  • not after I saw the price. I'd love to see it, but for $80US with exchange and shipping.....why?
    I'm thinking of doing it. Needed a nudge- someone to tell me, "Duh. Of course I'm getting it!"

    Yeah, I figure if you're really on the fence, it's best to fall on the side of buying (I'm personally not even tempted because of the price. I will never regret not buying it because it just isn't worth the $150+ CAD or whatever it works out to, IMO)

    Six paragraphs in. Holy shit. Unprecedented. Worst president ever.

    http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/09/opinions/working-for-trump-reputation-risk-dantonio/index.html

    Seriously, BS? GF? Unsung? PJF? How do you guys/gals defend this? How do you let it pass? Fake news? Partisan sniping? Just give him a chance? Trump is becoming untenable. He's not long for the office. Slow, slow burn then BOOM!

    I choose Partisan sniping. The article stated valid opinions however not one of them affects you or I directly at all on any given day.
    To coax a reader into a lull while reading this article thinking that is a balanced opinion piece then it ends with this shit insult to President Trump
    And in chimpanzee colonies, which McAdams notes "do not have democratic institutions," the dominance mode comes with guaranteed chaos. "Things always end badly for the alpha chimp," he said, who torments his underlings until the moment he is overthrown

    Actually the TASS article links to the Daily Caller which confirms it's reporting on Podesta.

    This is the same Daily Caller that is linked to in your Vox article on Flynn.

    Looks like you have a hard time deciding when the Daily Caller is or is not an acceptable source.

    It looks quite possible however that this might be the real reason why Flynn was dumped. If he concealed this then it is a massive no no.
    You're jumping to conclusions. I never opined on the Flynn article or the Daily CAller. If I'm not mistaken, isn't that Tucker Carlson's rag? If so... then no thanks.

    But.. your attempt to put Halifax or whomever in a box is a little weak. I don't think there's a dispute that either the Hill opinion piece existed or that Flynn filed with State or whichever agency as a foreign agent. Believing or disbelieving this Vox article is not dependent on an opinion of the Daily Caller.

  • The weekly address to the Americans seemed allright. 15 sec delay before it starts. Thoughts H2M?

  • From this article http://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/world/jobs-report-no-longer-phoney-trump-says-now-that-its-his/ar-AAo7jHR?ocid=spartanntp
    What a difference from last year's presidential campaign, when Trump repeatedly assailed the report's legitimacy.
    Back then, candidate Trump denounced "phoney unemployment numbers" he claimed had been invented to make the Democrats look good.
    "Don't believe those phoney numbers when you hear 4.9 and 5 per cent unemployment. The number's probably 28, 29, as high as 35," he said last February, on the day of the New Hampshire presidential primary.
    "The 5 per cent figure is one of the biggest hoaxes in modern politics," he said.
    That's last year's 5 per cent, not the new numbers reported on his watch.
    Asked about the apparent disconnect, Spicer offered a smile and a quip: "I talked to the president prior to this, and he said to quote him very clearly: 'They may have been phoney in the past, but it's very real now.'"


    Who is right about this President Trump or the press?

    What? Obviously it's not the guy saying the nimvers are"phony" when he's running for office and now says that the numbers are fine once he's in office and they come out on his watch. How do you defend that?

    Bill Clinton did it.
  • ledveddermanledvedderman Posts: 7,762
    That's a stupid argument. If Clinton did it, it's just as moronic as Trump doing it now.
    It's okay to say that your side is being moronic. It doesn't make you a bad person, you know?

    I'm done doing the research and posting the source again that Bill Clinton publicly said just use math and numbers when speaking to the public.
    Are the numbers wrong that both President Trump and the press are stating right now?

    No. The numbers aren't wrong. Anyone who believes the numbers are actually 20-35% is a fucking moron.

    You state, and I quote "fucking moron" to describe people that believe the numbers that President Trump put out.
    What is the true number you want people to know then and why?
  • ledveddermanledvedderman Posts: 7,762
    The numbers put out by the Department of Labor are accurate. They were accurate under every previous president and they're accurate now with Trump.
  • BS44325BS44325 Posts: 6,124

    no. birthers are not the same as tax returners. trump made up lies out of nothing, you know, his unnamed sources he now says should be forced to name themselves? every president has released his tax returns. he said he would if he won. now he says he won't. why is that? why not release them if there's nothing to hide? because it would most likely lead to, at best, collosal embarassment (not as rich as he claims), or at worst, impeachment and possibly jail.
    The reason not to release them is that he already won without releasing them. I have zero idea what is in them but the fact he hasn't released them drives his opposition insane. It distracts them and keeps them foaming at the mouth. The next election will not hinge on his tax returns but it will prevent the democrats from unifying on a platform. You are right that the returns are not the same as the birth certificate but the left will chase them all the same and it is the chase that will cause lead to self destruction.

    if the numbers were as inflated as he claimed, the country would be fucked.

    I'm getting the deluxe version for sure. Here's why... was strolling through Oslo with my buddy the day after the 2014 PJ show. We were just wandering kind of lost and were talking reminiscing over Mike smashing one of the swinging globes with his guitar during Porch. Just as we were talking about it we turned a corner and there was Mike alone taking pictures of random shit with his polaroid. We stopped to talked to him and he was the nicest guy of course. Had a handful of polaroids and you could tell he just really enjoyed the hobby and art of these photographs. My buddy and I walked away saying "great guy and man would we like to look through his pictures".

    I am not denying the Flynn/Turkey story at all and you won't catch me defending it. It's very problematic in my eyes. My point in the above comment is that the Podesta story is real as well. I don't think anybody is denying it and the only reason it is not a bigger deal is that Hillary lost so Podesta's lobbying has for the most part become irrelevant. I don't fully understand the law on when someone is supposed to register but I would bet Flynn didn't because like everybody else nobody thought Trump would actually win.
