...WALTER CRONKITE going South..?

...WHY did Anti-U.S. Internationalist WALTER CRONKITE publically call on our 11 Southern States in the South to secede from our Union at a 2000 World Conference in London, England in violation of our U.S. Constitution..?

Ronnie, what about the lies he spread about Viet Nam. He spewed for weeks how we were losing, during the Tet Offensive. We were winning big time! The most trusted man in America turned the American people against support of the war and our troops. This caused political decisions that cost untold lives! There are still many people in this country that will hang on the word of this dangerous man.

Cronkite, who says he is registered as an "Independent," claims to be a fiscal conservative and a social liberal.

Well, there we go. Walter Mitty Cronkite and Ahnold. By the way, you two dweebs, Colin Powell described himself that way years ago.

Independent, huh? I wonder when the last time it was that Walter voted for someone other than the most left-wing candidate?

It gave the synonyms for 'liberal' as 'progressive,' 'broad-minded,' 'unprejudiced,' 'beneficent.' The antonyms it offered: 'reactionary' and 'intolerant.' "I've always suspected those fine folks at Random House of being liberals. You just can't trust anybody these days."

Sure, Walter. Gore sending an army of lawyers to Florida, along with memos on how to block the military absentee vote: that wasn't reactionary, was it? Or intolerant?

It's nice to live in your own little world. Why don't you just go sailing and shaddup.

...You are 100% Correct about WALTER CRONKITE's "IS-IS" TV Lies about our Fight for FREEDOM in a once Free South Vietnam long ago.

...Only one must understand that CRONKITE's own TV version of "IS-IS" Lies about us started out even before our 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile) ever got to South Vietnam in the Summer of 1965 to stop a North Vietnamese Communist Army takeover of the Central Highlands.

...We quickly stopped seeing TV Recordings of what WALTER CRONKITE was telling the American People about how we were doing in Vietnam on the 'CBS Nightly News,' so divorced were his Reports from reality ...from the Start.

...The Blood of many just drips from the sleeves of one Anti-U.S. Internationalist WALTER CRONKITE.

...Now that's what Reality really IS.

Two summers ago, he admitted he's long been a socialist.

The scary fact is, that this radical-leftist was once the "most trusted man in America."

Thanks for viewing my Vietnam Photos that Lt. Gen. HAL G. MOORE (Ret.) was kind enough to post on his .."WE WERE SOLDIERS ONCE and YOUNG".. Website.

To sign our U.S. 7th Cavalry's Petition for President BUSH to award the Presidention Medal of FREEDOM to Lifetime Lifesaving Hero RICK RESCORLA who saw the World Trade Center's Tower 2 come crashing down on him on Sept. 11th after he had gotten almost everyone else out:

Cronkite said he "looked up the definition of 'liberal' in a Random House dictionary. It gave the synonyms for 'liberal' as 'progressive,' 'broad-minded,' 'unprejudiced,' 'beneficent.

Cronkite forgot to look up the definition of "communist"

Today's Democrat Party is more communist than liberal, but pretending to be liberal makes it much easier to be "progressive" ie. "pro-agressive.

She has hired Walter Cronkite to write left-wing commentary on the editorial page.
Cronkite, who says he is registered as an "Independent," claims to be a fiscal conservative and a social liberal.
I couldn't write left-wing commentary on a bet. hadit2here noted that he couldn't even write left-wing biased news copy when he was trying to write a parody of it. Given that Walter Cronkite was the exemplar of what passed for objective journalism in the Eisenhower era, it is small wonder that journalism could and did synthesize the myth of "McCarthyism" back then.

If you consider the combination of the journalism Establishment and the way the FDR/HST administrations were dominated by fellow travelers, Communists, and outright Soviet agents, the marvel is that any democracy/freedom of speech at all remains to us. The tradition of respect for the Constitution was powerful indeed, to allow us to ascend from the pit which was the FDR Administration to the height which was the Reagan Administration.

The con that Gore had the FL election sewed up nearly turned the 2000 election, and I still marvel that a Republican Administration with a Republican Congress can do nothing to reform that. broadcast discussion of politics--especially journalism--on election day is undue influence which should be outlawed. Yet for all its vaunted power PR does have its limits. Reagan proved that its "a sucker born every minute" cynicism can be overcome by faith.

this morning that had a clip on a tv spot Cronkite is doing AGAINST a enviromentally sound energy saving device that a company wants to put up off of Martha's Vinyard.....

trouble is, the "me first, I'm rich and priviledged, and I don't want no stinking energy saving devices near MY property but the rest of you can drive neon's to work, yada yada, yada".....crowd is also the "do as I preach,not as I do" crowd....

people like Cronkite come out strong against you and I and against our SUV's and drilling in ANWAR but just you don't go expecting THEM to sacrifice...no siree...
