#1 Consider the source. A student from an east coast university called a ROTC member a baby-killer. I am certain it hurt and were I in earshot, the offending student would have gotten an earful from me.

I think it is helpful in such situations to point out how in love our own media are with the armed enemies of the United States, and to help them with the illusion such a political stand will be gainful for them politicially.

If they complain you are questioning their patriotism, ask them to display a little, then we can question it. Otherwise we can't question them about something they do not have.

Let the media jerk off about Abu Ghraib. There is no scandal, but as long as the media can continue to focus in on this and not promote an agenda, they are hosed in November.

#2 Actually, in this day and age - it would probably be a fist meets nose type response. Enough of this "say anything you want, its free speech" type left-wing nasty verbosity. Time to fight back physically starting with that madman Al Gore (ryhmes with Bore).

#3 I think the media can thank Ted Kennedy and Kerry for much of their success.

This is the same kind of BS that Kerry did before.

#4 I believe the standard question used to be "And how many babies did you kill in Vietnam."

The standard answer used to be "No more than I could eat."
