"Cheer up, Chicken Little"

Newt Gingrich skewered some folks in USA Today, Thursday:

.... Chicken Little, watching the news 24 hours a day, is thinking a week is too long. After all, Saving Private Ryan took less than three hours. Chicken Little is tired of real reality TV and watching the patriotic, hardworking, dedicated professionals who risk their lives for freedom.
While Chicken Little sits on the couch and complains, his cousins in the media report that 50 destroyed Iraqi tanks to one American tank being damaged is a sign of poor military planning. Similarly, they report that because one convoy delivering supplies to the Third Division out of a hundred was briefly shot at, there must be a serious threat to our supply line....

(Thanks, Jonathan.)
