Funny thing is, Brennan?s piece appears as a rebuttal to this editorial by USA Today, not some neoconservative or right wing publication.

He's worried that the MSM are now getting their talking points from the right, and he's trying to quash that by an appeal to their patriotism.

George Washington lost a lot of battles early in the Revolutionary War, but finally figured out how to win them and kept doing so until the end. Ditto for Grant, Sherman, and Sheridan. We have here now an Administration which was handed a game-winning plan, and who is now losing battles.

I remember something about not changing horses in the middle of the stream. Well, we've changed horses, and we have what we have for the next three years.

How's that hopey-changey thing working out?

There are still, in this country, situations where some individuals are owned by others -- where the power of life and death -- even the power to determine humanity -- is vested in another person. If that other person decides you are not worthy, or you don't deserve to live, they are legally entitled to terminate your life. Here's a clip where two black men (who really should know better) defend that regime:



Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, was in favor of eugenics (racial improvement) programs, and was intensely interested in controlling the populations of people she considered to be undesirables (including blacks and the poor).

That these two men should say what they say, on behalf of Margaret Sanger's progeny, is amazing in this day and age.
