| Reply By: Gideon MacLeishPosted: Tuesday, October 16, 2007 Honestly, MM, I have to say I respectfully disagree with you on this. And strongly so. You're right about the communist infiltration of the government. But it's not hidden. All you need to do is look at the signatories to the World Can't Wait movement, a movement founded and directed by the Revolutionary Communist Party (among them Maxine Waters, Cynthia McKinney and John Conyers). But to destroy the lives of innocent Americans for an agenda is not acceptable. Free speech is essential to a Democracy, and while it is not wrong to expose the political viewpoints of our leaders, it is, in my estimation, wrong to destroy their lives because of it. |
I am not talking about going after innocent Americans Gid, I am talking about reigning in the MSM and the far left that has a communist agenda,
The MSM proved it with their reporting of Lt. General Ricardo Sanchez's remarks about the mishandling of the war and how the MSM is misleading the public, one "reporter" had the nerve to get up and disrespect the general with saying "thank you for the lecture , now can we get back to how bad the war was mismanaged" the next day except for the Washington post their was article after article about how Bush is wrong, bush is bad , bush is an idiot, no mention of the long comments about how the MSM is misleading the public and is killing our troops, proving the generals assertions.

Ah zoomba, All I am asking for is some fair reporting from the MSM and putting a stop to the farleft and its Communist agenda, hardly a conservative standpoint, but truly just one American worried about the direction the country is taking and how we are being mislead not just by the Bush administration but the farleft and their public relations firm AKA the MSM
I do not agree with the verbage, but I understand the idea behind it. YOu can be a communist all you want in this country as it is a free one. However, I am tired of people hiding behind mis-labels as well. Progressive is a soup, not a political ideology. If yuo want to be a communist, then state so. Dont say you are "for the children (or insert downtrodden minority group here)" and then try to sneak in a communistic agenda.
Truth in labeling. We have it in commercial advertising. We should demand it in politics as well.
The joy of being an American is that you can voice any opinion, you can lobby for any change, you can be of any political belief and you don't get rounded up. You don't get put on trial. The House Committee on UnAmerican Activities was probably the least American thing the US Government has done in a long long time.
I disagree with much of the agenda most media outlets are pushing (not a single one of them is unbiased or fair, no matter what they claim, they all have a different axe to grind), but no matter how much I disagree with them, unless they're committing actual crimes (i.e. giving material aid to our enemies. And I don't mean just singing their praises, I mean money, resources etc.) I will never support rounding them up or putting them on trial.
I'm tired of people calling others traitors for having dissenting views. I remember when the second Iraq war kicked off a few years back, people on this very site said if you didn't support the President in this action that you were a traitor and should be kicked out of the country.
That attitude, and the attitude that we should bring back even a shadow of the McCarthy trials, is more unamerican than anythng else I can think of.
