Not fit for American Television?

Stu Savory reported:

On Thanksgiving Dubya visited some US troops in Iraq for a bare 2 hours, a gesture of thanks or a publicity stunt for the 2004 election campaign? You judge.
One of the funnier remarks was from the Alabama soldier who said on (our) TV : “At Thanksgiving this is the first time I’ve seen that turkey live!”

Now why do you suppose that this didn’t make it to the American public?

Good thing for the soldier: if a Libertine Republican had seen it, there would have been a letter to the Pentagon and disciplinary actions against the poor man for disloyal statements as has happened to other troops in the recent past.

Yes, we support our boys except against the Criminal-in-Chief.
