You're better than this rogue. Here is a link to a fact check.

The purported lie revolves around Biden's intended meaning for "I got my start", which from context is 'in politics', not 'in school'
And of course he'd repeat the claim In that Delaware State DID support him in his senate bid.
no- this is not even close to the pathological lying we have all become so used to from Trump. It doesn't appear to be a lie or even an exaggeration. Or are you referring to something else?

Claiming it doesn't exist is flat Earth level denial.

It's also likely that many of the examples you're suggesting were based on false equivalences. I've seen too many of those to discount that possibility.
Essentially, OMB is the sentiment that Trump is bad, and therefore corrupt actions taken by democrats are justified by that logic, or complaints about those behaviors are dismissed by that logic.

more to the point, here is the text of the retraction issued by the Washington times, whose original article was a source for this misinformation:
It also looks a lot like some sort of projection. Trump is indeed a serial liar. Its obvious and painful.. So to make Biden look no better than Trump, the Trump support media must find a way to cast him as a serial liar also. But I see no evidence of anything even close to what we've seen from Trump the last four years. This claim in specific doesn't hold up to scrutiny.

However, making openly snide remarks to one correspondent about another, does appear somewhat petty and rather petulant."It ain't necessarily so

Of course the phrase "orange man bad" isn't used. But then again saying the phrase isn't used is a straw-man in and of itself. OMB is used to reflect the sentiment that is so often used to justify different behaviors. So what if Biden was accused of sexual assault, you can't bring that up because Trump himself has been accused by many more women (OMB).
Essentially, OMB is the sentiment that Trump is bad, and therefore corrupt actions taken by democrats are justified by that logic, or complaints about those behaviors are dismissed by that logic.
No one is justified doing something wrong because others are also doing wrong. If Biden committed actual sexual assault, it was wrong. And I've been making that point over and over again for the last four years.
But when it comes to a matter of degree, Trump exceeds most if not all who have come before him, taking corruption to levels heretofore only seen commonly in 3rd world dictatorships or Russia and other former soviet block members. That is not some trivial point of contention, and it does allow for a clear choice between 'horrible' and 'better', which is what most conservatives supporting the Biden presidency over a Trump second term are engaged in.Last edited by oxmixmudd; 12-09-2020, 08:46 AM.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

At post #113 you asked "Do you think he should be punished and if so, what would you consider to be a fit punishment?" You appear to have miscomprehended the purpose of this thread. It was not started to discuss meting out punishments.
This thread was in response to a lack of any comments criticising or condemning DiGenova's remarks which were unethical and fascist.
A wicked comparison you need to take responsibility for imo.
If Goebbels deserved x as a punishment, then what punishment does DiGenova deserve in your opinion?
If you agree that there is no real punishment DiGenova deserves, as you should, as any rational person would, then you will have to concede that your comparison was wicked and reckless in the extreme.
