist come to mind, among others?

I'm starting to understand the Left-overs: sensible people ignore them so they become more shrill to get our attention: then they are further ignored because they are shrill and irrational, so they become...more shrill and irrational to get our attention and then they are further ignored, etc. I have been puzzling over Howard Dean's ever more bizarre behavior and until I subject it to this formula, and it seems to work. Its almost as if they WANT to lose elections. What could the delightfully named cartoonist David Horsey have in mind with this demagoguery? That he would change anyone's mind? Better become more shrill and irrational.

#198 TalkinKamel: The FBI guy seemed to think the story was pretty credible.

And I am quite happy our government was, and is, investigating this matter.

Well if you follow pulitzer Horsey he has a definite agenda. He does present both sides sometimes. But definitely slants one way to teach a lesson to one group. He tries to entertain liberals and educate conservatives. Based on his seattle colored glasses. I doubt he can see the arguement from the other side.
