What about the drug war at the Mexican American border??? It has killed more than in Iraq and Afghanistan put together over the last 7 years. Where is the reporting??? You only hear from it only if you live in the Southwestern states. Why don't you try reporting the truth in America. For example the millions who die from drunk drivers and from illegal aliens.Illegal aliens from Central America can drive without applying for a drivers license. The millions of American children who are molested and tortured. The huge drug problem in America and how the government has failed to stop the drug trafficking at the border. What about Obama and his Chicago mob politicians. Why has Obama failed to keep his promises even when he has a Democratic majority in the House and Senate??? The Republicans can't stop him when the Democrats outnumber them yet Obama can't even get help from his own party. Why do criminals have more rights than the innocent? Why do prisons fail to reform criminals? Ex cons continue to return to crime after they are released. If you cannot even begin to report the truth in America keep your mouth shut and stay home. If you cannot be a good investigative reporter than try selling french fries and don't be a hypocrite!!!

I agree with john. I could care less about all the talk recently about Afghanistan, even the staunchest hardliners know that it's a lost cause for everyone but the defense contractors, and there are so many bigger problems closer to home. Our economy is essentially in a state of collapse, with politicians and bankers looting it for all they can, and all we hear from our independent free press is optimistic stories that sound like something from Pravda in the 1930s! Even in Russia, Medvedev and the largely state-owned media are more open and honest about the problems they face!
