Clarice Feldman: Crazy Things Progressives Believe
American Thinker ^ | September 14, 2014 | Clarice Feldman

Posted on 09/14/2014 8:59:24 AM PDT by jazusamo

These days I live in a state of almost continual amazement, bedazzled by the things progressives believe. Earlier this week the New York Times had to print a correction which is probably the number one all time winner in a long line of their recent corrections: “Correction: September 8, 2014

An earlier version of a summary that appeared with this article misstated the former title of Dick Cheney. He was vice president, not president.”

Seriously, someone was hired to and does write for the major progressive publication in America who thought that Dick Cheney had been our president. And what we are led to believe is a legion of equally bright and sharp-eyed editors seem to have shared this mistaken belief.

Mark Landler of that same publication reported on the president’s brief remarks on ISIL (or ISIS, take your pick) this week, with this gem: “Unlike Mr. Bush in the Iraq war, Mr. Obama has sought to surround the United States with partners.”

There must be a new disease, Progressive Dementia, affecting the Old Gray Lady. Though they aren’t the only publication to be struck dumb by it

26 days after the September 11 attacks, Operation Enduring Freedom commenced in Afghanistan. The campaign to oust the Taliban from power, rid the region of al-Qaeda, and build a sustainable post-war Afghan government eventually involved 58 nations, many of them non-NATO members. In Iraq, 45 nations joined the United States in the March, 2003 mission to oust Saddam Hussein from control in Baghdad. By April, Angola and Ukraine had committed to joining the mission, raising the total number of coalition countries including the United States to 48.

Didn't Reid and Pelosi both "certify" his eligibility?

That's not to mention all the grief McCain took for being born in the Canal Zone to American parents, while questions about BHO went, and continue to be, unasked.

Easiest way to fix the country is to Ron Brown the editorial board of the NY Slimes.

Much more likely the word "vice" had been missed in typing a transcript, and an affirmative action copyreader didn't see any misspellings and failed to scrutinize content.
