MAJOR GARRETT EARNS A FIELD PROMOTION TO LT. COLONEL

BigGovernment- Major Garrett of CBS News did what no one else in the White House press corps managed to do on Wednesday: he asked President Barack Obama a real question.

For his trouble, Garrett was rebuked by the president, criticized by his colleagues, and accused of racism by celebrities.

Yet he succeeded in bringing the plight of four captive Americans to the forefront of national debate, and set a rare example of journalistic integrity in what has otherwise been a dark age.

For that meritorious service to the nation, Garrett has earned a field promotion. Call him Lieutenant Colonel Garrett.

Dana Bash of CNN, who displayed great integrity during the 2011 Weinergate scandal, chose this occasion to criticize Garrett for being “disrespectful” to President Obama. And she was not the only critic.

To the Beltway chorus, Garrett’s question was more offensive than the fact that four Americans remain imprisoned in Iran because Obama has left them there.

Garrett’s exact words to the president were: “Can you tell the country, sir, why you are content, with all the fanfare around this deal, to leave the conscience of this nation, the strength of this nation, unaccounted for in relation to these four Americans?”  MORE

  3. I have to keep the remote in hand when watching even our best anti-LSM network, FNC, Approximately every 15 minutes, by my unscientific labwork, the b-ho’s face and voice come on. I don’t understand…
