Former CBS News president Richard Salant (1961 - 64 and 1966 - 79) explained the major media's role: "Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have." ...and to this very day most Americans haven't noticed they're being brained washed! ~ N. Hooben

Hearing Voices
"The easily fooled are easily fooled." But most of us are wiser than the easy folks... (at least I hope so). Obama somehow continues with his Alinsky*-like speeches as if he were postulating Einstein's definition of insanity, "Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results." How many times has he said, "If you want your doctor, you can keep your doctor."? Here (the speech below) he attempts to place what we have heard growing up as incessant (the same thing over and over again). Well I'm here to tell you I never heard of such incessant lies in my entire lifetime...and no, you don't want to know how old I am...older than most of you, if you have a need to know. Knowing the Obama mindset, what he is really saying is that he is the tyrannical one while throwing the blame on some unheard voice that he hopes you will reject. ~ Norman E. Hooben

A Sign Of Hope: Runners Give Spontaneous Tribute To 95-Year-Old WWII Vet
"We can't all be heroes, some of us must stand on the curb and clap as they go by." ~ Will Rogers
"And then there are heroes who stand on the curb and get the recognition they deserve." ~Storm'n Norm'nWith so much anti-military, anti-American flag, and just plain old anti-American rhetoric coming from the current administration, the courts, the deans of higher education, and the left wing main stream media a sign of hope remains in our youth...or anyone who participated in this very patriotic gesture (see video ↓). ~ Norman E.

Runners Give Spontaneous Tribute To 95-Year-Old WWII Vet Who Came To Cheer
The following commentary from: Gawker.com
A
95-year-old WWII veteran just wanted to cheer on the runners who were passing
by his house. But to his surprise, they were more interested in cheering for him—with many of the
runners leaving the race to shake his hand and thank him for his service.
"They
hugged me and kissed me and the young men shook my hands," the 95-year-old
later told his neighbor—a reporter for the San Jose Mercury News—who
caught part of the spontaneous tribute on her cell phone. "I never knew
there were that many people that would do that."
"I
never got recognition in my life," he added.
According
to his neighbor, Joe is hard of hearing but "sharp." But sadly, his
health is deteriorating:
He swims nearly every day at the YMCA or the senior center.
Still, ambulances come and go from his house late at night when he feels his
heart race and worries he's having a heart attack. He tells me from time to
time he doesn't think he's going to live much longer. He's had a good long
life, he says, and is ready to join his wife.
The
runners were competing in an 8k to benefit the Pat Tillman Foundation in honor
of the young NFL player who left his football career to join the Army after the
9/11 attacks. Tillman was killed in friendly fire in 2004. According to Joe's
neighbor, swarms of people continued to approach him after she stopped taping.
"I
thought the video caught a moment in time that was honest," his son Matt
said. "There was nothing staged about it. It was an honest response from
honest people. We don't see that too much."
He
told the reporter that it was the most excited he's seen his father in a long
time.
