February 1, 201313 yr Hey! I thought my "Who cares? Hannity isn't a journalist" comment was pretty superior. No problems. He's not a journalist. Plus, you're not part of the low hurdle group.
February 1, 201313 yr Even if one side is wrong? Exactly....to your point...the only side we are getting is the wrong side. I agree with you completely!
February 1, 201313 yr What one has to admire about liberals is that they will back each other up regardless as to whether the situation merits the support or not. Their solidarity and ideology is more important than any fact, truth or logic that might get in the way.

February 1, 201313 yr You said everyone. Not me. Never made that claim. Keep up. And again Sheldon shows his true colors. If keeping up means emulating you I'll stay back if it's all the same.
February 1, 201313 yr Let's catch up here on the last few posts. Doomer says that only liberals back up their own due to ideology. McPapa says , essentially, that the Doomer post is missing the fact that a)it's a gross generalization and b)it's not limited to one party. All Tell then comes in with a shot saying that McPapa's seemingly logical post is also a "fall back position" ie they'll always say that when the other side points out the lunacy of Doomer's post. Have I summed it up pretty well?
February 1, 201313 yr And again Sheldon shows his true colors. If keeping up means emulating you I'll stay back if it's all the same. Enjoy the view.

That and they will also throw anyone who doesn't agree with them under the hurdle and claim intellectual superiority. You watch, here in just a second Professor Kingsfield will be along to chide me for something in this post and point out how much smarter he is then me.

You watch, here in just a second Professor Kingsfield will be along to chide me for something in this post and point out how much smarter he is then me. Professor Kingsfield here. You, too, fall under the gross generalization category. I often disagree with RTS, often with LN, often with BGC. Could name a few more. The difference between them and those in the "low hurdle" group is that they bring intelligence to the discussion. They make you actually consider what they're saying because they do not fall into the trap you do which is to generalize and use pejoratives.
February 1, 201313 yr And the tone of arrogance and condescension that your posts tend to have immediately make me recoil and not want to consider what you have to say.
February 1, 201313 yr And the tone of arrogance and condescension that your posts tend to have immediately make me recoil and not want to consider what you have to say. Two choices, holmes. Read them and not respond or utilize the block feature. I won't apologize for not suffering fools well.
February 1, 201313 yr And I won't apologize for pointing out arrogance and elitism. So you don't think you're smarter than some of the others in this thread?
February 1, 201313 yr Author Truth be told there are 5 liberal news station and 1 conservative station. It's easy for most American to be misinformed if they only have 1 station opposed to the others. Your older generations are going to watch CBS, ABC, NBC because they grew up with their parents or grandparents watching them. Some do try to act smarter, I think Obama is one of them.
