Radio Pundits
On the Michael Medved show today he attempted to down play Dr. Ron Paul's comments to the question on big oil. He stated something to the affect that Dr. Paul reference to Iran in 1953 had nothing to do with the question and thus foreign policy had nothing to do with the question. He went on further to state that the Iranian government in 1953 was a pro communist government. I called the radio show to correct Mr. Medved yet got no where, go figure. I also sent this letter to his show and encourage all of us to start attacking these radio pundits as they are more likely to respond to our concerns. The letter went like this:
Iranian Government in 1953 was a pro-western government that chased out communist interest in the Northern part of the country before being over thrown through covert effort of SIS and the CIA. The reason for the covert effort was the fact that the elected democratic government had nationalized the oil fields and pushed out western oil interest in them such as BP. Thus the covert effort to overthrow the government was made successfully by SIS and the CIA.

I could go on and on with list of references that denote what took place in 1953 and the relevance of Dr. Ron Paul's Statement but i won't. What i will do is ensure through my networking groups that they give you pressure to issue and statement of retraction and acknowledgment on the subject.
My pals its time to start giving the radio pundits history lessons too and we should ban together to do so. Flood his email, call his show. Let him and the rest know we want to hear Ron Paul taken seriously and our concerns.
