Patton's take on WWII

[JakeStarkey]

Poor George Patton has been a dupe of the liberal media since he slapped that malingerer during WW2. The movie "Patton" was played practically for laughs by quirky actor George C. Scott and all Patton's excentricities were out there for all to see. Hollywood could have played MacArthur for laughs but they didn't. Instead they offered a serious actor like Gregory Peck to play it straight and stick to the script. No mention of the "dougout doug" sneers from the Troops or the fact that he lost an entire army within four months of WW2 hostilities. In all fairness MacArthur was well past his prime in WW2 and when he lost another army in Korea and ranted to the media about nuking Red China before he was finally relieved of duty by Truman. Still Hollywood relies on cliches rather than history.

That is the far right that does that
