An Adminstration on the Fringe
Read this article from the Daily Caller and you will truly begin to understand that the people in positions of advisement in this administration are truly on the fringe of society.
We had one of Obama’s first mentors, Jeremiah Wright, black liberation theologist, and now we have Jim Wallis, a new age pastor who thinks Jesus was a communist. We have William Ayers, rapist and terrorist, as the man who kicked off the president’s career. We have Cass Sunstein who thinks animals should be able to sue you and that your speech, if it goes against the government, should be taxed. We have Ezekiel Emanuel, doctor from hell, recommending what should be spent on health procedures and whom should ultimately receive those treatments. We have Rahm Emanuel who understands the opportunism of the Hegelian Dialectic — never let a good [created] crisis go to waste. We have seen Christmas ornaments bearing the likeness of mass murderer Chairman Mao hanging on the White House Christmas tree and communications advisers who admire Mao for his political strategies. We have a president who openly admits that he feels its his job to spread the wealth around from you to me… I could go on but you get the picture.
And now this…
“Only government can implement policies and subsidies to provide an institutional framework for quality journalism.” Does that statement give you chills?
How about this one: “The news is not a commercial product. It is a public good, necessary for a self-governing society. Once we accept this, we can talk about the kind of media policies and subsidies we want.”
Or this one? “In the end, there is no real answer but to remove brick-by-brick the capitalist system itself, rebuilding the entire society on socialist principles.”
These are the sentiments of Robert McChesney, a self-professed neomarxist media scholar and the founder of the lobbying group and think tank Free Press. McChesney’s statements should worry you, perhaps even fill you with dread. Not because the rantings of a lefty professor are particularly scary in and of themselves, but because McChesney’s views are having a direct effect on the Obama administration’s policies on the media. Don’t believe it? Check out a recent report from the Federal Trade Commission entitled, “Potential Policy Recommendations to Support the Reinvention of Journalism.” Portions sounds like they were written by McChesney himself.
And they thought Rand Paul was extreme for questioning the limits to which government should be allowed to interfere in our daily lives?
Whew.
