Conscience of a Conservative: CBS-TV's amazing race to the far left.

CBS-TV's amazing race to the far left.

I do not watch this program so I just picked up on the news that CBS-TV's show Amazing Race staged a visit to a downed B-52 memorial in Hanoi, Vietnam and managed to insult every patriotic American in the process. To make matters even worse the show's contestants were required to learn a Communist propaganda song and sing it. It is bad enough to watch left wing propaganda spew out on the so-called news shows but now it is part of entertainment? I am without words to express my disgust.

As Fox News reminded us: Almost 60,000 Americans lost their lives in the Vietnam War.

‘Amazing Race’ episode set in Hanoi sparks outrage over use of B-52 as prop, communist song

The popular CBS reality show "The Amazing Race” is under fire for featuring an episode set in Hanoi, Vietnam, where contestants go to a B-52 Memorial, which is the wreckage of an American bomber plane shot down during the Vietnam War, to find the next clue in their televised round-the-world journey.

In the episode, the twisted metal of the downed plane is treated as any other prop, with a bright ‘Amazing Race’ ‘Double-U-Turn’ signed planted in front of it, signifying to contestants the next phase of their scavenger hunt.

The show also had contestants learn a song that was performed for them by children in front of a portrait of North Vietnam communist leader Ho Chi Minh, with subtitled lyrics that included “Vietnam Communist Party is glorious. The light is guiding us to victory.”

Defending the Constitution.

Our country was created as a Constitutional Republic, a nation of laws, held together by the fabric of the Constitution. The Constitution limits the powers of the government while the first ten amendments, called The Bill of Rights, guarantee the rights of We The People.

Defending the Republic.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,—That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” —The Declaration of Independence—July 4th, 1776.
