Take None for Granted
September 27th, 2006 by rsm
Saw this on BlackFive. It’s a public service spot to air on MSNBC detailing the sacrifice made by one of our finest during this war, proclaiming his name without shame and explaining how he was awarded the Medal of Honor. Posthumously, however.
I haven’t had regular TV or cable hooked up in my home in 6 years and even then it was a roommate who watched it, not me. When I have seen it in bars and at other people’s homes, I have never seen anything like this, usually only smarmy newscasters inserting themselves into the story by adding their own “or is it?” or “but many disagree.” They make me sick.
We needed this to start long ago. I want more of this. I want this on broadcast television. There is nothing in terms of Pro-war propaganda here, only honoring those who have more than earned it.
Write to MSNBC and encourage more things like this and then write to the networks to ask why they haven’t picked up on it yet. I want the public to know the names of these men and women like SFC Paul R. Smith. They deserve nothing less from us.
Finally! This is great.
Oh now, that is how it’s done. Bravo!
