Reflections on Iraq and the Drive-by-Media

Tony Blankley (press secretary to former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich) takes a great quote from Donald Rumsfeld and gives it an interesting twist:

In Iraq, as military and security conditions continue to improve, American war politics enters one of its stranger moments in our history. Certainly it is historically odd for war reporting to diminish almost to the point of public invisibility -- just as our troops are starting to gain the upper hand. But we are fighting this war with the journalists we have, not the ones we want.
