here the other day that they wouldn't risk special forces deaths for a disillusioned deserter, but since they were going to end the war, a trade would be more acceptable. The Moonie Times as a source though...ugh.

Why is the source listed as the Washington Post but the source is the Washington (Moonie) Times?

Steve,

I assume that you want for us to be informed as to what is occurring in social media and I usually recommend most of your posts, but this is one thread where I wish there was an "unrec" button.

I took some flack last week for posting an AP story about the RLC in New Orleans, but I never believed that anyone on DU would post a link to The Washington Times. I guess that Breitbrat, World Nut Daily and Faux Snooze are going to become acceptable sources for LBN on DU in the future?

Very deceptive post, and certainly not the kind of behavior I would usually associate with this poster. Weird stuff.

I didn't catch it was the TIMES, not the Post.

Happy?

I agree, this was the last thing that I would expect from him--at least without an explanation as to why he was posting it.

Something must be rotten in Omaha.
