Anyone see the CBC segment called Fighting Ghosts? What an amazing segment on soldiers in Afghanistan.

I saw that. It was quite good which made very suspicious considering it came from the CBC. I was just waiting for mansbridge's sigh and dismissive glance.



A totalitarian culture treats mere opponents as subversives; a democratic culture treats subversives as mere opponents. The reason is that the latter seeks never to betray its principles, while the former has none to betray.

Nice politicising :roll: If you can't even offer praise where praise is due, then remain a partisan hack like Streaker and Derby.

I saw it. Gives one an idea on how hard it must be to be there, fighting such an irregular war. Good show.

Also, give old Ride a break. We all know he is a hack, but he is one of our favorite hacks. If you met him in a pub you would probably keep buying him his preferred brew, just to keep him talking. Cheers!



The CBC, where the lights are on and someone is home.
