More From the Loony Left

_____----********O********----______
DEZINFORMATSIA
Regarding the redistribution of income: "If we Americans are so rich and so smart, why can't we treat our citizens as well as the Finns do? They pay nothing for education at any level, including medical school or law school. Their medical care, which contributes to an infant mortality rate that is half of ours and a life expectancy greater than ours, costs relatively little. ... Unemployment benefits are good and last, in one form or another, indefinitely." --Robert Kaiser, former editor of The Washington Post**Where does the money come from for all this "free stuff" -- heaven?
From the Historical Rewrite Department: "Do you have remorse for what happened? How do you deal with that in your mind?" --NBC's Brian Williams to Dutch Van Kirk, navigator of the Enola Gay, who replied indignantly, "No, I do not have remorse."
Or maybe we have no idea: "After [London] Bombings, Few Signs Of Similar Attacks in U.S." --1 August New York Times headline ++ "Assessments Find Threat of Suicide Attacks in U.S." --5 August Times headline
From the "Antique Media": "We're emphasizing serious, old-fashioned journalism. We're going to do this well, do it smart. Do it quickly and not be held hostage by anyone or anything. And we're going to get it on between 3-6 p.m." --CNN's Wolf Blitzer, who'll be anchoring the network's new "Situation Room", which is replete with such techie eye candy as video walls and multiple plasma screens **No matter how you dress it up, the old Leftmedia is still incredibly stale!
Sometimes he got it right: "Our focus on the loss of American soldiers and now civilians on a sometimes almost daily basis, it gets so intense, somewhat I think overshadows what has been happening, in more general terms, in restructuring or structuring the country." --Recently deceased ABC anchor Peter Jennings, in April 2004
