Oliver Stone revises history, again
Washington Examiner [DC], by Gregory Kane

Original Article

Posted By:StormCnter, 1/3/2013 5:27:08 AM

Fortunately for film director Oliver Stone, there is no "truth in the title" requirement for television shows. Stone´s latest directorial effort is a series of one-hour documentaries called "The Untold History of the United States." The programs run on the Showtime network. I only needed to view the first two shows to determine what the title should actually be: "A Left-winger´s Biased, Tendentious and Highly Partisan History of the United States." In the very first show, Stone and its writers presumed to lecture Americans about the Soviet Union´s contribution to defeating Germany in World War II.

All this series lacks is an endorsement from Obama, though that is surely forthcoming.

Russia´s terrible weather conditions helped beat Germany.Pushing tank brigades through 6 ft. deep mud pits with unbearable cold and wind can beat anybody.

Stone´s idiotic assertions are just 1 pc. of the overall liberal´s grand scheme to demonize this country and what it really stands for. Our real history is being eradicated from the education system to build up support for dumping the Constitution..

This country has spent countless billion over the decades trying to protect us against foreign enemies when the real enemies are from within and can finally let it all hang out with Obama as president.

Obama comes out and makes statements about helping and supporting the middle class while his minons are behind the scenes trying to kill it off. Liberals hate the middle class because they think it´s unfair they have more than other people.

If you follow the Cloward and Piven strategy to it´s bitter,hellish end,everyone in the country makes the same yearly salary.The only way to get to that tipping point is overwhelm the social safety net and declare some sort of national emergency..

There was no way for Obama to accomplish this with real Americans only,that´s why he´s opened the flood gates to illegals.

Oliver Stone knows nothing of history. Maybe he should have read any of several well documented books about the absolute horror of Stalin´s Soviet Union. In the early 90s, the Soviet archives were made available and scholars were able read and translate them into other languages. The archives show what a monster Stalin was (and Lenin too) and how even Stalin´s most loyal lieutenants were terrorised. Stalin ordered Molotov to murder his lovely and devoted Jewish wife, Polina, just to test his loyalty. That a sobbing Molotov delivered the bullet behind her ear, should dispell any notion that America could have or should have worked with such a sadistic maniac. And too bad Oliver Stone wasn´t old enough to have been on orders to invade the Japanese mainland. Maybe he would think differently about our use of the "A" bomb, whose secrets by the way, Soviet spies had already provided to the Red Tsar. All should read the chilling "Stalin, the Court of the Red Tsar" by Simon Sebag Montefiore.

A few years ago, a friend of my son who was born in russia but grew up here in the USA, told me that the ONLY thing the USA truly contributed to WWII was the guns and ammunition. That the brave russians were the ones that, solely, defeated Germany.
My father was a WWII vet and I could not believe the shaking that overtook me and the anger at the disrepect and falsehoods this young man said about my country. The country that gave him and his russian family such a good life.
In the last ten years I have met a number of people living and working, legally, in this country, but consider themselves part of another country and, according to their own words, are just here for the money. They have no love or loyalty for the USA.

I watched the first show and couldn´t believe how inaccurate the info was being presented. Then I saw it was produced and narrated by O. Stone and new why. I watched a few more shows and sure enough it was mostly anti American propaganda. Why don´t these hollywiedo´s just leave if they hate this country so much.

Eliana Johnson reports that four Republican members of the Senate Judiciary — Jeff Sessions, Chuck Grassley, Mike Lee, and Ted Cruz — are calling for transparency from their GOP colleagues in the “Gang of Eight” that is drafting immigration reform legislation. In a letter to John McCain, Lindsey Graham, Marco Rubio, and Jeff Flake, the four Judiciary Committee members express concern that an immigration reform bill will be rushed through Congress without proper oversight in the form of hearings and robust debate. They note that the Gang has “secretly met for months” without consulting

The Supreme Court could soon end one of the federal government´s most archaic practices. Since the 1930s, the Agriculture Department has turned California raisin growers into pawns of its Raisin Administrative Committee, which can commandeer up to half of the farmer´s crop and then pay them little or nothing for the product. Marvin Horne, a 67-year-old raisin farmer in Fresno, Calif., was fined almost $700,000 for refusing to surrender control of much of his harvest to the government committee in 2002. Horne, who has been growing raisins for more than 40 years,

There are many who scoff at Andrew Cuomo’s chances in a presidential primary campaign, but I am not among them. His name is an iconic Democratic brand, he’s forceful on the stump and a prodigious fund-raiser. Besides, somebody has to win the nomination. Of course, there are hurdles. Saint Hillary is gearing up to run, and there will be a scrum among contenders, probably including Vice President Joe Biden, competing just to be Clinton’s top rival. The scenario, then, is daunting but doable — or at least it was,

