Washington Post Says Communists are 'Freedom Fighters', Thompson Says Americans Are By Warner Todd Huston
Who is right? Thompson or the Washington Post?
On September 7th, Fred Thompson made what the Washington Post unpatriotically reported was a "grandiose claim." Thompson told Iowans that when you look back over our history "our people have shed more blood for other people's liberty than any other combination of nations in the history of the world.''
The Washington ComPost begs to differ. They cite several "combinations" of nations from ancient times to the losses of the allies fighting the Germans in both World Wars as their “proof" that others have shed more blood to free "other people" than have Americans. But, far from "proof," the Post's argument falls flat under scrutiny.
