Blogger embedded.
Very interesting things about the blogger who is embedded with the "with Marines along the Syrian border (according to the WP report, though apparently the man caught a ride to Mosul as his latest post at his blog shows)".
One needs to ask who supplied the $30 k for Mr. Roggio's trip. Such a payment could be hidden monetary support for the Bush administration as Roggio's are manly but syrupy sweet paeans to the wonderful war in Iraq effort. (You can find a link to the 4th Rail at online report on the embedded blogger.
The Fourth Rail even still has the donation link up for sending Roggio to Iraq, though the man has been there for some time.
Who is donating? We don't and won't know. Any right wing person or corporation could dump money there to support the president and Republican members of Congress.
Obviously there is a FEC and possibly an IRS issue there with a guy collecting money for a major operation to write pro administration propaganda.
Let's see if any action is taken by the federal government.
Or we could go watch paint dry. We'd probably see faster evidence of action on the paint drying expedition.
Another point here is that Mr. Roggio's post are in English. These are not attempts to influence Iraqi newspapers. In fact their intent is clearly to influence Americans.
Let's revisit what we know of the Lincoln group's efforts to implant propraganda in the Iraqi press at the cost of 300 million taxpayer dollars for little more than a year's work.
Let's repeat that $300 million taxpayer dollars for little more than a year's work.
It has been reported that Dan Rather made $2.5 in his last year at CBS.
So they could have had 120 Dan Rathers for that money.
This is "Your Money", Folks!!
Where is it really going?
Write your Congress people until you find out.
