RIPieces, you commie.
MacNamara was down there waiting for his pal, Walter.
I know this has been on before, but I think I will start a new thread with this.
It seems appropriate.
Oh, I don’t know, Nixon overwhelmed anti-war McGovern even 4 years after Tet. The Vietnamization of the war actually arguably was succeeding until Watergate and the Democrat betrayal of the South Viet Namese, which was Cronkite’s really destructive act, as far as I’m concerned.
Holy cr@p! By this speech Cronkite proved himself even more deluded and evil than I could ever have believed from his Vietnam record alone.
Of course, none of Cronkite’s proposed radical transformations in the world social and economic order would have affected his lifestyle in the slightest. He owned a large sailboat and kept weapons for defense on board.
Hypocrisy,anyone?
One of the pioneers of media bias bites the dust.
I don’t have much of a memory of him, but from everything I’ve read and heard, he did his best to make sure we lost the war in Vietnam. A war that my father fought in.
Good riddance...
Doesn't exclude dying of old age- just dying. I wager that Mickey Rooney will be on deck soon.
NWO goon.see ya!
He was a closet liberal/leftist. Several years after retiring, he said the US should cede some sovereignty to the United Nations. I’m sure others have many more examples.
Andy Rooney chided Dan Rather for letting his liberalism show. He said something to the effect that Cronkite and Rooney were just as liberal, but they didn’t let it show. “Your not supposed to let it show.” Modern liberalism is built on a foundation of lies that they tell and believe themselves.
Some people “grow in office.”
Walter Cronkite “shrank in office.”
...And that’s the way it was, July 17, 2009.
PS!Be glad when Ted Turner bites the dust also.
It was a real eye-opener for me when I read it. I could hardly believe it.
What is more shocking...there are a huge number of liberal Americans including the current President and many, MANY in public office who believe this.
They haven’t got the stones to say so (and Cronkite probably only let the curtains part on this because he was starting to get a bit soft in the head) but it brings to mind what Richard Nixon said about Alger Hiss: “If the American people understood the real character of Alger Hiss, they would boil him in oil.”
I am pretty sure that if many Americans knew what liberals really have in store but won’t dare disclose, they might feel the same way.
Huh?
That's me. I just remember my Dad watching him every night after dinner on CBS (I remember Dan Rather as a reporter too).
Did he fight in WWII?
Didn’t he just cover the news?
Maybe he meant “objectionable.”
He was in the Normandy invasion as a reporter.
He was too young for WW1 and too old for WW2.
Michael Jackson worshippers will be ticked about the shift in MSM focus.
Walter Cronkite dead
