From the Wall Street Journal December 12, 2006

Thomas Jefferson, a better president than we`ve had in a very long time, penned a line back in 1787: “Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without government, I would not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.” By 1807, in his seventh year as president and after seven years of being subjected to severe press criticism, he wrote: “I deplore the putrid state into which our newspapers have passed, and the malignity, the vulgarity and the mendacious spirit of those who write them.”

FYI NOTICE:

Back in the 90s ‘Hit n Run’ Sanchez ran over a pedestrian-Jeffrey Smuzinick- while driving home drunk from a Dolphin’s game. ‘Hit and Run’ Sanchez left the scene and then returned a couple hours later where he blew a 0.15 but wasn’t charged with a DUI (according to some reports he was friends with the officer on the scene).

Jeffrey Smuzinick was paralyzed by the accident and after five years of battling to stay alive and a long coma incurred by his injuries died at the age of 36 in a nursing home.

Rick Sanchez is a disgrace, a coward and in my opinion a killer who deserves to be exposed and denounced as such. Please pass this information along as CNN will not. (Miami Herald, Nov. 2, 1995)

I’ve asked it before and I’ll ask it again. How can you stand watching CNN, Keith O. and Chris M? How do you keep your sanity?

With that said, thank you for doing so as someone has to expose them for who they are. I just can’t stomach these people.

Paul,
Thanks for the great article and insight. Remember the motto of the Left. Never let a lie go untold. Never confuse the truth with the need to advance the agenda. Never let intelligence or research interfere with “your truth”. Never, never use the library or Google. Never allow the opposing viewpoint to present evidence or the truth. This is a career breaker. Never, never, question who you sold your soul to. They may graduate you to the FOO category. Never hold to the belief that truth is self-evident. Tell yourself that the truth is fluid and is able to be massaged to meet the needs of the moment. Never allow a more intelligent person with an opposing viewpoint to be seen with you. This can also be a career killer by bringing into question your loyalty to the death.And above all, remember that you are superior and all-knowing to all that have a conservative point of view. You are the modern human model. Conservatives are the Neaderthal model.You have been chosen. You are enlightened. (I needed to use a bit of humor, since it takes a lot of fortitude to read anything about Sanchez and his astounding grasp of history).

Just a other reason I don’t watch CNN.

I think in a lot of cases, leftwing journalists are just lazy, professionally and intellectually. They don’t want to do the work, they just want to get invited to all the parties.

Then they get bent out of shape when they get exposed. Slackers.

It’s just plain stupid for the Obama administration to be attacking FNC this way. What’s more problematic is their warning to the other news media. Jake Tapper(?)deserves kudos for questioning Gibbs about it, and the press pool, as well, for their recent action. It will only help the country if the media realize that this attack on FOX is an attact on all media and freedom of speech.

Good catch, Paul!

The correct parallel to Lincoln would be if W. had imprisoned the New York Times reporter and editors responsible for exposing valuable intelligence operations.

As for the FDR reference, that’s just mind boggling. Of course Chris Matthews insisted that we had zero casualties post VE Day the other day. Now they don’t just repeat falsehoods someone else is spreading, they make up their own!
