The Value of Military Analysts
Focal Point USA ^ | April 29, 2008 | Jim Cash

The most patriotic group of individuals found in this country today has just been assaulted by the New York Times and Representative Ike Skelton (D-MO). I refer to the recent article in the New York Times concerning Military Analysts attempting to convey what is going on around the world from a military point of view. These men have spent their lives being schooled and living these issues. They are an invaluable source of information to the American public. Modern day issues are so complex that it is impossible to define them in a two minute TV segment, and these analysts normally follow up with articles which give greater depth and understanding.

Rest assured, I shall be dropping Mr. Skelton a few well chosen lines! (He really thinks he has the right to visit his stupidity on the rest of us?)

I’m sure Skelton doesn’t have a problem with A.N.S.W.E.R. members voicing their opinions, but those ex-military members, now there’s a devious group if ever there was one. /s

Cash says it best when he asks, “My question to the nation is simply, HOW FAR WILL WE LET THESE FAR-LEFT LOONEY-TUNES go, before we vote them all out of office and stop buying their propaganda.”

How right you are Cash. Your comments here have caused me to have a great deal of respect for you.

Liberals hate the military. Is that a shock?

I have always said that any military man who is a democrat has a self hate complex.
