Here is Kay Zwerling: I am tired and weary of those gullible Americans who are buying into this global guilt trip, like the world disapproves of United States being belligerent and starting wars with different countries, and we need to improve our image in the world community, and the arrogant left repeatedly tell us what the American people want. All that is pure bull pucky. These complaining righteous countries who sit on their derrieres and beg us for foreign aid and then have the gall to criticize us ? what would they do if they were attacked and lost 3,000 innocent citizens? They would probably assume the dead roach position. The truth is - our country is the most compassionate and the most generous in the world. What other nation, being at war, with Germany and Japan, wars that they had initiated, conquered them, then goes back and helps them to become robust democratic societies, with us spending billions of our taxes to repair their destroyed lands? The answer is, probably none. Let’s not buy into this type of insidious guilt our enemies here and abroad are using to demoralize and weaken us and especially our military. Coincidentally, the following gem floating around underscores my remarks. Here it is: ?A movie called Flags of our Fathers depicted the radio broadcast of Tokyo Rose. During World War 2, the Japanese developed a way to demoralize the American forces. Psychological warfare experts created a message they felt would work.They gave the script to their famous broadcaster, Tokyo Rose, and every day she would broadcast the same message ? packaged in different ways. These Japanese hoped it would have a negative impact on American GI’s morale. That demoralizing message has three main points: 1. Your President is lying to you.2. This war is illegal.3. You cannot win.Does this sound familiar? It is because we are being bombarded by Tokyo Hillary, Tokyo Harry, Tokyo Teddy, Tokyo Nancy, Tokyo Murtha, etc. They have picked up the same message and are broadcasting it to our troops on Tokyo CNN, Tokyo ABC, Tokyo CBS, Tokyo NBC, etc. The only difference is that they claim to support our troops before they demoralize them. They believe the lies are okay because the end will justify the means. That’s why the liberal left lies so much. For KSCO and KOMY, this is Kay Zwerling. Copyright 2007
