Press lies caused recruitment shortage

Reuters:

Families are discouraging young men and women from enlisting "because of all the negative media that's out there," Sen. James Inhofe (news, bio, voting record), an Oklahoma Republican, said at a U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee hearing.

I'm sure that, after the esteemed senator scratches the surface, he'll find that the reporters are responsible for doctoring intelligence to justify an unnecessary invasion of Iraq, that they're the ones planting roadside bombs in Iraq, and they're probably even the ones behind the wheel in those suicide cars. It might be time to send them to Gitmo for re-education.
