I figured after our discussion following Rich's article last week, I would ping you.
AtlanticFriend...please note that there is a paragraph in there about the French. But, I think that you will note Mr. Galen is poking fun at the French, more than attacking them. Looking back at many of Mr. Galen's columns, he seems to poke fun at the French since the situation in the UN during the buildup to the War in Iraq.
I can't speak for him, but it seems that he is doing it more to "get a rise" out of people, more than being hurtful.
Anyway...enjoy the article.
The elite NY Dem/media elects our President, determins our culture, and our values. During Clinton's investigation, Rather used to open that story this way:
"Republican Ken Starr, is investigating the President's personal life".
If Clinton were Republican, Rather would have said:
"Judge Kenneth Starr is investigating alleged sexual harrassement charges against the President".
And Katie Couric did no stories on sexual harrassment. NONE. No stories on young women in the work force, being hit on by their CEO's or bosses.
She would have done those stories everyday had it been a Republican.
The elites in NY and Hollywood, have written Ken Starr as the pervert in history, and Clinton is a laughable "bad boy".
I have said for decades that the elite NY media is our enemy, not the Dems.
Most on the right have insisted that they don't have that power anymore, even Rush has delusions of wishfull thinking.
Stupid, head-in-the-sand nonsense.
As for our current situation, the proof is there for all to see, the left-wing media has worn down the American people to a pulp, by refusing to report from Iraq in context, revising recent history and pre-war statements, pushing conspirazoids and their myths, and literally rooting for the Islamic cults in Iraq by the implication that the normal everyday Iraqis are rising up against the evil US.
They want us guilt-ridden and second-guessing, they want us to believe that their are NO human beings in the military or the Administration, that war is supposed to run by a script, and never deviate, and that after 9/11 our path was perfectly clear. They are simple contrarians.
They know that leads to inaction and helplessness, in order to turn to some new guy who says the UN will make it all go away.
And since Americans adore their Oprah, Friends, and 1/2 sitcoms, they will take that route.
And the media will suddenly start to report deeds, actions, statements, with clarity and context. Even their words and discriptions will differ from the last 3 years.
It matters not what Bush says or does, for it is his enimies who have to power to report it in any way they please.
