A good article. But here are a couple of corrections, with all due respect to CK:
“Meaning? If Fox runs a story critical of the administration — from exposing “green jobs” czar Van Jones as a loony 9/11 “truther”...”
No, the important part of the story was not that he was a “truther,” but that he was a radical COMMUNIST. He was a follower of the tactics follow by Mao, whom CK rightfully slams later in the article. Further, the important news story that FOX is airing is that there are MANY such RADICAL COMMUNISTS in this administration.
WE MUST NOT BE AFRAID TO CALL THEM WHAT THEY ARE. THEY ARE OLD-SCHOOL COMMUNISTS, the very people the anti-communists in America have warned us about for over 5 decades.
“Seeking to deliberately undermine, delegitimize and destroy is not Madisonian. It is Nixonian.”
I’m no fan of Tricky Dick’s. But, let’s face it. He was a hack compared to the Democrats who have made an art of the politics of personal destruction. Using Nixon as an example of a great destroyer of civil debate is fairly silly compared to the other, many examples we have.
He should have said, “It’s Stalinesque.”
One of Stalin’s sayings was, “Control the Media - Control the People.”
This quote ties in perfectly with the point of CK’s article, that the COMMUNISTS in this administration are destroying debate through intimidation and by controlling the media.
Well said.