A great superpower, weakened by economic calamity at home and staggering under the debt from years of war in the Middle East, finally collapses. A new political best-seller, or an apocalyptic Hollywood blockbuster? Neither — it´s the story told by a 1622 shipwreck whose treasures were desperately needed to shore up the finances of the struggling Spanish Empire. The galleon Buen Jesus y Nuestra Senora del Rosario was one of 28 ships in the Tierra Firme fleet; all were sailing from the New World back to Spain, laden with colonial treasures,

How the ´indispensable man´ became

Historian James Thomas Flexner referred to George Washington as "the indispensable man." Americans all know he was a general, but have you ever wondered what grade of general? How many stars did Gen. Washington have? In today´s Army, a one-star general is a brigadier; two stars is a major general; three stars is a lieutenant general; four stars is just plain general. During World War II, Congress created the five-star general, the modern rank of general of the Army. There had been an earlier grade that was called general of the Army,

On March 30, three days after North Korea severed a military hotline with the South and announced that South Korean President Park Geun-hye “will meet a miserable ruin,” the country declared a state of war. “The time has come to stage a do-or-die final battle,” an official statement said. Meanwhile, many of South Korea’s youth were worried about something else. A 25-year-old pop star named Seo In-guk had appeared on a popular reality TV show the night before and, in a misstep that quickly dominated online conversations, had washed his strawberries incorrectly.

If you had an extortion investigation in your "what twists the Rutgers basketball scandal will take next" pool, well, collect your winnings. Also, buy a lottery ticket because you may be telepathic. Because the F.B.I. is investigating Eric Murdock, the whistleblowing former assistant coach, for extortion. University officials let it slip to The New York Times´ Steve Eder that Federal Bureau of Investigation officers recently visited the campus and met with athletic director Tim Pernetti sometime before Pernetti was fired on Friday. They´re trying to determine whether or not Murdock, the former director of player development,

Imagine the pitch to a History Channel executive for the smash hit The Bible. Here’s one scenario: Producers Roma Downey and Mark Burnett: “Hi, we want to produce a story that appeals to all age groups. It’s has everything: love, lust, greed, war, self-sacrifice and redemption. It’s called ‘The Bible.’” Executive: “Could you repeat that? You said ‘The Bible’?” RD and MB: “Yes – we want to retell the Bible for this generation. And we think we can make money doing it. We’ve done a lot of market research —there is no competition out there.”

Since the Shermans of General Patton´s Third Army crossed the Rhine on March 22, 1945, there have been American tanks in Germany. No more, as John Vandiver of Stars and Stripes reports. The U.S. Army’s 69-year history of basing main battle tanks on German soil quietly ended last month when 22 Abrams tanks, a main feature of armored combat units throughout the Cold War, embarked for the U.S. The departure of the last M-1 Abrams tanks coincides with the inactivation of two of the Army’s Germany-based heavy brigades.

The city councilman who bungled his way into federal bribery charges is also a total bonehead in his kooky heathen religion — whose members wear medieval garb, make sacrifices to multiple gods and compete in combat games. Dan Halloran (R-Queens) — who was arrested Tuesday as the suspected bag man in state Sen. Malcolm Smith’s alleged plot to buy his way onto the mayoral ticket — has been publicly flogged and lost a spear-throwing contest as part of his Theodish punishments. Halloran converted in the 1980s from Catholicism to the pre-Christian Germanic religion, whose believers drink mead

“Nice puff piece on San Francisco’s Trash Inspectors” in the Atlantic, one of Ace’s co-bloggers quips. “I can’t quite put my thumb on why California has a debt issue. It couldn’t be paying people to do stuff like this can it?” The piece highlights — I take it back, praises — nanny-state intrusiveness to the nth-degree: To help improve the city’s landfill diversion rate, Slattery and his crew pound the pavement, both in the early morning and in the evening, keeping tabs on what’s being thrown out and educating people about the three-bin system.

Ninety million. People not in the labor force grew by 663,000, and now 90 million. That´s the labor force participation rate. This is 1979 levels.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter. But I´ve long felt we lack a solid theoretical underpinning for easily discussing these issues, and why precisely it is that

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

But Clinton warned that there is still so much to do to promote women´s rights in America.

The Obama White House is scrambling to blame Friday’s abysmal March jobs numbers on the sequester’s trimming of the rate of growth in federal budgets that have yet to fully commence. After the Labor Department announced that a mass exodus of 663,000 workers left the U.S. workforce last month and that job creation fell 112,000 jobs short of projections, Obama’s top economic adviser Alan B. Krueger, took to the White House blog to blame the sequester: It is important to bear in mind that the March household and payroll surveys are the first monthly surveys to look

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

In the five pages of the settlement that were available for public review, the settlement amount had been marked out.
