You could always read the AP article yourself,


Are you able to provide a link to the article to which you refer?


Google Afghanistan helicopter Karry Associated Press; 17,100 hits.

Take your pick.


Sure enough:

http://www.startribune.com/nation/15845852.html
Kerry, the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee, said the group
waited for about three hours until a convoy with American troops
took them to Bagram Air Base. There was a perimeter guard and an
F-16 fighter overhead providing cover, he said.

If Kerry's account is accurate, one could infer, that F16s are
equipped to provide cover in all weather conditions. Who knew?

----clip----

The first part was directly paraphrased from the AP article.


If you had so stated I would never have taken you to task.

The second part was based on 30 years in the Army.


I too spent some time in Army.

Trained in:

Infantry.
Engineers.
Field Arty.
Cavalry.
Qualified on Automatic Weapons, '03 & M-1 and 45.
H-19 (Recon) & Huey (C&C)
AAC trainers and Fighters.
Going to Founders Day Dinner this Saturday to commensurate with my
Army buddies that are still alive.

----clip----

If you are going to put your name to patently erroneous data, you
should be prepared to qualify the data or say this is what was
reported and by whom. We would then know you were not setting yourself
up as a expert on what happened thousands of miles away.


You could always read the AP article yourself, then get back to me
on that snide "patently erroneous data" remark.


Why do you think the AP article is factual. 90% of the time where I
have historical knowledge of a subject I find that the media is wrong.
Since they have a history of promulgating falsehoods they are not a
good source of facts unless you like to be led around by your nose.

----clip----


And you can stuff that "since you believe everything in the media or from
the mouths of politicians" remark up your ass.


I find that individuals who have to use cuss words are insecure and
lack the ability to think coherently.

----clip----

It is a good thing you weren't in charge.

Command requires thinking, not emotional outbursts based on wild ass
supposition, such as I didn't read the AP report.


Again you just love to cuss one out. Insecurity at the kindergarten
level.. If you read prior postings you will see that you are the only
one who has demonstrated any emotional outbursts.

And a good day to thee sir.

Take your political agenda and shove it where the sun don't shine.

I reported what the article said.

You are on a soap box spewing attacking the messenger.

FWIW, I am well aware of the general accuracy of the media, however,
unlike you, I attribute it to lazyness and ignornance, not some
giant conspiracy.

Like I give a rat's ass what you think at this point.

If you think "wild ass" is cussing, you didn't spend much time in
the Army.
