I'll wait for an example.

Go search. I have already pointed them out once.

Focusing on one quote without proper context is intellectually dishonest, Clyde. There is no need to pretend that it is not. Either Lipton or I could produce a long list of absolutely ridiculous Obama quotes, but I don't play that game. Candidates, especially during campaigns, become fatigued and often utter nonsense. Obama has a poor record over the past 4-1/2 years and it would be childish to criticize him for saying that there are 57 states or that we need more Arabic translators in the military to send to Afghanistan, when he has a real record to criticize. When people are tired, they sometimes utter nonsense and sometimes they are just not well informed on a specific subject.

 

Likewise, picking out a short quote with no context, as you did to base your claim that Ted Cruz is "whacky." when he has a long exemplary record of achievement is neither a fair nor an honest basis for debate. It is easy to grab a few lines off of a blog and run with them like they mean something, but it does not earn one much respect.

 

Ding Ding we have a winner .

I'm gonna turn on Ray Donovan as well. But I want to say Clyde really disappointed me in this thread tonight. He's to smart to take such trivial stance and intellectually weak one.

Before labeling someone a loon I would like to know things like legally why they think this is possible what research or knowledge they have on the subject that's for starters. I think of a whole host of other things as well I'd like to know before I called someone a loon. That's just me .

 

The funny thing is Clyde doesn't see the irony in this thread where he self proclaimed himself a moderate. ( I'm still chuckling ) That he proved my point that he does not give Republican politicians the same benefit of the doubt that he has given Obama and many democrats on this site . Like we don't have memories . But maybe I'm confused because its been over a decade since I took political science in college on what the definition of a moderate is.

 

So because Clyde doesn't start anti-Obama threads he's not a moderate?

But that's the thing. He said Cruz was whacky based on the one quote Cruz said about golf and paved roads and you two danced around that for two pages instead of addressing why he said Cruz was whacky.

Considering the source and the length of the quote, and the fact that the link that was provided purportedly to the full document was broken, there was nothing to comment on. But Clyde would not take that for an answer. I rephrased it several times for him, but he just never seemed to understand why a conservative such as myself would not eagerly agree with him that Cruz must be some kind of a whacko, based on the opinion and broken link provided by a liberal blogger. The reason that you see two pages of worthless posts is that is how long it took Clyde to find a second source to confirm the questionable one that he provided in the first place. If somebody declines to comment on a quote and explains the reason for declining, that should suffice.

So he's not allowed to call Cruz whacky based on what he saw Cruz say and what no one denied Cruz has said? He's not allowed to base his beliefs on what he believes he heard? It just seems like more of the same to me. Anti-Obama folks are allowed to believe whatever they want to believe but as soon as someone appears pro-Obama or moderate they need more than one quote to validate their opinion.

They weren't worthless posts. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I hate Ray Donovan came on.

Ha ha. Every once in a while you bring a smile to my face, Bash. Actually, I would never go to all that work explaining my vote history and where I stand on this or that. I just vote the way my union tells me to vote.

Clyde does not need any quotes to voice an opinion. But if he wants to insist that others respond to a quote, then that quote needs to be deemed worthy of comment by the people he expects to respond to it. Clyde is entitled to his opinion but he has no authority to compel anybody else to either agree or disagree with it. Being an Obama critic or supporter has nothing to do with this debate.

I'm old enough to remember Donovan (Hurdy Gurdy Man), Artie Donovan and Anne Donovan. I'm young enough to be familiar with Donovan McNabb and Landon Donovan.

 

Who is this Ray Donovan of whom you speak? What am I missing?

That's what I want to know. I think it comes on Showtime maybe. Not sure.

You are correct. I had never heard of him and had to look it up. It looks like it has a good cast, headed by Liev Schreiber, who is currently on my TV in one of the Wolverine movies.

That makes sense. Showtime isn't part of my DirecTV package.

He's good. One of those underrated actors that you forget how good they are until you see them in a new role.

Does it rhyme with "Kiev" or with "weave"?
