Thank you.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

From the article...

"...we must strengthen the United Nations as a first step toward a world government patterned after our own government with a legislature, executive and judiciary, and police to enforce its international laws and keep the peace," he said. "To do that, of course, we Americans will have to yield up some of our sovereignty. That would be a bitter pill. It would take a lot of courage, a lot of faith in the new order."

In his acceptance speech, Cronkite added, "Pat Robertson has written in a book a few years ago that we should have a world government, but only when the Messiah arrives. He wrote, literally, any attempt to achieve world order before that time must be the work of the devil. Well, join me. I'm glad to sit here at the right hand of Satan."

This has been in the works a long time. We just never really believed it could happen.

First they make people stupid. Then they make them complacent. Finally they skewer them and consume them.

Thanks for the ping, Dr E.

And let’s not forget that the city was under Martial Law because of the terror attacks against civilians.

I'm sure you're right; I just couldn't remember, although one could look at the situation and hazard saying, "well, of course it was." Even without martial law, Gen. Loan was fully justified by the laws of war.

Cronkite, that old seditious liberal, must have nearly cheered when he read the 45 Communist goals published in the 1963 Congressional Record. He certainly did his part to take us there. And, he likely is sitting right where he wanted to be as a result of the darkness he loved.

Cronkite: Bush working with bin Laden
Says he thinks Rove set up videotape terror threat

Posted: October 31, 2004

Walter Cronkite, the former CBS anchor once dubbed “the most trusted man in America,” speculated on CNN’s “Larry King Live” that President Bush’s re-election campaign is working with Osama bin Laden.

On Friday night, King showed Cronkite an excerpt from the al-Qaida videotape released earlier that day on the al-Jazeera satellite network in which bin Laden says: “Your security is not in the hands of Kerry or Bush or al-Qaida. Your security is in your own hands. Any nation that does not attack us will not be attacked.”

Asked for his reaction, Cronkite said: “So now the question is basically right now, how will this affect the election? And I have a feeling that it could tilt the election a bit. In fact, I’m a little inclined to think that Karl Rove, the political manager at the White House, who is a very clever man, he probably set up bin Laden to this thing. The advantage to the Republican side is to get rid of, as a principal subject of the campaigns right now, get rid of the whole problem of the al Qaqaa explosive dump. Right now, that, the last couple of days, has, I think, upset the Republican campaign.”

‘Globalist’ Walter Cronkite gets weekly column
Ex-CBS anchor inks deal to write syndicated news column

Cronkite: And that’s the way Bush is – arrogant

after having rejected previous offers to write commentaries.

Why the change of heart?

In a statement released by King, Cronkite says he’s troubled by “our bellicose military policy; our arrogant foreign policy; our domestic security policy that threatens our freedom of speech, press, and person; and our financial policy that many if not most economists believe threatens a national deficit deep into this century.”

Robert McNamara, now Uncle Walter. Wonder who will be next, as these things tend to come in threes. Teddy Kennedy????

I wasn’t really trying to be cute about the Red Cross Girls. I thought it was kinda neat to see them up with the guys in the APC’s. I did not get to see Bob Hope and the USO show because I was not a brown noser. The font lines for me were North West of Siagon around the Iron Triangle. We all experienced Viet Nam different. Sure I got shot at with an RPG and ran over a land mine and got a Purple Heart but I look for the brighter side of things to keep from being depressed and a grouch.

I'm almost ashamed to admit I didn't realize we'd WON the Tet offensive until I met my husband in 1994. Not that I wish Walter Cronkite any ill will, but may he arrive at the gates of Hell an hour before St. Peter knows he's dead. He tried to have my husband killed, no matter how "objectively" he claimed to file his reports. I shan't weep any tears of sorrow over his passing. He mislead a nation. I can only hope he's paying the price now.

After the series “the Twentieth Century” was over in 1969, after a season's pause, Walter narrated another new TV series “The Twenty First Century.” This series largely chronicled the promise of new technologies, but also advocated for a Malthuslian future, a world of overpopulation. The popular imagination was stoked with bestsellers like “the Population Bomb” which foretold of a future of dire overcrowding and dwindling resources.

I distinctly remember as a child hearing Walter pronounce in a fearful baritone, how the world population would double by the year 2000, and that there would be standing room only.

Walter, I mourn your passing, but you could not have been more wrong on this account. Here we are in the year 2009, and the largest increase in population in the US is from illegal immigration, a cause which you and your liberal buddies champion. This fear of over-population was a seminal argument for the abortion advocates. To my knowledge, Walter Cronkite supported the abortion slaughter. Walter, the blood-guilt of 42 million innocent babies is upon your legacy.

Thank you-good post!

I was aware that he was one of the useful idiots, which makes the generation of our poor parents still left gasp in shock when you tell them you’re not sad they’re gone.

“Sure I got shot at with an RPG and ran over a land mine and got a Purple Heart but I look for the brighter side of things to keep from being depressed and a grouch.”

In prep school, the Headmaster tried to teach me how to drive stick...Epic Fail.

At Ft.Bragg, everyone had to get their “license” to drive a deuce and a half....I missed out on every class by coincidental commitments ( eg. KP :) )...
L U C K Y !

Cut to Quang Tri 1968.... just before I was detached to Dong Ha.

Master Sgt: “ Sgt. Jaybird..YOU are the driver . Join the convoy to Danang which leaves in one hour ..MOVE !

Sgt. Jaybird ( whining like a little girl )...”But Sgt. I can't drive stick “

Master Sgt: “As you were Jaybird.......Sp4 Knucklehead...drop what your doing
and take Jaybird's place....NOW !

Sp 4 Knucklehead: ( whispered like a little girl) “ yes sgt “.

Look at a map......Quang Tri to Danang......might as well been a convoy to California...talk about land mines...talk about snipers......the accelerator pedal was surrounded with so many sandbags , it had to have it's length extended in order to actually work.

I finally learned how to shift years later at the Harley Davidson plant in York, Pa....they had a course and I passed !!! There is a God in Heaven.

I went through Heavy Equipment School at Ft Leonardwood. They assumed that we could drive any vehicle so they just wrote a license for what ever they needed at least until I got to Germany. I had to take the International Drivers license which I failed. I spent three months on guard duty without the license. I got through Basic Algebra because of it.
