PBS’ Phony Twice a Year “Patriotism” Continues Tonight
While I am away in observance of the Jewish holiday of Shavuot, many of you may plan to watch tonight’s PBS’ annual National Memorial Day Concert, hosted by Gary Sinise and Joe Montegna. Don’t watch it. Or if you choose to, remember that this is fakery by PBS designed to get you to either donate to your local PBS station or support the continued government funding of this anti-American, anti-Israel, anti-Semitic, left-wing propaganda programming through its continued government funding.
As I’ve noted for the past several years, while the Memorial Day concert is a touching show, it’s also a fraud and very hypocritical. That’s because PBS a/k/a Palestinian Broadcasting Service spends 363 days of the year showing anti-American far-left biased reports and programs against our troops as they risk their lives and some make the ultimate sacrifice that we remember tomorrow on Memorial Day.
The rest of the year, when PBS is not showing its rare non-political show (“Antiques Roadshow”), the tax-funded television channel is preaching against our soldiers, the wars they tried to fight (while they are being told to build roads and hand out candy to those who want to murder them), and the service they give to America, many of them with the ultimate sacrifice which we remember on Memorial Day. And when it comes to Muslims–especially Palestinians and those out to kill our soldiers–PBS is always the advocate, bending over backward, for example, to tell us, during Black History month, that Black slaves were Muslim princes. (Few, if any, Black slaves in America were actually Muslim, but almost all Black slaves were sold into slavery BY Muslims, a fact PBS will never tell you.) Last June, just a couple of days after Memorial Day and its concert special, PBS broadcast a two-hour propaganda special promoting Mohammed and Islam.
And, once again, joining Sinise and Montegna tonight, is Colin Powell, the left-wing phony and pretend-Republican who took money from Hezbollah-backed billionaires to make a speech in Lebanon. Oh, and the man who endorsed Barack Hussein Obama for President four years ago, after years of pandering Republicans in the Bush family propping Powell up, despite his leftist foreign policy leanings. He is all over the stage of tonight’s Memorial Day “celebration” on PBS.
The fact is that the typical viewer of PBS is the aging hippie, a 67-year-old cat lady who protested against our soldiers who fought–and many who died–in Vietnam. That’s the real “patriotism” of PBS–its programming executives, donors (if you don’t count American taxpayers who are held hostage), and viewers. They are patriots to the haters of America, not to America itself. And like much of the antique furniture you’ll see on PBS’ “Antiques Roadshow,” you shouldn’t be fooled by the thin veneer of patriotism coated on this fake.
On the other nights of the year, you can see “specials” such as PBS’ “Behind the Lens,” which shows us sympathetic portrayals of extremist Palestinian Muslims in Jordan lying on immigration forms to get visas to the U.S., and HAMASniks from Chicago, like Hatem Abudayyeh, a friend of Obama and the subject of federal investigations into funding for Palestinian terrorist groups, including HAMAS. But on PBS, just a few years ago, he was portrayed as a “nice American boy” who goes back to the old country to find a wife. . . and who tells his Muslim friends who long to go to America that America is a bad place, that we are horrible people.
Yup, the same America our soldiers died for, the soldiers we remember tomorrow–the same soldiers PBS pretends to care about, tonight. G-d Bless Their Souls and May They Rest In Peace. And may we never rest until PBS is defunded. As I always say, PBS stands for Pure Bull S–t or Pan-Islamic BS. Take your pick.
I like Gary Sinise and Joe Montegna for the things they do for our soldiers and the genuine support of them that comes from true patriotism. That’s something that cannot ever be said, though, for PBS, and they are helping PBS’ pretense with their participation in this fraud that they could perform on another network.
This weekend (and hopefully every other day of the year), we remember our soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice for America tomorrow. PBS only pretends to remember them tonight so that you will sacrifice the contents of your wallet to the continuation of its anti-American programming.
Is that really what our soldiers died for? Not exactly.

I always DVR the show and watch the artists I like, usually Trace Adkins. Then I turn it off and erase the rest of the show, in honor of the soldiers.
