But Walter Cronkite, as a journalist, never appeared concerned with truth.  Almost all of Washington knew that Kennedy was unfaithful, everyone knew his father was a crooked anti-Semite, and the rumors of Kennedy deals with the mob and the corrupt machines of Daley and West Virginia was notorious – notorious, and almost ignored by the anchor of CBS Evening News.  Perhaps that was a better America, in which every personal scandal was not dredged through the tedious news cycle.  But much of America looked to Cronkite to be our guardian of truth, and he was most certainly not.

I don’t buy the argument that the government can add 40 million uninsured people to the health care system, cut the total cost and not go into debt. A growing nameless, faceless bureaucracy representing Treasury (IRS), Health and Human Services and other federal agencies will set the guidelines for care rendered in doctor-patient decisions.

The Left has long confused work, jobs, and worth.  The Stimulus Package, the grand catastrophe, was intended to create and preserve jobs which could make America poorer, not richer.

It is hard to say whether the Left has simple contempt for productive genius or simply fear of it, but it is very easy to see that creating nominal “jobs” with no purpose seems noble and logical to those who have never really created a good or a service in their lives.

Book mark this video. Then, whenever you hear our president tell you about saving money due to health care reform, that we must have Card Check, that his ideas on energy and environment will save the planet, watch this video again. Because if you were starting to believe anything he says you need a dope-slap.

Canadian citizen and brain cancer survivor Shona Holmes provides compelling evidence as to why we MUST defeat the Obama health care legislation.

Earl Pomeroy (D North Dakota) helped make possible the 219-208 margin that passed a bill opposed by many anti-abortion Democrats. Pomeroy voted with Democratic leaders Nancy Pelosi, Stenny Hoyer, and Barney Frank to permit the D.C. government to spend District of Columbia tax revenues to provide abortions, thereby reversing a long-standing ban imposed by Congress on the use of taxpayer dollars to kill unborn babies. Pre-Birth Infanticide……..now that is fighting, fighting, fighting for North Dakota! Maybe though, he did not read the bill?

Harry C. Alford had had enough of Senator Barbara Boxer’s “God Awful” racial politics. And he gives her a verbal whipping! Watch the whole video. You will be glad you did!

“From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.” - Nancy Pelosi Karl Marx

The question that North Dakota media will never ask or report: Who funds our congressional delegation’s campaigns? Where did $3.5 million come from?

Under the Global Warming scenario at it’s greatest effect, will take over one hundred years to cause the loss of lives that will be saved in 1 year from the increased food we produce with the warmer earth.

Some may say I’m being picayune, that this is much ado about nothing.  But if you think this sloppiness somehow magically limits itself to the issuance of press releases, then you’d probably believe that Michelle Obama buys her sneakers at Wal-Mart.  In point of fact, it tells us something about those at the helm of our listing nation.

When the media becomes a paid subsidiary of government we will be in real trouble. Is this move a backdoor “Fairness Doctrine” move? Good old Federal racism? Barney Frank is involved…..WATCH OUT!

Clearly, Fox’ claim of being the “fairest” news channel can have more than one meaning.  Hey, they report, you ogle.

Speaking of loony, a cartoon was authored way back in January of 2009. Six months latter the cartoonist is proven 100 percent dead on.

Considering words….Summer weekends, cool North Dakota evenings and idle time make for an impetuous combination.
