music would be a good accompaniment here:

Of course, my favorite part is toward the end when someone shouts it at Cheney on the teevee as he's yammering away about Katrina and "what to do with all of the debris" (the hell with the human toll, of course, but this IS Darth Cheney we're talking about here).

I agree. Engle is usually a trusted reporter Supersedeas Sep 2013 #47

The people of Syria may well be diappointed, he's just reporting, not cheerleading, imho. Little Star Aug 2013 #13

Did you see his reaction? I was completely stunned. I've always admired him greatly but he had me Rowdyboy Aug 2013 #15

No I didn't see that today, I took a nap. But I've never seen him cheer-lead anything before... Little Star Aug 2013 #18

Sorry, we were just watching on MSNBC. I've never seen him say anything CLOSE to this before. Rowdyboy Aug 2013 #20

Sounded out of character to me also. But maybe this time I could be wrong, who knows?.... Little Star Aug 2013 #21

This is not the first clip I saw-he's not quite so angry here but the gist is the same Rowdyboy Aug 2013 #22

Thanks. But he just seems to be reporting what he is seeing and hearing on the ground.... Little Star Aug 2013 #24

In his original response he appeared much angrier, at least in my opinion Rowdyboy Aug 2013 #31

Would you rather we have no war correspondents reporting what they hear & see on the ground?.... Little Star Aug 2013 #26

I didn't say that. polichick Aug 2013 #32

Well it sounded like you were bad mouthing him for doing his job.... Little Star Aug 2013 #38

No worries... polichick Aug 2013 #41

Yes. Jobs & money for the MIC. Little Star Aug 2013 #42

No, he's not. I don't always agree with him but he's not as you characterize. cali Aug 2013 #5

I"ve always liked Mr. Engle's reporting. I bet the folk who de-brief him at mulsh Aug 2013 #10

Yeah, he never, ever, puts his skin in the game. bluedigger Aug 2013 #11

Your kidding right? He has put his life in danger many, many times just to report from the streets. Little Star Aug 2013 #16

I guess I needed the sarcasm smilie. bluedigger Aug 2013 #23

I suck at sarcasm :( sorry. Little Star Aug 2013 #27
