#1 Let me guess, he's ineligible because he paid his taxes?

#3 He was undoubtedly ASKED to withdraw. His personal background and income tax payment history were TOO CLEAN!

#4 I recall with horror and amusement the time Gupta caused "controversy" among "journalists" in Iraq when he - gasp - used his neurosurgeon's expertise to assist a victim of a bombing (I think) while "on the job." A pretty accurate measure of the insanity of the media mindset in the early 21st century.

Remmber Dr. Bob Arnot of MSNBC? He was my favoritest "journalist" - actually, he was 1,000 cuts above most of 'em - he was an MD, spoke Arabic (also a pilot). There was at least one time I was watching his live reports from Iraq in '03 in the middle of the night in the US where he was with a Marine unit entering suburban Baghdad. He was not only providing live war reporting up at the tip of the spear - he was interviewing locals in Arabic, and then assisting with medical referral for some of them, as well as checking on some Marines. Pretty impressive. Of course he was canned and disappeared .....
