Premiere of GBTV and the Rewriting of History

I watched the premiere of GBTV last night, while I’m not sure I like the format, I agree with Glenn’s comments about the rewriting of history.

I vaguely remember learning that the Statue of Liberty had a hole in it and that is was caused by a rocket. I don’t remember when or how I learned this. If I ever knew more details I forgot them. The fact that I don’t remember more of the story makes Glenn’s point. Why is this not common knowledge?

I think Glenn has it right; the left focuses on names and dates so they can rewrite history as they want people to learn it. The emphasis on the names and dates keeps it so boring that kids don’t want to dig deeper. They just memorize what they need to pass the test. All the while in the background the left is creating a new version of history that fits their agenda. All they need to do is wait 20 years for everyone’s memory to fuzzy then role out the new “history”. Since that is all the next generation will ever know they will never question it.

You can see this in the book or movie 1984 by George Orwell. Despite all the governments attempts to control the thoughts of the adults a few still remember what it used to be like. The kids, however, have never known anything different so they don’t question it – they are proud to help Big Brother.

If you think it can’t happen – open your eyes! It is already happening. True to Orwellian form we are watching as President Obama and the left redefines our relationship with Israel. When did Israel become the terrorists and Hamas the peace loving people that just want a homeland? Do you remember or has it always been that way?

I don’t want to live in the revisionist history world. More importantly, I don’t want my kids to have to live in that world. I will be one of the 10% that will help bring about change.
