Here's a quick roundup of some hard-hitting editorial cartoona about the TreasonTimes. The first one actually appeared in today's Philadelphia Inquirer, which is pretty stunning.
Let's hope the executives at The New York Traitor are reduced to selling apples and pencils on a dingy street corner.
Every time they go public they make themselves easier targets. At some point even European pansies will tire of this.
I liked the Saturday Night Live sketch in the first gulf war, where the reporters were asking questions like, "What are our greatest areas of vulnerability, and how could the enemy best exploit them?"
Grey Lady down :)
That is the best "cartoon" of all!!!
It's just too bad that the shareholders of this rag continue to suffer while the reporters continue to collect their Pulitzers.
I wonder if"Pinch" and the other turds from The New York Traitor ever read "Pogo"? "We have met the enemy and he is us"
May they soon go out of business and only exist on "Hamburger Helper". Or better yet, "Alpo."

("What if" in History - No. 6) Aug. 1, 1944: NEW YORK TIMES breaks story of family hiding from Nazis

==========================================================================
The NEW YORK TIMES has learned exclusively of an amazing story about a Jewish family that has been hiding from the Nazis in an annex of rooms above a business in Amsterdam.
Otto Frank, a German businessman, became fearful for his family when Adolph Hitler came to power in 1933. In the summer of 1933, Frank left Frankfurt for Amsterdam, in the Netherlands, to set up a business called the Dutch Opekta Company. Less than a year later, he was joined by his wife Edith and their daughters, Margot and Anne.
By the mid-1930s, the Franks had settled into a normal routine. They developed a circle of friends who were both Jewish and non-Jewish, the girls attended school, and they took family vacations. Otto expanded his business in 1938, going into partnership with a merchant, Hermann van Pels, who was also a Jewish refugee from Nazi Germany.
The belief that Amsterdam was a safe haven from the Nazis was shattered when the Germans invaded the Netherlands in May of 1940. For a short time, Anne and Margot continued to attend school and socialize with their friends. In May 1942, all Jews aged six and older were required to wear a yellow Star of David on their clothes to set them apart from non-Jews. After summer recess in 1941, the girls were no longer allowed to attend schools with non-Jews.
Under the Nazi administration, Jews were required to register their businesses, and later they were forced to surrender them to non-Jews. Otto Frank had anticipated the decree and had already turned his business over to non-Jewish colleagues Victor Kugler and Johannes Kleiman.
By 1942, Jews were being arrested and forced into German labor camps. The Frank family was fearful for their lives and planned to go into hiding. They had already chosen the place -- an annex of rooms above Otto Frank's office at 263 Prinsengracht in Amsterdam. People on the office staff had agreed to help them.
Margo received a call-up notice on July 5, 1942. That meant that she would soon be deported to a Nazi work camp, so the family knew they had to go into hiding immediately. They left notes indicating that they had left the country.
The family entered the hiding place on July 6. On July 13, the van Pels family joins the Franks. Then on November 16, 1942, the seven residents of the Secret Annex were joined by an eighth and final resident, Fritz Pfeffer.
The group has been extremely careful not to be seen or heard, knowing that the Nazis would arrest them if they are discovered. They have been hiding for two years. Anne has been keeping a diary of the family's struggle to stay together and not be taken by the Nazis.
We at the TIMES hope that the Franks, the van Pels, and Pfeffer are not discovered in their hiding place at 263 Prinsengracht in Amsterdam. It must be a terrifying existence. After the war, perhaps we can turn Anne's diary into a book. It certainly is a wonderful human interest story of a teenage girl.
We expect to have further reports from the Amsterdam hiding place over the next several months and to bring you an exclusive interview with the courageous young Anne Frank.
Count on the NEW YORK TIMES for all your war coverage. If it's news, we will have it first.

What seems to be lost on the people who claim that these leaks aren't treasonous is the fact that foreign security services are now fully conginzant of the fact that the US simply can't keep any secrets. This is going to lead to a major hit on our intelligence agencies being able to get information from the intelligence agencies of other countries.
During WWI, the Germans were able to adjust their artillery fire by reading the French newspapers. The NY Slimes (and the rest of the MSM in general) is carrying on the tradition.

Exactly! The only reason any of the leftists supported the war was because of Hitler's betrayal of Stalin, when he attacked the Soviet Union. Before that, Hitler and Stalin had signed non-aggression pacts, and if not for that blunder, England probably would have fallen, and NAZI Germany and the Soviet Union probably would have ruled all of Europe, and quite a bit of Asia.

Forgive me for being dense, but is this a joke? They didn't do this, right? After what these bastards have been up to for the last six years, I could believe they'd do anything to further their agenda.
If it's a parody, it's a horrible one :(
Yes, it's a joke. If Jonathon Risen was alive then, however, he may have well done it.
Thank God. That guy knows how to write. I was reading the Anne Frank piece out loud to him :(
Thanks for letting us know.
Thank you for your very important contribution.
Letting us see those cartoons is a patriotic
task.
