    than the hero she was and is. When she confronted the reporter about
    the facts of the situation, the reporter said, "I don't care what you

    about it, bitch."

    Let us not forget that Eason Jordan of CNN, has admitted to, in a NYTimes
    confession, of deliberately hiding information to the public, over the past
    12 years of Saddam's execution of political opponents; so as not to risk CNN
    news expulsion from Iraq. Look at Ted Turner's lionization of Castro. In my
    opinion this casts him (Turner) as merely a rich thug, not unlike Joe
    Kennedy' and his romance with Hitler.
    I summarize with the proposition that being rich and well-positioned, does
    apparently not make one wise. But I suppose the real issue isn't wisdom, but
    power and its pursuits.
