John Huntsman Resigns as US Ambassador to Russia
So you read the report?
If your point is that the dems are hypocrites, I agree. That doesn't justify hypocrisy on the right.
I don’t care about his tax returns. That said, this is the sort of thing that highlights the hypocrisy of the populist new right. Hannity, Rush, and all their fan boys would be livid if BHO did some...
I think the effect of polling on the electorate is a really interesting topic. I'd be interested to see if there's been any research on how negative or positive polling numbers effect voter turn out...
Manafort in the news again...this time for feeding polling data to a Russian operative and lying about it.
Never waste a good opportunity to predict civil war and blame it on George Soros.
I’m not for socialism...you know that. I just think the dichotomy that socialism is evil and capitalism is pure is false. Sometimes I wish the right’s embrace of capitalism was more like Churchill’s...
Pure socialism and pure capitalism are amoral. Men are impure, so you never see either. What do you make of the socialistic sentiment in Acts 2?
I certainly see narcissism as a bigger factor than greed. Not that one is necessarily better than the others. I think most folks who get where he’s gotten are narcissists.
What do you see as the distinction b/w greed and narcissism? Both are ultimately a means of exalting oneself. What is the distinction you’re making?
I think unwitting accomplices are always welcome.
Motivation aside, you'd have to be an absolute MORON not to be able to capitalize on the presidency.
So y’all believe the 10 billion hype? You think the Trumps are worth more than the Bush’s?
80, the problem is, this guy is billed as the ultimate outsider. You’ve just argued (quite effectively), that he’s just like the rest of them.
Well, go ahead.
Yep. Power and "winning" is what matters. Trump is really a perfect fit for our current realities. No ideology but power.
Ideological malleability is exactly what I am seeing.
Well, he IS the president. What Hillary would've done is immaterial. He will be the president for the next 6 years (IMO), so why wouldn't we call him out when he does something stupid.
Being...
And the fans see no wrong in anything he does, no matter how ridiculous or foolish.
That said, the Dems have offered NOTHING since Nov of 2016. I fully expect Trump to win reelection in 2020...
Manafort or Trump? There are quite a few advisors who parted ways with the campaign in their official capacity at peculiar times. Manafort's old buddy and former business partner Roger Stone for...
So you think he’s got some incriminating info on Trump then? I suppose we’ll find out. Russian Deep Staters caught in a trap can be unpredictable. Trump sure is distancing himself from Manafort.
Levin maybe, but Rush has been in the tank for a while now. I didn't listen during the Bush years, so I have no clue whether or not he's in the tank for all Rep Presidents, but he's super soft on...
You didn't answer my questions.
I'm sure I have. I just try to be honest about it. What you just described is text book confirmation bias. They're your words not mine. Then you rail about the media that exists for confirmation...
When you refuse to interact with facts because you’ve already decided what’s true and what’s not, you are consuming news in a biased and discriminatory way. That type of Media consumption (or refusal...
