Strengthening Constitutional Self-Government

No Left Turns

Media Kudos

Hugh Hewitt is right. When the mainstream media do something right and good, we should be near the first of the line to say so, instead of merely making criticism at their daily wrongs. Both the NY Times and the WaPo are running features about each victim of the VT atrocity. As has been often said, we give too much attention to the bad guys. In my next Reagan book, I decided that I would not include the name of his attempted assassin. He’s had enough attention; no more from me.

"In my next Reagan book, I decided that I would not include the name of his attempted assassin."

Good call! And maybe you should also tweak things just a tiny bit while you're at it, and say that Reagan bravely tackled the 6'11" monster to the ground and disarmed him, thus also saving a nearby group of Girl Scouts, as well as his own Secret Service men?

I'm waiting for someone here to elaborate on how these mass shootings, which are very disproportionately an American phenomenon, are actually further evidence, oddly enough, that America is the greatest country in the world.
