LewRockwell.com Blog: Propagandus Interrupti: "One nice thing about the timing of the announcement of the new pope: it disrupted the cable 'news' networks' planned day-long devotions to 'remembering Oklahoma City ten years later.' The day before, as I recall, was the twelfth anniversary of the Waco atrocity, but I don't recall the media getting nostalgiac over that. 'Remembering Oklahoma City' helps condition minds to believe that terrorists abound in America, but that a strong federal police force (aka 'Homeland Security') will protect against such threats. 'Remembering Waco' would remind us that a strong federal police force IS the terrorist threat!"
