Bravo because of this old ass Commie lover I had to watch my step dad struggle with the vietnam war over and over in his mind for 14 years before he died. I say good riddance you POS Walter !!!!!!!! May the men that died because of your lies and commie loving ways greet you where ever you are going and toss you into the firey pitt of hell!
Here’s the really funny and amusing (in a sad/pathetic sense) thing about Walter Cronkite: he did his fair share to help the US get INTO Vietnam and keep it there, prior to his abrupt about-face following Tet.
I took a class in college on the politics of the Vietnam War. Professor was a raving Lib, but HATED Cronkite ... calling him an opportunist and propagandist for the military industrial complex and someone who’s switch on the war was too little/too late.
As evidence he showed a pre-Tet news segment where Cronkite went on a bombing mission with a B-57 Canberra unit deployed to Vietnam. Uncle Walt was giddy as a frikkin’ schoolgirl climbing out of the back seat of the aircraft, gushing about how much of a rush the mission was for him ... (especially since, iirc, the pilot actually let him toggle the switch to drop the bombs).
Whenever a leftist liberal Media leader dies, an Angel gets its wings.
