#1 "But if a tie is established between Chavez and al-Qaeda (and I grant that's a big "if") how will Americans look upon Barack Obama's pledge to conduct face-to-face diplomacy with Chavez, without preconditions?"

The Lefties and the Dems (butI repeat myself) will still think it's a peachy idea.

#2 Don't you know? The Global War on Terrorism is a Republican myth generated to funnel billions to Karl Rove's buddies in the arms and aerospace industry........or at least that is how the MSM wants to play it.

Terrorism??? What's that? They are just "freedom fighters", "insurgents" or some disgruntled minority wanting a place at the table..........The Dems will never get a grip on this because they are all closet Leninists and would support anything that weakens the USA.

We will never be safe with a Democratic president. In fact, if FDR was alive today, the Dems would think he was a conservative.

#3 if FDR was alive today, the Dems would think he was a conservative.

#5 On January 5, [2003] Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez's former personal pilot dropped a bombshell that has been ignored by just about every major U.S. news organization:

When is someone going to explain the reason why all of the major newspapers here in the US act as propaganda machines by foreign entities? They are worse than Pravda. While I don't think that the individuals that work for them are even aware that they are tools of forces beyond their control, I do think it is obvious that we are being denied stories that expose how these forces are interconnected with dictators such as Chavez, Castro, and others who work against the interests of America.

#7 Are you saying that because it wouldn't sell papers is the reason why most major American newspapers act as propaganda machines for anti-American interests?

#8 Actually it is the kind of stuff that does Zebulon Angavick7428. It's the kind of red meat dirt that does sell papers when splashed on the front page. What we have instead is defeatism and socialist outrage against the system. There is no wonder that the Newspaper is about to go extinct in the USA.

#9 Newspaper ad revenues are imploding. From memory down 15% in the last year alone. Newspapers as we know them won't be around in a couple of years.
