"Major combat operations in Iraq have ended."
- President George Bush, May 1, 2003
As we mark the anniversary of when Commander-in-Chief George W. Bush announced that major combat operations in Iraq have ended, I want to urge every to take time out of their busy lives to watch Bill Moyers' brilliant documentary, "Buying the War," which is now airing on PBS (check for times).
"Buying the War" looks at the absolute failure of the media in the lead-up to the invasion of Iraq and how they continue to do a poor job of researching and investigating for actual facts. Moyers slams the press, especially those so called liberal media outlets, for failing to do there job. This is a must watch............

Bill Moyers threatened to come back to broadcasting a few years ago. This broadcast showed why Moyers is so needed and his highlighting the exceptional work of Knight-Ridder (and a few others... Bob Simon) were sadly and sometimes conspicuously absent.

You are the brick! Reading stuff like this written in the way like this is a great pleasure for me.
