Bozell: Media Must Report the Facts About 'Imposter' Jeff Flake
Media Research Center ^ | August 1, 2017

Posted on 08/02/2017 12:36:17 PM PDT by detective

On Tuesday, August 1, Media Research Center President Brent Bozell issued the following statement: 

On behalf of my late father and my family, I am denouncing Senator Jeff Flake and his new book, dishonestly titled, Conscience of a Conservative.   Since entering the Senate in 2013, Jeff Flake has, time and again, proven he is part of the indulgent hypocrisy in Washington. While he waxes poetically about conservative principles, his Conservative Review Liberty score is an abysmal 53%, also known as: “F”. In 2013, I watched first-hand as Flake refused to sign a letter pledging to defund ObamaCare, among his many betrayals to conservatism. Jeff Flake is neither a conservative nor does he have a conscience.

As every conservative leader knows, my father, L. Brent Bozell, Jr., ghost-wrote Conscience of a Conservative for Barry Goldwater. While the Goldwater Institute may own the rights to the book’s title, neither the organization nor Senator Flake have the right to unjustifiably trade on my father’s work. Conscience of a Conservative is the greatest selling polemic in history, and Senator Flake is trading on its reputation to shamelessly promote himself and disguise his own conservative deficiencies. My father would be appalled to see this fraud as the author of the so-called “sequel,” which it most certainly is not.     The media need to know, when reporting on Senator Flake and his “book,” that the author is a deceiver out for personal and financial gain.  I also call on my conservative brethren to denounce this impostor, who dishonorably claims to speak for conservatism, in the strongest possible terms.

Brent Bozell's father was married to William F. Buckley Jr's sister. Bozell helped found the National Review.

Bozell wrote the book "Conscience of a Conservative" for Barry Goldwater.

Bozell is angry that lying slime ball Sen Jeff Flake is releasing a book titled "Conscience of a Conservative."

Flimsey Grahamnesty has told us they WILL abandon the rule of law and surrender the country with amnesty if we do not remove them from office.

Corker, Hatch, Heller and Flake in 2018

Graham and Alexander in 2020

Why? There is no reason the media is going to go against anyone who is against Trump

Enough of the chicanery and corruption. Let’s start with those up in 2018. Donation$, letters to Editors, social media. Expose these traitorous bastards, starting with FakeFlake.

Boy, they got a host of them

Flake has identified that there is an opening for a new Republican “Maverick” media darling now that Juan McAmnesty is about to croak. He figures that it could be him and is going to play things accordingly.

I think posting a pile of bull excrement on any thread covering Flake is appropriate. Sorry I can’t do it with my current device.

I truly despise Jeff Flake! After he won the nomination to keep Kyl’s seat my name somehow showed up on his mailing list and I was deluged with emails from him. Even so, the guy looked like the real thing as far as being a conservative went. So, I donated...about three times! What an idiot I was. The guy wasn’t in the Senate for 10 minutes before he moved to the left of John McCain. And now he has the audacity to STEAL the title of Barry Goldwater’s book. What in the hell would a snake in the grass, sh*t eating globalist like Jeff Flake know about Conservatives or a conscience???

The GOP leadership is entirely corrupt and will stitch up Flake’s re-election. They did the same with Lying Ryan and Senator Mcshame.

Trump needs and deserves our support but The GOP needs to die.

I will never vote for another GOP again, other than for President Trump in 2020
