It's blame it on the media time

Iraq is right on the verge of turning into another Vietnam. There are already signs that the Bush administration is going to scapegoat the media on this. Rumsfeld has come out and criticized the media for exaggerating how bad things are in Iraq. I guarantee you that if we lose in Iraq that the right wingers will try and put the blame on the news media just as they argued that Vietnam could have been won had it not been for all the negative news stories. What surprises me is that Rumsfeld is still playing the same games he's been playing since day one. The only people who believe Rumsfelds' rosey scenarios are the small percentage of people who put absolute faith in President Bush because they, like Bush, believe he was chosen by God to be president.
