There's so many good ones, I couldn't decide what to highlight:
"'I will bet you the best dinner in the gaslight district of San Diego that military action will not last more than a week. Are you willing to take that wager?'
(Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly, 1/29/03)
'It won't take weeks. You know that, professor. Our military machine will crush Iraq in a matter of days and there's no question that it will.'
(Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly, 2/10/03)
'There's no way. There's absolutely no way. They may bomb for a matter of weeks, try to soften them up as they did in Afghanistan. But once the United States and Britain unleash, it's maybe hours. They're going to fold like that.'
(Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly, 2/10/03) "
Use the link above to see all the quotes from the conservtive reporters who lost their objectivity while they egged on the administration. Who says the media is "liberal?" These yay-hoos were all puffing out their chests like a rooster. It wasn't just FOX either - there are quotes from the LA Times, CBS, and even NPR!
But check out NPR's story - using real clips of our leaders various "justifications" for the war.
It's just amazing how many just turned off their brains and blindly followed. I remember hearing that we needed to "trust our leaders, they must have information we can't have."
The only information I believe they had was how much Halliburton was going to make.
