Pistol-packing journalist fends off attack in Manila
The columnist of a Philippine tabloid exchanged gunfire with two attackers before dawn yesterday in the latest of a rash of attacks against journalists, a police spokesman said.

Pablo Hernandez, columnist of the Bulgar (Expose) tabloid reported that he was fired upon by two motorcycle-riding men in a suburb of Manila, Senior Superintendent Leopoldo Bataoil said.

The attackers missed, Bataoil said, adding that "Mr. Hernandez said he was able to fire back but not sure if he hit his attackers."

"The example for all the world's democracies to follow", said aWol at Subic Bay.

Ah-no's cigar making child sweat shop.

1. Is this what O'Reilley meant when he said he was in combat?
Or was he just cowering in a corner while gunfire was exchanged a mile away.

2. 100% proof of America's total control by a lying controlled media who are
controlled by a secret power elite of corporations and NSA agents.

If you do a search on Johnson you get nothing but dozens of these:

I saw a Life Channel type show about the truth and it took me a long time to finally find the truth even on the internet

United States Silver Star
http://www.geocities.com/dco700/USSILVERSTAR.htm which links to:
The story behind LBJ's Silver Star
http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2001/johnson.silver.star/story/storypage.html

Johnson his entire life wore this medal everyday. He bragged about it. He rubbed it during WH press conferences... (I saw all this with facts, documents, clips, interviews on a documentary). Saw the tower log records from Australia on the mission in which he received the Silver Cross... No one (the sheeple) in Amerca even knew he never carried a weapon, never did anything of any kind of military responsibility... The bastard just hung around. Sort of like a mouse hair more than aWol. But in the American Whore Press he was made a hero. The plane he was on never even made it to the mission. The plane got "engine trouble" and turned back to base. The show interviewed what of the crew is still alive and they said they felt nothing was wrong, they just turned back. No other crew memebers received a medal.

What a shameful man to live this lie his entire life. What a shameful slap in the face to all our "not connected" military personel putting their lives on the line for America!
