April 13, 201214 yr Sorry, but that sounds like an excuse for Obama's poor choice of words. One I'm not buying. In reality, it doesn't matter to you what he meant. You will believe only the worst because it fits your agenda.
April 13, 201214 yr Sorry, but that sounds like an excuse for Obama's poor choice of words. One I'm not buying. RTS--I'm on the same page as you. Based on the information in your post, "luxury" is a poor choice of words. I was just expanding on it.
April 13, 201214 yr In reality, it doesn't matter to you what he meant. You will believe only the worst because it fits your agenda.And my "agenda" is?

April 13, 201214 yr RM, does it matter what anyone says in disagreement with Obama since perhaps it doesn't fit your agenda? See how that can cut both ways?
April 13, 201214 yr To think and speak only the worst about President Obama.Oh, I see. So when I've agreed with Obama, which I have, I'm speaking and thinking badly about him....
April 13, 201214 yr In reality, it doesn't matter to you what he meant. You will believe only the worst because it fits your agenda. Same can be said from the other side of the spectrum as well. Let's not single RTS out when everyone does it.
April 13, 201214 yr Same can be said from the other side of the spectrum as well. Let's not single RTS out when everyone does it.That wouldn't fit her agenda. :lol:
April 13, 201214 yr Same can be said from the other side of the spectrum as well. Let's not single RTS out when everyone does it. I agree. In this case though, I was in conversation with him about something he said. It certainly isn't off the mark or exaggerated to include any others of any group though. And I despise the "They do it too" defense. We are never going to move forward in this country that way. Have an argument to add to the debate? Make it. (Not you personally, you collectively.) Our representation does it and we do it. But it offers no chance at solving anything. It serves only to make the conversation about issues go round and round like a hamster in a wheel.

So, you don't think hypocrisy from our leaders should be pointed out?
April 13, 201214 yr That wouldn't fit her agenda. :lol: I do have an agenda. My agenda is to wade through the muck and mire to find something of substance to consider and/or someone worth debating positions with and learning from.
April 13, 201214 yr So, you don't think hypocrisy from our leaders should be pointed out? I think you are stretching in this case to find hypocrisy. The statement you've hinged your argument on isn't as clearly hypocritical as you think.
April 13, 201214 yr Same can be said from the other side of the spectrum as well. Let's not single RTS out when everyone does it. Just to be clear...by "liking" this post, RTS, are you agreeing that you do what RM is accusing you of? :sssh:
April 13, 201214 yr I do have an agenda. My agenda is to wade through the muck and mire to find something of substance to consider and/or someone worth debating positions with and learning from.Exactly what we do with Obama.
