Interesting Facts...

Anyone Wanna Battle The Leftist Media Hegemony?

Mike,

I know I don't have to tell you that today's media have a blatant left-wing bias. But did you realize just how blurred the lines have become between the Obama Administration and the liberal media?

Currently there are more than thirty media personnel working as reporters, editors, correspondents, anchors, producers or media executives who once toiled for President Obama or his campaign.

And this doesn't even include personnel who have put in past stints for Democrat officials or liberal groups which advance Obama's agenda. That explains why the talking points advanced by the White House are so faithfully parroted by the media outlets on the evening news:

Despite evidence to the contrary, the networks mimicked the White House spin that ObamaCare won't cut jobs since those expected to move from full-time to part-time work would do so voluntarily. This, just hours after the same nonsense was advanced by White House Press Secretary Jay Carney.

Even reporter Sharyl Attkisson who was squeezed out of her position at CBS news because of her hard hitting journalism, confesses, "People would be surprised at the level of cooperation reporters have in general with politicians."

At the Media Research Center, we're not surprised—with more than 60 in-house news analysts documenting every major news story for more than 25 years, we've proven that the national media's primary objective is not to report the news, but to spin, distort and suppress the news in order to brainwash Americans into accepting socialism . And the Obama Administration has taken this incestuous relationship to a new level.

And now, with the critical midterm elections just around the corner, they are working even harder to manipulate the American public in hopes of swaying the election in favor of their liberal candidates. We must not allow them to get away with it.

You can join with thousands of Americans and stand up to this out-of-control liberal media in our campaign to STOP the Propaganda.With a gift to the MRC, you can give us the resources to intensify our fight against the liberal media and dismantle the unholy alliance with the White House and other Washington politicians.

This is a vital step towards preventing the media from stealing the 2014 elections.

Help us get a head start on meeting our $50,000 goal right now.

If you're outraged by the clandestine cooperation between the White House and their willing accomplices in the media, then now is the time to fight back.

Take a stand with the MRC and make your voice heard today.

Sincerely,

Hey Lefties: That Ship Has Sailed!

Communism and Socialism are failures. Stop trying to redefine them and stop glorifying them. These two ideologies have snuffed out millions of lives.

The way forward is free markets made from free individuals with equal opportunities and unequal results. The fight we must all fight is crony capitalism which is not far from fascism and socialism.

Always remember, the more government grows, the less liberty we all have.

USS Monitor 1862. Deck, after battle with CSS Virginia..

The USS Monitor was an iron-hulled steamship. Built during the American Civil War, it was the first ironclad warship commissioned by the United States Navy.[a] Monitor is most famous for her central role in the Battle of Hampton Roads on 9 March 1862, where, under the command of John Worden, she fought the casemate ironclad CSS Virginia (the former steam frigate USS Merrimack) to a standoff. The unique design of the ship, distinguished by its revolving turret, was quickly duplicated and established the Monitor type of warship.

Designed by the Swedish-born engineer and inventor John Ericsson, and hurriedly built in Brooklyn in only 101 days, the Monitor presented a new concept in ship design and employed a variety of new inventions and innovations in ship building that caught the attention of the world. The impetus to build the Monitor was prompted by the news that the Confederates were building an ironclad warship, named Virginia, that could engage the Union ships that were blockading Hampton Roads and the James River leading to Richmond, and ultimately advance on Washington, D. C. and other cities virtually unchallenged. Before Monitor could reach the Roads, the Confederate ironclad had destroyed the sail frigates USS Cumberland and USS Congress and had run the steam frigate USS Minnesota aground. That night the Monitor arrived and the following morning, just before Virginia was about to finish off the Minnesota, the new Union ironclad confronted the Confederate ship, preventing her from wreaking further destruction on the wooden Union ships. A four-hour battle ensued, both ships pounding the other with close-range cannon fire, although neither ship could destroy or seriously damage the other. This was the first-ever battle fought between two armored warships and marked a turning point in naval warfare.

After the Confederates were forced to destroy Virginia in early May, Monitor sailed up the James River to support the Army during the Peninsula Campaign. The ship participated in the Battle of Drewry's Bluff later that month and remained in the area giving support to General McClellan's forces on land until she was ordered to join the blockaders off North Carolina in December. On her way there she foundered while under tow during a storm off Cape Hatteras on the last day of the year. Monitor's wreck was discovered in 1973 and has been partially salvaged. Her guns, gun turret, engine and other relics are on display at the Mariners' Museum in Newport News, Virginia. -via wikipedia

American Officer Writes a Letter to His Son on Hitler's Personal Stationery

(Photo: NBC News)

Richard Helms was a US Navy officer during World War II and later the Director of the CIA. At the end of the war in 1945, he wrote a letter to his young son on Hitler's personal stationery:

“Dear Dennis,” reads the letter from Helms, then a spy stationed in Germany. “The man who might have written on this card once controlled Europe – three short years ago when you were born. Today he is dead, his memory despised, his country in ruins. He had a thirst for power, a low opinion of man as an individual, and a fear of intellectual honesty. He was a force for evil in the world. His passing, his defeat – a boon for mankind. But thousands died that it might be so. The price for ridding society of bad is always high. Love, Daddy."

Dennis Helms found the letter among the family papers in 2002. He donated it to the CIA Museum, where it is now on display.

So.

"He had a thirst for power, a low opinion of man as an individual, and a fear of intellectual honesty. He was a force for evil in the world."

Does This Sound Like A Current World Leader You Know?
