Someone explain this one to me????
« on: May 19, 2009, 03:41:16 PM »
  I was watching fox news at lunch today, and one of their analysts came on and started talking about the fact that we were engaged in three different wars. One in Iraq, one in Afghanistan, and another, "minor War on Terror".

No excuse me for my ignorance of the media elitists, but I thought that we were fighting a Global War on Terror, and that Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Iran, and so on and so forth, were just simply battlefields, and not their own separate wars? I mean during WWII was it the War on Japan, or The war on Germany, or Italy. NO! They were all fronts in the greater world war.

So why do we separate this out so much when we are fighting the same enemy no matter where we happen to be on the map?

Because even at Fox the majority of media talking heads are idiots.

I would like to know who does the thinking for BHO.

Did everyone read Orwell's 1984?  Remember the term "doublespeak"?  The libs and BHO are changing the vocabulary.  No longer "the global war on terror" but now called "man-made incidents" or some such thing.  Not "global warming", but "climate change".

I believe they are working within the confines of an ignorant public.  The average person that does not really pay real attention to current events.  Most just want the Cliff Notes version and an opinion to spout when called for.  The MSM is more than happy to oblige. And please don't forget, just because it is FOXNEWS doesn't preclude the folk that work there from ass-hattery 'cause in 2000 they were the first to call FL for Algore. ;)
The person who has nothing for which his is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

I like that term.


**edit for clarity***

Proctologists nationwide should open up side businesses as hat makers for liberals......of course, most libs just make their own.
