The American Expatriate: Unbeknownst to BBC readers...

THE AMERICAN ^REEXPATRIATE

"America is often portrayed as an ignorant, unsophisticated sort of place, full of bible bashers and ruled to a dangerous extent by trashy television, superstition and religious bigotry, a place lacking in respect for evidence based knowledge. I know that is how it is portrayed because I have done my bit to paint that picture..." BBC's Washington correspondent Justin Webb, in a remarkably frank admission of his role in misinforming the British public about America and Americans

Unbeknownst to BBC readers...

Guess who agrees with Dick Cheney and disagrees with her newly famous fellow Democrat, John Murtha?
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that an immediate U.S. withdrawal from Iraq would be "a big mistake."
The New York Democrat said she respects Rep. Jack Murtha, D-Pa., the Vietnam veteran and hawkish ex-Marine who last week called for an immediate troop pullout. But she added: "I think that would cause more problems for us in America."
Don't bother looking to the BBC's website for this information. It, apparently, is only interested in unknown Dems who disingenuously call for "immediate" troop withdrawals from Iraq. High profile Dems who agree with the White House are not, it seems, news that he BBC wants you to know about.
