Neocon Media Rant: How ‘Awesome’ is America?

21st Century Wire says…
It’s still astounding what you hear from the mouths of some of the country’s most familiar faces…
FOX News has become almost legendary for its plastic line of female ‘news’ pundits, which includes more than a few debutantes, bad nose jobs and plastic surgery sessions gone wrong. Beyond the looks and the teenaged rhetoric, however, FOX talking heads reveal a deeper, fundamentally flawed world view.
One veteran American journalist shares his insight on the reemergence of the narrow Neoconservative reality in the wake of the Senate’s Torture Report last week…
Consortium News reports: America has an extraordinary capacity to submerge unpleasant truths about its past and present, from African-American slavery and Native-American genocide to bloodbaths in Vietnam and Iraq. Now faced with clear evidence of torture, one cheerleader simply says the U. S. is ‘awesome’.
Fox News host Andrea Tantaros is facing some well-deserved ridicule for refuting the stomach-turning Senate Intelligence Committee report on torture by declaring that, ‘The United States is awesome. We are awesome’ and claiming that the Democrats and President Barack Obama released the report because they want ‘to show us how we’re not awesome.’
