Read the Brooks piece John (or the trainor book). That NYT bs is nonsense. You dont read the paper--you are just repeating a mantra. Brooks is a necon conservative who has been pro iraq. General Traynor is a patriot and if Ralph Peters analysis is good now it was good then. You guys are sounding like a broken record. When you get old (g) you will be sitting around the senior center like armchair folks from prior gens who lamented on how we lost china, and then how we lost vietnam. You are doomed to repeat their errors and you will be wrong.

True, but what do we do about it? It's not like the problem isn't known at this point, and yet I don't see conservatives making any inroads into the legacy media. If anything the two coasts have just become more virulent. Same with academia. Somebody has to be thinking about this stuff, but I don't see much written about it; certainly no planning. There's David Horowitz with his critique of academia and that's it. No logical longterm way suggested to deal with the MSM.
