Remember the New York Time and its enthusiastic warflogging, it's overt participation in the lies that led up to the war in Iraq? Well, gee whiz, this is from an editorial in todays NYT about the disaster in New Orleans:
One lasting lesson that has to be drawn from the Gulf Coast's misery is that from now on, the National Guard must be treated as America's most essential homeland security force, not as some kind of military piggy bank for the Pentagon to raid for long-term overseas missions. America clearly needs a larger active-duty Army. It just as clearly needs a homeland-based National Guard that's fully prepared and ready for any domestic emergency.
Hey, newsflash geniuses...because of your unwillingness to do your job as a free and unbiased media source, we're involved in a war that is making recruiting and retention more difficult and you're calling for an expansion of the regular Army? Only one way that's gonna happen....
D-R-A-F-T.
Well played, Gray Lady. See what playing the whore gets you? You're now a social disease...

I've flamed them for this before. The only reason we need a bigger regular Army is to support the Iraq war, or fight other ones like it.
