On page 23 of the print WaPo. Didn't make the print version of the NYT, but it is on their wire service page. Couldn't find it at all in the LAT. The press? They don't have an agenda.

#7  Maybe that's why the chose to publish - as opposed to the NYT and LAT - so they could add 7 paragraphs of negative spin.

#6  Typical WaPo - 9 paragraphs in the article, 7 of them negative.

#5  The Nintendo generation doesn't read the NYT, WaPo or LAT. They do however play Xbox and PS2 where the services have been co-producing games which portray an environment without the hollyweird political correctness. Someone has figured how to jump the media divide.

#4  We also know the Reserves and Guard will never go to war! Ha!

This really goes to show our nintendo youth are just as patriotic and honor bound as all other generations.

#3  It's because we all know the war is lost and it will be safe to join the Army again. No wait, it's because the worst economy in 50 years is driving young people into the legions of doom for food and shelter. No wait, it's because the minorities left homeless by hurricane halliburton have been forced by circumstance to join the man.

/pick one....

#2  I did try to read the article, until I had to retch from the spin.

#1  Thanks for the comment, 11A5S, it was the only thing I wanted to know after I read the headline.

So I guess that puts the WaPo at the good end of a bad class.
