Classic Pam Geller rant
Anti-Muslim activist and frequent Fox News guest has posted one of the most incoherent drug-induced rants I've ever seen by a public pundit:

You know, Pam, maybe the Muslims have a point when it comes to their stance regarding alcohol consumption...

Wow! She's going to be shocked about all those typos when she sobers up. She'll probably still be proud of the clarity of her message though as it's not anything she doesn't say sober. The mental old bag!

The problem with this historical revisionism is that people believe it, and it is impossible to defend Cronkite from this far away.

Don't laugh. We had a member here named TokenConservative who believed that both Cronkite and William S. Paley were taking their orders from their bosses in Hanoi and that Joe McCarthy was an honorable man. I loved debating him (or her.) Some people see seditionists in every crack and crevice.

I remember TokenConservative.
The threads where he argued against global warming were epic. Also he really hated teachers at public schools....or was it just teachers in general? |

Why does anyone pay attention to this loon? She's a nut. Ignore her.

Maybe without the recently deceased sludge monster and his Big Lie noise machine to promote the drunken harpy, she will eventually self-destruct in such an elegant manner that all she worked for will go into the toilet.

Is there any support to her claims that Cronkite was a "red" or is this just more mental diarrhea for the Fox News crowd to eat up (and accept without checking for any veracity behind the claims?)

Because he came out against the Vietnam war, I suppose.
No, obviously that doesn't make him a "red" except in the minds of people like Pam Geller. ETA: maybe there's a little more. Looking at the Wiki article on his political activism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_...tical_activism None of his political activism was actually pro-communist, but he was in favor of world government, which in the minds of right-wingers is almost the same thing. ETA2: Of course, all of his political activism was after he retired from CBS News. I think he mostly kept his personal political opinions out of his reports as CBS News anchor. |
