I have no love for Walter Kronkite. He was one of the biggest globalists on the planet.

May he rest in peace.

Yeah, I suppose.

Maybe he had a deathbed epiphany.

Back in the late 60s, when I was in Radio A School in the military, the instructors used to call him Cralter Wronkite.

I guess there was pretty much a mutual feeling about him in the military at the time.

For almost 20 years, 1968 to 1981, he was "the respected voice of TV journalism".

His "presence" as a news reader allowed him unprecedented sway over the opinion shaping realm of what passed for political discourse.

All the while he was shilling for the new world order.

Before the intertubz, he was it, the "go to guy" for millions of people.

That's one reason why the PTB hate the netz so much, it was much easier back in the day.

Cronkite was an advocate of socialism and world government---two things that libertarians and traditional conservatives have always staunchly opposed.

So it's not surprising that he wouldn't receive a lot of sympathy amongst some of the more knowledgeable members here. Whereas some of the less knowledgeable members here are apparently trying to evoke misplaced sympathy for him.

By definition a socialist or globalist will enact, support or carry out policies that result in theft, extortion and violence being brought to bear on their fellow men, all under the umbrella of "official policy".

In your BS opinion.

Very few people in this thread have actually stated that he should be cast to hell, so your over-exaggeration can be summed up quite simply as a straw man argument.

Your claim that there's too much misplaced anger and judgement, is sheer assumption on your part. You don't know if they're angry or not. What you wrongfully determine to be "anger and judgement", appears to be nothing more than insensitivity.

Advocates of socialism and world government murdered over one hundred million people in the 20th Century, and tortured, enslaved and imprisoned tens of millions more.

If that documented fact doesn't raise your ire a bit, then you're a poor excuse for a Ron Paul supporter, if you're even one to begin with.

And if they win an election you participate in, you essentially say you will abide by the result.

I don't know how you get "by definition" out of that. If people support the socialists and pay their taxes, is it necessarily theft? Not always.

Government itself is defined as an entity that holds a "monopoly on violence". Does that mean everybody in government is going to Hell for participating in that?

Does that mean ALL advocates of socialism and world government murdered these poor people? No. Did Walter Cronkite? No.

Have captialists and those advocating nationalists (often two distinct groups, sometimes not) like in Chile kill people too? Sure.

To do that, of course, we Americans will have to yield up some of our sovereignty. That would be a bitter pill. It would take a lot of courage, a lot of faith in the new order. But the American colonies did it once and brought forth one of the most nearly perfect unions the world has ever seen.”

Judge this man for his actions not his thoughts. He never had the influence to kill so many people, he never brainwashed America into believing in globalism or socialism. He was an influential broadcaster, yes, but what do they remember him as? As the man who said we are losing in Vietnam? Gee wizz, only devils are remembered for such things.

Interesting.

http://original.antiwar.com/solomon/2009/07/20/beyond-the-hype-cronkite-and-the-vietnam-war/

But facts are facts, and history is history – including what Cronkite actually did as TV’s most influential journalist during the first years of the Vietnam War. Despite all the posthumous praise for Cronkite’s February 1968 telecast that dubbed the war "a stalemate," the facts of history show that the broadcast came only after Cronkite’s protracted support for the war.

In 1965, reporting from Vietnam, Cronkite dramatized the murderous war effort with enthusiasm. "B-57s – the British call them Canberra jets – we’re using them very effectively here in this war in Vietnam to dive-bomb the Vietcong in these jungles beyond Da Nang here," he reported, standing in front of a plane. Cronkite then turned to a U.S. Air Force officer next to him and said: "Colonel, what’s our mission we’re about to embark on?"

"Well, our mission today, sir, is to report down to the site of the ambush 70 miles south of here and attempt to kill the VC," the colonel replied.

Cronkite’s report continued from the air. "The colonel has just advised me that that is our target area right over there," he said. "One, two, three, four, we dropped our bombs, and now a tremendous G-load as we pull out of that dive. Oh, I know something of what those astronauts must go through."

Next, viewers saw Cronkite get off the plane and say: "Well, colonel, it’s a great way to go to war."

The upbeat report didn’t mention civilians beneath the bombs.

Hmmmm..... The common view of hell where satan lives. Walter Cronkite said he was "happy to be at the right hand of satan". So could these people just be wishing him well? Just an observation.




Apparently that means nothing if you think differently from the "correct" way of thinking.
Note, thinking, not actually changing policy (as far as I know). My dad watched him all the time, he didn't turn into a socialist nor globalist. So, I just don't understand.

And there are some who listen to Sean Hannity and don't become neocons. That still doesn't change the fact that Conkrite purposefully influenced the political debate for the detriment of this country. He didn't get the award from a globalist think tank just for regurgitating the news.

I will say this. Sometimes people buy into globalist agendas and don't even know it. How many of the people that supported NAFTA really want a North American Union? How many people supported cap and trade without realizing they were really supporting a world wide carbon tax? I'll admit I was once fooled by both of those frauds, although I woke up to NAFTA MANY years ago. I'm sure there are people who support the Patriot Act without understanding the ramifications. The purpose globalists in the media is NOT to get everyone to agree that globalism is good. They just need enough people to support the plan 1 agenda item at a time.

No, he only was the source of the news (ie. slant) that the American people received for many years. Do you think his personal beliefs just might have been reflected in his reporting?

Hhmmm... I don't like traitors and i consider someone actively working to overthrow the form of government that our Founders gave us, to be such.

As far as Kucinich is concerned, some of us applaud his stance on the WOT and the Federal Reserve. However, most of us also take a firm stance against his socialist stand on most of the other issues. There is no reason you can't work with someone to get good bills passed, such as HR1207, on which you agree, but still not agree with them on most everything else.

There is no reason you can't work with someone to get good bills passed, such as HR1207, on which you agree, but still not agree with them on most everything else.

I totally agree with that. I guess my point was i find it odd that there was such an extreme distaste for Cronkite (which i totally understand) and yet Kucinich gets far more love than i would have ever imagined when i first started logging on to ronpaulforums.com

Oh okay, so if he agrees with us on a couple of issues, he's alright. :rolleyes: By the way Cronkite was against the war in Iraq from the beginning, so is he alright now?

I believe that not all men are inherently evil, even if they subscribe to the view of socialism. One who agrees on one or two of the issues is generally more pleasing to me as we have common ground we can both work towards.

But that's just me...

Is it an either/or issue with you? Why can't he have a good stance on the WOT and the Federal Reserve and work with him on those issues, and have rotten stances on just about everything else, so not work with him on those?

Overall, Kucinich is a socialist, so I'm not a fan. But, I do admire a couple of his stances that I have already mentioned. Why not work with him in getting bills against those two things, passed?

Kucinich is right on the war, NAFTA, the WTO, the federal reserve, the department of homeland inSecurity, the unPatriotic act, Iran, Gaza etc. I'm not the world's best mathematician, but that's more than a couple (two). Cronkite didn't get his aware from a globalist organization for nothing. Post a clip of Kucinich getting a similar award if you want to continue to make the comparison.
