Army Captain Burns Matt Lauer
Matt was pushing his lib agenda on his visit to Baghdad Wedsnesday, and attempted to score points on an Army Captain, who smoked him live.
Great comeback!

Nothing like questioning the truthfulness of a soldier protecting your right to be a pompus a-hole.

I like how the captain then tied right in with the recent exposure of reporters getting their 'stories' without leaving the safety of the Green Zone"
"For those of us that have actually had a chance to get out and meet the Iraqi Army and Iraqi police and go on patrols with them, we are very satisfied with the way things are going here..."

That comment just pissed me off.
The fact that one of those soldiers didn't send him home with a microphone up his butt validates who are the true professionals in that video.
