China remains a significant adversary for the United States, as well as pricipal supplier for WalMart. Joe Katzman of Winds of Change has an excellent article that covers everything about the situation, except maybe the WalMart thing.

One of my favorite thinkers on the theory and application of tactics and strategy employed in World War IV is John Robb. He has an update on the Nigerian situation.

And possibly, just possibly, more important to us engaged in the fight on the Homefront Theatre of Operations: Wretchard of The Belmont Club has posted an article called Center of Gravity

Center of gravity

Secretary Rumsfeld's press conference should be read in its entirety because news accounts based on it have selectively emphasized items which fit the media outlet's particular editorial template. The first part of the news conference is actually an indirect name-calling session between Rumsfeld and members of the press.

Commentary
I know many, if not most, bloggers feel that The Legacy Media are biased against America in general, and this war in particular. Maybe vice versa. Whatever.
Like the Democrats, they are Against. Against the war. Against Bush. Against Judeo-Christian values.
I think some careful reading of the article by Wretchard may provide clues on how to expose The Press and their one-sided reporting. Maybe someone with more time than I have could get access to the transcripts to all these press conferences and post them, or link to them ( silly me, the link was already provided by Wretchard), and by word of blog, everyone else in the blogosphere eventually begins to link to these things and discuss them on their blogs, call in to local and national talk shows, and get a new meme started. Only this meme would have a little staying power and be yet another way of exposing The Press as either naive or willing lapdaogs of our enemies, either way, they are lapdogs.

I guess I have reverted to grade-school name-calling, but if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and smells like a duck, and I call it a duck, am I a name caller?
