Who got to Paul Harvey?

Is old age turning Paul Harvey into a bitter old crank, or did someone get to him? For a while now, he has been spewing some of the same anti-war, anti-America poisonous rhetoric that the troop haters in D.C. spew.

He keeps referring to it as "the un-winnable war" or the "ill-conceived, ill-advised war". He must have a low opinion of our troops if he actually thinks it is "un-winnable". The ill-advised and ill-conceived terms are straight out of the liberal talking points.

He says that we're wasting tax money on the war. Supplying our troops with the materials, weaponry, and other things they need to for their protection is not a waste of money. Maybe ABC Radio is wasting their money paying Mr. Harvey's salary at this point

If the unpatriotic troop-hating Democrats in Washington get their way and the troops are pulled out, then it will be un-winnable. Winners never quit, and quitters never win. Our troops are not quitters, but it appears that our politicians are.

Not quitting and continuing in the war may not ensure victory, but quitting will ensure defeat. I thought all these years that Paul Harvey was smart enough to know this. Someone either got to him, or Alzheimers has set in.

I would have never thought of Paul Harvey as a flaming liberal, supporter of terrorism, and an advocate of defeat. Sadly, it appears that is what he has become.

I had hoped that in his later years he would maintain the greatness and integrity he has displayed for six decades. It looks instead like he is headed for obscurity and irrelevance.

What a waste of such immense talent. And that's the rest of this sad story.
