Which kinda takes the fun and edification out of discussion or even simply witty banter.

I will give an account for my actions in the next life, come what may. I hope you have enough chutzpah to do the same, without some half-cocked rationalization for what dumbass is currently in your Oval Office.Last edited by Chaotic Void; 05-01-2020, 02:11 PM.Have You Touched Grass Today?

Do you really believe that saying CNN is a legitimate news organization is 'endorsing CNN', especially when I have specifically said they were wrong? You (and others) are acting like I'm claiming they've never made a mistake. Well actually, most of you are acting like CNN is the 'great harlot' herself and I just announced I was going the marry her.Last edited by oxmixmudd; 05-01-2020, 02:25 PM.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

Originally posted by oxmixmudd View PostI have not endorsed any lies. I said what CNN did with the kid was wrong. I said the Cuomo melo-drama was wrong. I have not defended them in those events as Trump is often defended in his lies.
But That apparently isn't good enough - is it?
Many have criticized me for supposedly demanding hatred of Trump from others - which I have never done. But look what is happening here - 5 of you are now simultaneously demanding I express seething hatred for the entirety of CNN - which is a news organization with many different reporters that functions with both a legitimate press arm and a news entertainment arm with hour long opinion/talk shows.

However, It is all over the internet (forbes, WPO, vox etc) that this is extremely unlikely to be the actual motivation. So - do you have actual links that show CNN itself pushing this as 'the reason' behind Trump's pushing the use of the drug? I can't seem to find it.
What this seems to be is a case of a story in the NYT - that brought up the issue but also noted how small his investment was - being picked up by various left leaning pundits who left out just how small that investment actually was.
And I do not endorse that sort of distortion of the facts - regardless of who did it, or regardless of which side of the tracks it hails from.Last edited by oxmixmudd; 05-01-2020, 02:44 PM.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

If Democrats REALLY wanted to go after Trump, it should be on the drone issue. Droning civilians in the Middle East - who are often innocents - just creates more terrorists. Program started by George W Bush, increased by Barack Obama, and gone underground by Donald Trump. He'd like people to think he has stepped back from the drone program but all he's done is buried the accounting of it. The numbers have to be buried or else the innocent casualties would be categorized.

Of course, there are so many hawks among Democrats that they don't want to pursue this REAL issue. It would mean they'd have to halt it once they got into power again, and they don't want to do that. The military industrial complex just loves making and using weapons.
