A large panel of CNN contributors give reactions and takes blasting President Trump's Fourth of July "Salute to America" event and his speech talking about American and military history.
Former Admiral John Kirby said he was "troubled about the militaristic tone of the whole thing" and mocked President Trump's speech as "essentially 8th-grade history that was fairly sepia-toned and saccharine in its depth and context."
"I could have gotten this off of watching Schoolhouse Rock," Kirby added.
(Remember to watch/read it all.)

It was damned educational too.
And just what is wrong with Schoolhouse Rock?
I would suspect that many who are at or above ‘O-6’ are politicians moreso than defenders of their country. Kirby is a prime example, having held several PR positions in the Administration of pResident Ebola. Of course he is a dummicrat.
They don't much know about HISTORY, but they know about LGBTQXYZ...
Illinois House votes to require LGBT history curriculum be taught in schools
EXCERPT...
Lawmakers in the Illinois state House of Representatives voted Wednesday to approve a plan that includes historical figures in the LGBT civil rights movement in K-12 textbooks, NPR reported.
The measure, which now heads to Gov. J.B. Pritzker's (D) desk for a signature, requires schools to include "the role and contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people in the history of this country and this State" in official textbooks
Nothing was wrong with school house rock. The people over at CNN have to be the most depressed people on the planet. And it’s only going to get worse for them. They better be hiding all the sharp objects over at CNN .
Winning big time.
This is what they say on a network that no one watches.
Which is why I wish someone would bring them back...teach and reach today’s kids
“It was so the dummies Dems could understand, you idgits.”
Seeing how lacking these knuckleheads are in American History, especially since it really isn’t taught in schools anymore, I think many needed a refresher course.
The Donald offered an alternate narrative on a American history that the left hate. Celebrating the role of the military for defending our freedoms was entirely appropriate.
The left’s version of school house rock is slavery, racism, sexism, colonialism and inequality. Myopic and boring.
The left always describe their latest heroes as “rock stars,” so what are they complaining about?
So is “Schoolhouse Rock” the media distributed talking point of the day???
Doubtless with a slant... but if they wanna talk about it, oh will we talk about it!
This from liberals who have dumbed down the education system to idiocracy levels.
If they were journalists over there everything would be fine, but they are instead leftwing activists and Trump for 6 more years will send them to their advanced therapy sessions.
If that’s the case, then bully for him. Schoolhouse Rock was/is excellent.
President Trump educates the Dummyrats and all they do is complain. Sad.
So . . . The CNN people were watching President Trump’s speech on Fox News?
To be fair, a lot of would-be conservatives shun American roots too. Hence come amusing accusations of hijacking conversations by furnishing relevant background information.
