"I hope the Buffalo News’s treatment of Zerkle and Bellavia is not a harbinger of a return to the bad old days of the post-Vietnam mutual mistrust between the press and the military. Morally smug journalists need to remember "

That this time around they will be the ones getting spat at and called 'baby killers'.

[Viet Vet in Augusta GA]

EVERYBODY -- and I do mean EVERYBODY -- deserves a better press than we got. Real baby-killers were treated better by the MSM than returning Vietnam veterans back then.
Will Iraq and Afghanistan vets get better treatment? I hope so, but experience tells me not to expect it.

Mainstream media is so liberal leftist anti-war on terror lapdogs of demoncRAT party. WE THE PEOPLE deserve better.

Great post. Thank you.

[stockstrader]

This IS the only parallel between Iraq and Vietnam--

the willingness of the MSM, liberals and democrats to undermine the efforts of our military, while providing encouragement, aid-and-comfort to our enemy.

Deja vu all over again.

Goodfellow’s Bedfellows: Who’s in Bed with the Washington Post Dana Priest is Goodfellow's actual bedfellow. A long, but interesting read on the left back to when they started being at least useful idiots, if not worse. It puts the lie to their whine that only the right built up useful organizations like AEI, Heritage Foundation, etc.

I hope the Buffalo News's treatment of Zerkle and Bellavia is not a harbinger of a return to the bad old days of the post-Vietnam mutual mistrust between the press and the military. Morally smug journalists need to remember that a free press does not exist for its own sake, but because the Founders saw it as a guardian of republican government. They should also remember that this is a responsibility the press shares with the military.

THE LEFT'S RECKLESS TET-OFFENSIVE-GAMBIT REPLAY:
the left's jihad against America is killing our troops, aiding + abetting the terrorists and imperiling all Americans

"What is government itself but the greatest of all reflections on human nature? If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary."

James Madison

 

When the founders granted 'The Press' special dispensation, they never considered the possibility that traitors in our midst would game the system. But that is precisely what is happening today. (Hate America? Support jihad? Become a 'journalist!')

This was bound to happen.

The premise behind the First Amendment as it applies to the press--that a vigilant watchdog is necessary, sufficient--indeed, possible--to protect against man's basest instincts--is tautologically flawed: The fox guarding the White House, if you will.

Walter Lippmann, the 20th-century American columnist, wrote, "A free press is not a privilege, but an organic necessity in a great society." True in theory. True even in Lippmann's quaint mid-20th-century America, perhaps. But patently false in this postmodern era of the bubbas and the Pinches.

When a free and great society is hijacked by a seditious bunch of dysfunctional, power-hungry malcontents and elitists, it will remain neither free nor great for long. When hijacked by them in the midst of asymmetric warfare, it will soon not remain at all.

If President George W. Bush is serious about winning the War on Terror, he will aggressively pursue the enemy in our midst.

Targeting and defeating the enemy in our midst is, by far, the more difficult task and will measure Bush's resolve and courage (and his independence from the MPRDC (mutual protection racket in DC)) more than any pretty speech, more even than 'staying the course.'
