This says it all.

"We sent men with rifles into Afghanistan and Iraq, and we kept our best weapons in their silos. Even now, we're standing there dying, daring to do nothing decisive because we've declared ourselves to be better than our terrorist enemies, more moral, more civilized. Our image is at stake, we insist.

"But we didn't come this far because we are made of sugar candy. Once upon a time, we elbowed our way onto and into this continent by giving smallpox-infected blankets to Native Americans. Yes, that was biological warfare. And we used every other weapon we could get our hands on, to grab this land from whomever, and we grew prosperous. And yes, we greased the skids with the sweat of slaves.

"And so it goes with most great nation-states, which feeling guilty about their savage pasts, eventually civilize themselves out of business, and wind up invaded and ultimately dominated by the lean, hungry, up-and-coming who are not made of sugar candy."

I do not agree with slavery and yes the USA was wrong many times before in the past, but History does repeat it's self. Rome, England, France, Russia, etc. All great empires do have an ending and they all follow along the lines of what Mr Harvey is saying.

Why would you be banned? Because the old man speaks the truth??? 😕

No...I just think this is going to be a "put your helmet" on thread. I would predict 3-5 "you are an idiot" posts.

Paul Havey is a conservative.

Paul Harvey is hoping to become Andy Rooney. Both of them are fossilized tards. 😛

 

[halik]

somewhat true... you can't fight a war against someone that's morally inferior. The movie Apocalypse Now deals with the same topic albeit in the vietnam war setting.

I enjoy both of them, they are legends of the brodcasting field. I hope they both live forever.

I don't see what the problem is, it's true.

Were stripping them naked, attacking them with dogs and attaching electrodes to their nether region I think were as nasty as we were when the ship landed on plymouth rock.

The problem is that any time you say something that might be considered politicly incorrect or any mention of slavery, people get all worked up over nothing.

No, if we were as nasty as we were when the ship landed on Plymouth Rock, we'd be doing the acts you cited on a regional level, not just in some pisshole jail.

baring proof I don't believe that came from Paul Harvey. Whaile I havn't listened to him in a while it just does not strike me as something he would say.
