Just watched "Iraq Confidential with Jesse James" on The Discover Channel. I've been pretty busy the last few months, so I hadn't seen this before, but somebody on another forum tells me it was on a few weeks ago. I'm not a big watcher of "Jesse James" show, but this was a pretty interesting glimpse of "day-to-day-life" of some of our soldiers (mechanics) in Iraq as Jesse tries to give them a little diversion, and support. There were a few comments not totally gung ho, but mostly it was pretty positive, and patriotic, especially at the end. I'd like to know if anybody else sees this or watches it later (on again at 12 pm CDT). Tomorrow being the 4th - might be a reason to stay up. Comments? I don't see it on again through the rest of my guide -- hopefully it will be repeated again if somebody doesn't can it for being "too pro military."
I also particularly liked the scene when Jesse accidentally(?) walks into a hospital ward where insurgents are being treated, and he asks why we would help them. The answer "Because we are Americans".
Maybe we should all contact "Jesse" and give him a big thumbs up! Will try to get an e-mail address for him... _________________ Paul R. |
