The New York Times Be Damned

The recent decision by the New York Times to reveal the counter terrorism strategies of the Bush administration and the Department of Homeland Security is not over truth or privacy. It is about liberals doing anything to acquire power, and using the media to denigrate in any way possible those in power. The liberals roast the present administration for the failure of many law enforcement agencies to foresee and prevent 9/11, yet when those being criticized are proactive, they are suddenly enfringing on our rights.

These journalistic tactics are not new. Stalin used them. Castro used them. Mao Tse Tung used them. Pol Pot used them. Again, the issue is not truth, but gaining power. Pure and simple. That's why you can't have a rational and reasoned discussion with a liberal. It's not because they are incapable of an intelligent conversation, but because an intelligent conversation/debate does not serve their purpose. They are only interested in facts if those facts serve their cause.

Unfortunately, the collective thought processes of the American public is about at the 3rd to 4th grade level. This age group believes anything that they are told by anyone presenting themself in any authoritative way, however remote the resemblance. For this reason, I know longer subscribe to the local, lazy, liberal rag called the Corpus Christi Caller-Times. Between the Internet, talk radio, and cable news (FOX), I get all the news that is worth noting. As far as I'm concerned, the print media and its current prevailing view can go to--well, you know where--by itself, and not try to drag me there with them.
