Network Wars? CBS's "Blue Bloods" takes a great shot at Al Sharpton and MSNBC
one man's opinion

Posted on 11/05/2011 9:14:00 AM PDT by ken5050

Wow..The culture of Political Correctness hasn't totally overtaken Hollywood.

CBS's "Blue Bloods", is a hit series, now in its second season, and a favorite of mine. It stars Tom Selleck as the NYC Commissioner, surrounded by several family members who are also cops. It's tough, gritty, and filmed in NYC. A pretty accurate portrayal.

Last night's episode was very kewl...

The terms Communist, Progressive and Liberal as used by the left, all mean the same thing. Let me explain why. Carl Marx in 1848 finished writing and then published the Communist Manifesto. Over the next 30 to 40 years the book gained some followers, mostly self anointed elites with PHDs. ( Now there is a subject worth some grant money. Why are highly educated people with PHDs so susceptible to such an absurd philosophy.) As people became aware of their agenda, the communists picked the term progressive in an attempt to hide that agenda. Years later, the same problem, too many people have spotted the agenda again so they picked the term liberal. ( Note that the dictionary definitions of progressive and liberal are very far removed from the political definitions.)

One of the goals of their agenda is to infiltrate and take control of both major political parties. The Democrat party is at this time wholly controlled, 90% to 95%. The Republican party is 40% to 45% controlled. This leaves WE THE PEOPLE with very little true representation inside the belt way.

If we want to survive, as a nation, as a republic, we must flush the progressives from both parties, from all government offices, from the media, from positions of instruction, both public schools and universities. The progressive political philosophy must be rendered ineffectual, laughable, an object of ridicule. The progressive must be excoriated and driven out of any position of authority. Any adherent of such an absurd idea should never be paid more than minimum wage.

In a brief spasm of vigilantism, shooting or hanging fifteen too twenty thousand progressives would end their agenda for at least two hundred years.

I put in a request at my local library.

I am number 59 on the waiting list, and that’s spread across the six branches that have the set.

Not to many people know this, but, the “Reverend” Al Sharpton doesn’t even operate a church, he has no church, and no divinity school education. He was given his “Reverend” title when he was a child.......He is a living parody of a huckster preacher.

Why do I get the notion that the only person watching Sharpton on MSNBC is Mrs Sharpton?

Your notion is incorrect.

Ms. Sharpton dumped her hubby 6 or 7 years ago...........So she has much better things to do then watch his fat ass, LOL.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We know that, but all the individuals in the differing group names do no realize it. Which is why I name them and sorta lump them together. The old “What’s in a Name game.”

Thank you for your response.

I also loved it when Selleck’s character quoted Martin Luther King Jr. to put the Rev. in his place....

I am often confused with Tom Selleck on the street. It’s a burden I must carry.
