No.

Pointing out an obviously biased double-standard?

Yep.

Well, OWS, you got what you wanted. Goat is on a 3-week vacation.

Never mind the fact that certain lefties are bigger trolls - Snoofy, Angry Dad, Rein, Monson, just to name a few. But, Goat plays for the wrong team and a subset of the DR left are among the biggest snowflakes on the planet....so, here we are.

I can tell you are not a lawyer because of your unrelenting ignorance of law, evidence procedure.

See PA. Evidence Rule 702. Pay particular attention to section (c) and the second comment.

Then f**k off, troll.

"Carlos Danger" was better.

Cool, the POTUS dumps a 5 star Resort in favor of an out dated, run-down, ex-Hunting lodge, to host the G-7 in. Sweet, way to show off the US to the world, if the cameras can even get in.

Leftists hate their double standards being pointed out, because hypocrisy is a virtual lifestyle with them.

What's amazing is the double standard in this case doesn't even apply to the lefties on this site. It's solely directed at the MSM and that 1 and a half minute video linked in the "Free Beacon" piece is a perfect illustration.

It's why we are seeing all of these pedantic "a finger-wag (the reaction was, in both cases to a still photo of both women) isn't the exact same thing" comments when reality is there is no defense for the obvious MSM double-standard.

Everybody refuses to address the huge disparity at which the MSM covered these 2 instances.

I know why and it sure is fun watching everybody avoid the actual thread-topic.

Pointing is not "similar" to wagging.

First off, yes it is. Secondly, in both instances the talking heads were riffing on still photos which were very similar.

Ahhh the old double standard argument.

I have two theories.
One is he didn't get spanked enough as a child.
The other is, he got spanked too much as a child.
But perhaps his spankings were in the Goldilocks zone, and it's us who are wrong!

As usual, Goat will walk a mile rather than look truth in the eye.

Goat, why are you arduously avoiding going back and giving props to the actual author who did write it, unknown for certain, tho she may be? Your pretext of being too pure to accept a social media descriptive narrative without an exact proper accreditation is a ruse to allow you to attack the other posters, who choose to reflect upon the substance of the post.

This is why you lead the plonk parade, Goat. You come here simply to deflect from the paved road of substantive discussion, into a false procedural, grammatical, semantic, weeded path to mindless oblivon, rather than discuss the topic, when said topic throws shade on your ideology.

The subject of this thread concisely and eloquently expresses how many people see Trump.
Instead of countering the message with facts some will desperately deflect to attacking the source of the message or pathetic complaints about links.

That is what cultists do when faced with truth.

When Jane Fonda traveled internationally and criticized America over the Vietnam war she was called a traitor. Not because people felt like she didnt have the right to free speech but because she did it outside of the country.

Criticism of the actions of our government is still free speech and to say otherwise is unamerican. Even if we dont agree.

"Not if those workers are ok with their kids being put in cages. Themselves kept in Mexico. Not effort of asking for real refugess status accepted."

I don't think you can request asylum out of want for a better job, so that's not a legitimate argument. Aside from that, can you point to anyone who wanted to come to the US to work being put in a cage after following the requisite procedures for entering the US for that purpose. Can you?

Goatman can argue any of the points so he complains about plagiarism?..... anything to justify supporting such a useless sack
Can't say I'm surprised

I suspect that Mulvaney was expecting a bit more deference from Faux News, but he sure walked into it with Chris Wallace. First Mulvaney argued that what people heard on Thursday during that press briefing was not what he said, and that when we heard him say three, we were wrong because he had actually said two, despite what the videos might show. But he didn't help the president all that much when he admitted that Trump considers himself a hotelier FIRST, which by implication would seem to say that he thinks his day job is secondary. After all, he's making virtually nothing for the hours he spends in the Oval Office compared to what he brings in from his role as the owner of the Trump Organization, and if nothing else, looking at his past, we all know that for him, the money always came first.

Wow. Your such a fkkking narcissist.

Newsflash, Goat, no one on this site respects you. You're a fkkking troll.

He explained there was a mess up when he posted this thread and provided the rest of the article along with the source. (#7&8)

Now. Do shut up. Before you turn this thread completely about you.

The Dust Bowl says you are a DUMMKOPT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Many Nazis were intelligent. And educated.

Every time I hear the phrase "deep state" I wonder what this country would look like if it didn't have a couple of million permanent employees. These are, for the most part, civil service jobs, not political appointees. Can you imagine if we had to lay off/fire all of them every four years and hire all new employees? You couldn't even complete the hiring in four years, much less get anything else done.

Is the idea that we shouldn't have career employees and the institutional memory that goes with that? Funny that most conspiracy theories (especially the right-wing ones) fall apart the minute you apply any logical thought to them. Most of them require so many participants to be in on the deal that there's no way it could be kept secret for long.

Government, especially in a representative republic is a complicated thing. This is a nation spanning a continent with 330 million people. There is no "simple" way to govern that. Right wingers just don't want to be a "country". They want us to be 50 "sovereign" states, i.e., "countries". They want to go back before the Constitution (when America was Great).

Republicans' Wavering Support Stopped G7 at Trump Resort

Haha, that's right folks. Their unwavering support didn't stop at

-locking kids in cages
-grabbing women by their -------
-publicly siding with Putin over American intel agencies
-calling Nazis "very fine people"
-publicly asking foreign adversaries to commit crimes against Americans and gleefully accepting the fruits of those crimes
-siding with bone saw murderers; singing kim jong un's praises
-running a shadow foreign policy in Ukraine (and god knows where else) behind the backs of confirmed and career diplomatic officials
-giving his unqualified children top administration jobs
-nominating people who've never stepped up in court to lifetime judgeships
-being proudly and profoundly ignorant on virtually every subject affecting this country

No, the buck stops at "trying to host a gathering at his resort."

Well I would say one significant difference is Obama generally treated everyone with respect
Illegitimate president bucket of ----? Not so much
So one is far more deserving of respect
Just saying

"Of course it does.

#9 | POSTED BY CLOWNSHACK "

You underscore the OP's point by omitting a crucial line to his post so you wouldn't have to address it which was, " It's about how the MSM covered 2 very similar events involving 2 different presidents."

Care to comment on that? Obama allegedly living in Jeff's head has nothing to do with the story or his summary of it. It's not even a good strawman.

But your willful ignorance of Goatman's behavior is very on brand considering the deference you give our troll President.

Are you ignoring it when he does. Oblivious of what it is to take the first swing. Or ignorant of what you're talking about?

All rhetorical questions.

Goat is on your team, and your the biggest team player of them all.

Carry on defending the indefensible.

It only makes you look like more of a fool.

That he fights back in lieu of just taking lumps is why he pisses so many people off.

#90 | Posted by JeffJ

He doesn't "fight back". He derails thread after thread into debates about semantics and whining about people using unfair debate tactics that he himself uses. Take a look at what percentage of his comments on any thread are about the topic of the thread. It's in the single digits. People attack him because he makes this site more annoying for everyone. I get it though. When your party is indefensible and you like to argue, what else can you argue about other than petty minutiae?

Sticking up for him only makes you look worse.

What you're actually saying is that because someone isn't in agreement with our government, they should leave. Good luck with that mindset. Because these disagreements are basically what made America great. You can choose to live in an authoritarian world where no criticism is accepted if you like but I like the freedom to Express my thoughts.

This is not a defense for what has happened here but understand the life of a state court judge....

"The case study presented is indicative of larger loopholes in the immigration system, the AP contends. Because state governments tend to run child-welfare systems, inconsistencies between federal law and its application at the state level are frequent."
