I almost made a complete mess of Peter’s monitor after reading this one. Good thing I’d swallowed my coffee before I got to the end of the paragraph.

Also in the American Thinker, by Jack Kemp (not that one, the other one):

I recently got around to buying the 1996 documentary movie Fire On the Mountain, the story of the 10th Mountain Division in World War II and the contributions its members made to America after the war. Why would a bunch of hip filmmakers who show at Robert Redford’s Sundance Film Festival want to even make a movie about soldiers who killed people?

Well, first of all, the President at the time was FDR and Soviet Union was our ally, and  members of 10th Mountain Division went on to create a number of trendy ski resorts, found Nike Shoes and even The Sierra Club. Well, now the liberals could make a movie that shows they “support the troops” and show how the troops supported liberal causes after World War II. This is perfect, something for everyone. It even won a prize at the Sundance Festival. Wonderful.

Just one little, eensie, weensie, itty, bitty detail was left out. A trifle, by Hollywood standards. In showing all the sacrifices and accomplishments of the 10th Mountain Division members after the war, there is not even a 1 second mention of a certain member. As they say in the Mikado, “He surely won’t be missed.”

Who am I talking about? Former Republican presidential candidate and Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole.

Heh, then later in:

Do you think they would have left out a Senate Majority Leader from the 10th Mountain Division from this film if he were a Democrat? Does a big bear ski in the woods?

Hmm. I sure hope so:

There is a hunger to know about where we came from that will survive this liberal pap that we have been exposed to in the last 20-30 years.

Anyway, Steve Jobs wants you to read the rest of it.
