Shhh Noel...nobody is suppose to know all the interconnections between the press, the msm and the administration when it comes to the left...objectivity isn't in their vocabulary, never has been for years and years, if ever really.

Btw...NewsBusters just got mentioned by Rush and he is thanking all here for the defense of him, as he did a lot of others.

Ah, the subjects we won't be hearing about on This Week.. would be endless.

Oppose the nomination of Dr. Susan Rice as representative to the United Nations -An open letter to Senator John Kerry, Foreign Relations committee of the U.S. Senate, 7 December 2008

Susan Rice, of course, is a veteran of the  Clinton State Department, where she specialized in African affairs as an assistant secretary of state.  She served in that capacity from 1997 to the end of the Clinton term. During that period of time, the HIV/Aids pandemic to spiral out of control, as well as the malaria crisis. Millions were dying, millions more were being infected.  Folks on the left, like David Corn of "The Nation," became rather outspoken about the coldness of the Clinton African policies. He wrote:

In other words, the prevailing view was, these people should die quietly.

After the Clinton disaster in Rwanda (ask Obama foreign affairs advisor Samatha Powers -she's the one that called Hillary "a monster"), Pres. Clinton went to Rwanda, in 1997, and sheepishly did not apologize, but did promise "Never Again." From that moment to the end of the Rice tenure as assistant Sec. of State and African affairs specialist, an immediate horrific civil war broke out next door to Rwanda, in the D. R. Congo involving the gangs (armies) of 6 nations. By the end of Rice's tenure, more people had died in this civil war, than in any other single conflict in the world since WWII - and estimated 3 1//2 million, with some sources suggested 5 million. Numerous genocides have been reported, with rivers being clogged with bodies - as in Rwanda, before.

Of course, during this same period, we also had other monstrous conflicts rise up in Africa such as in Sierra Leone, the Ivory Coast, and Angola, where perhaps another 100 to 150,000 were slaughtered. Remember "shirt sleeves or long sleeves, sir?" 

Liberia was heating up, as well. Was Rev. Jessie Jackson a part of the State Department policy? Jesse, Liberia and Blood Diamonds 

Never Again. Well, never again would our MSM report on what was going on during Bill Clinton's watch.

I'd bet there's so much to learn. Wouldn't it be interesting to be an investigative executive producer for a worthless show like This Week, and invite Susan Rice in for a chat?

For starters, we could ask her about how President George Bush came into office and dealt with the tragedy unfolding in Liberia. How'd he do? Well, here's what the president of Liberia, Ellen Sirleaf Johnson, (the first freely elected woman president in African history)  had to say, this past October, about President Bush: 

"Under the leadership of President Bush [..] .. What a legacy, Mr. President..." "..America's commitment to democracy and development and to supporting low-income countries around the world has been a signature of foreign policy achievement for President Bush, Secretary Rice [Condi Rice], the bipartisan support of the U.S. Congress, and the American people. .." 

Question for the new Dr. Rice: Ms. Secretary. Is it too much to hope for, that the Obama administration, can live up to the high standards set by the Bush administration; that of leading, rather than turning a blind eye to the suffering and tragedy? 

It'd be rather like, "The Day the Earth Stood Still."

God save us all.
