Yea, liberals are now worried about a lot of things that haven't concerned them at all for the last 8 years. One thing I've found laughable is the distraught over Steve Bannon being so close to the Oval Office, but they were fine with Valerie Jarrett. Talk about hypocrites.
Most people with strong political opinions are hypocritical, from the standpoint of condemning others while engaging in the same behavior.
This is the reason that I don't post on this political section much. I know a lot more than you think and am not pure liberal or conservative. I just post mostly liberal on here, because it is so one sided. The hypocrisy is overwhelming on here, though. If you truly knew me, you would see that I always see both sides of an issue. There is a lot of grey that people on here don't take into account. Most issues are not easy black and white answers. Those that are so sure of themselves are usually the ones that have a problem seeing the real truth. My one post on this thread was not a slam, but many of you went on attack instead of reading it.
Good Lord........

Way more than three "reputable" sources (CNN, NBC, CBS, etc.) reported on the "video caused the spontaneous uprising in Benghazi" story and ran interference for the administration they KNEW were lying through their teeth; Obama said it as well then denied he ever did. The "reputable" press edited the George Zimmerman 911 tape to try and show that he was only concerned with the race of the person he was following in the neighborhood (Zimmerman was an idiot, but not the racist they tried to show to fit Obama's narrative). The "reputable" media took a document that was obviously a forgery and tried to derail the candidacy of George W. Bush. Now the press is pushing the narrative that Trump is somehow attached to Putin, but they have absolutely no proof to back that up...knowing that pushing the accusation enough will cement it in the minds of the American people.
If you are looking for "reputable media" sources to be consistent of their criticism of Trump, you are going to have a lot of ammo. These are the same folks that would never fact check the previous occupant of the White House, though.
Not sending the military to rescue the Ambassador and other Americans in Benghazi, Libya is the worst thing that a president has done(or not done) in my life time. The fighting went on for 13 hours with no help on the way. They were finally rescued by Libyan people that Obama and Hillary had overthrown in favor of ISIS. The news media never investigated this story. They let Obama and Hillary off the hook even after they lied about it starting from a video. They even put the man in jail that made the video. There was no outrage from Obama and Hillary lying. The press just skipped over it. But, now the press is making up false stories about Trump and none of these stories are anywhere close to the Benghazi massacre. Everyone's freedom is in danger because of these false stories. My brother called me and told me he heard Trump was going to use 100,000 national guard troops to round up illegal aliens. I asked him if he knew that was a false story made up by the press. It was the headlines of the Arkansas Democrat Gazette when it came out. This kind of reporting is dangerous to our country. I hope Trump keeps fighting it like he is doing, because, that is the only thing that will stop it. They can not continue reporting lies.
Just saw a report stating there are up to 5,000 ISIS fighters still in Mosul. That's more than they started with. Maybe they have recruited from within the city. That's possible. Don't think it'll matter. Their ammo and supplies are about gone. If there's 5,000 they'll be fighting with sticks and stones.
I will try to make my point again that I think everyone could agree upon...... After we take out the 5000 (or however many are left), the social media recruitment of new is going to be key. Lone wolf attacks are our biggest threat from ISIS right now. That is a tough one, but so important. No matter if it is ISIS or ISIS inspired.
Granted. Terrorists have always operated as individuals and in small groups. That'll never change. They will continue to recruit and try to inspire others to commit murder. It's also exactly why we need a VERY tough policy governing who's allowed into this country. And, just as importantly (and maybe more so) why we need a tough, no nonsense law enforcement component to monitor/investigate domestically grown terrorists, and when appropriate, taking interventive action.
Of course, the George Soros-funded leftists will rail against any such policies, citing "racism" and any other -ism they can think of, and engage in violent "protests" all designed to thwart sensible policies.
