Surprisingly, not a bad article, considering who wrote it...but a couple glaring omissions or distortions...

While noting that the Afghani and Iraqi leadership was "democratically elected", which it really wasn't, Ollie forgot to mention that Venezuela's "strongman" is also a democratically elected leader...it's pretty disingenuous to call some "democratic" since we installed and support them, but to leave "democratic" off of someone who actually was democratically elected, but we don't like.

Second, should the media not report the news? Ollie, in your article you're reporting the same stories...are you somehow different than the rest? If one just wants (misplaced) joy and happiness about the various wars and skirmishes going on around the world, just watch Fox...

I appreciate Ollie's sentiment, but anyone who hasn't drank the Kool-Aid will notice the glaring hypocrisies and inconsistencies.

Fish on...
