And the extremely sad, even revolting outcome of their monopoly (thanks to the liberal breeding ground of the Columbia School of Broadcasting and colleges and universities in general) was the failure to win in Vietnam.
I never knew Walter Cronkite was a democrat, a liberal, a progressive as it were. Never even thought about such things.
Night after night I listened to him give the body bag count of Vietnam, and relate the horrors of the war, and the failure of our ability to fight it....I never knew until a FEW MONTHS AGO that we WON every single major offensive in Vietnam...that our precious troops, in the TET offensive had virtually WON that war at that time-with the Viet Cong losing over 50,000 fighters in a short few week period...
I DID NOT KNOW THIS BECAUSE THE MAJOR NETWORKS WERE BUSY BREAKING THE RESOLVE OF OUR NATION, CATERING TO THE ANTI_WAR FREAKS LIKE JOHN KERRY, AND LYING ABOUT OUR THE COURAGEOUS EFFORTS OF OUR TROOPS (whom they were dissing and dishonoring with every breath from their arrogant news speak.
MILLIONS DIED as a result of our giving up, they died in the killing fields of CAMOBODIA....and Lancey...the BOAT PEOPLE, oh my gosh, the fleeing from Vietnam at the end when we withdrew...the sadness....the DEATH!
Liberals stink.
And the major talking heads today are STILL TRYING to break our nation's resolve to win the war on terror, to STAY THE COURSE in IRAQ, to fund the war with the money required and to STAND BEHIND OUR PRESIDENT.
They want President Bush to be President 'Nixon'.
They believe in a peace that has everything cozy at home even as thousands, hundreds of thousands, and in Sudan, MILLIONS are slaughtered under the arm of tyrannical and mad leaders.
For me, that is not PEACE. If we cannot use this fabulous gift of freedom and spread this gift not only to help others receive this joyous and most important lifestyle, but to ENSURE a better, safer world in doing so...then WHAT ARE WE?
I DISPISE OUR MAINSTREAM PRESS, NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE DEMOCRATS, BUT BECAUSE THEY DO NOT LEAVE THEIR POLITICAL BELIEFS AT HOME WHEN THEY GO TO WORK.
Rant /OFF! LOL Promise-no more long, verbose rants (at least tonight! lol)
Loved your Rant because its so very true.
Kind of like most college professors.
And Mr Cronkite has said a couple of days ago that he doesn't understand why the government does not outlaw these internet news sites that posts such untruths.
He still lives, as most of MSM does, of the notion that only news filtered through them is the truth.
Keep on ranting, Republic, you are thrilling the audience...well at least me:)
You, my friend, are hitting the target on this thread. Thanks for expressing how I feel!
