Lt. Mike Zullo’s discussion of the disinformation campaign was very interesting.
Indeed. I am currently in my second reading of Blacklisted By History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and His Fight Against America's Enemies.
Reading it now and watching what has been going on with the Left and the media, it is simply amazing. Same tactics. Same collusion. Same stonewalling.
But the disinformation and obfuscating tactics are EXACTLY the same. Exactly. It is a little discouraging, actually. They got away with it then, and I think they will get away with again.
I listened to the audio at the link provided above, and Arpaio and Zullo are both waiting for some public figure to take this information they have collected and run with it, to be an American Hero and save our country.
You look at what the Left and the Media did to Joseph McCarthy, and they not only killed his reputation (and contributed to his death) they did the equivalent of salting the cropland of his memory so future generations would carry on the tarring of him.
What they did to him was the equivalent of hanging someone from a lamp post with a sign around his neck saying "If you take on any cause against us, this is what will happen to you and your legacy."
I guarantee it. If anyone with any clout picks this up and runs with it, we will see how quickly and aggressively they can find out if this person picks their nose, has ever told an off-color joke or been involved in a DUI (Their inability to find out ANYTHING about Obama notwithstanding)
I apologize, I don't mean to be defeatist or negative. I don't know whether Obama was born in this country or not. The problem I have is that this was not vetted beforehand by either his opponents the media, or the FEC. I am angry and feel cheated as a citizen because of this, and I am angrier that nobody has picked this issue up and FIXED it. And I get the impression that not only do they not WANT to fix it, it makes absolutely no difference anymore, and that bothers me more than anything else.
