The Times they are a changing

Whatever happened to patriotism, feeling good about America, thankful for the rights you have, Mom’s apple pie, all the things they had in WWII. The New York Times has been doing more damage against America then two hundred Al Qaeda ever could and the government just sits there allowing them to get away with it. Here is a tip, arrest the publishers and reporters for anti-American activities and espionage against America, maybe then they will realize that when they talk, men die.

Things such as this would have never happened during WWII, actually for a number of reasons, but primarily, patriotism was the chef reasoning back then, that and the knowledge that the Roosevelt administration would have had them locked up and the key thrown away until after the war. Times were different then, people cared about America, for what it stood for, today that has all been thrown of the window as the media digs into every secret anti-terrorist tool presently in use and publishes it as the reporters all sit back waiting for their awards knowing they will be the next heroes of the media.

Someone needs to tell these people that national secrets during a time of war are just that, a secret, not the morning headlines. Perhaps it sells magazines and newspapers, but it also gets people killed and they simply have no problem with that and that in itself is the sin.

I have often stated that I am a strong supporter of rights issues, but when it comes to the security of our country, that is different and when it comes to war, that is on an entirely different level altogether. However, here lies the problem, the media wants the Bush administration to arrest them, charge them with something, because that is more news, more sales and it is great for their bottom line.

Here is a tip for the New York Times, shut the hell up and have a cup of coffee. Whatever it takes to put a damper on your anti-American activities just shut the hell up.
