The Impeachment Trial of President Donald J. Trump
snafu replied to Nanker's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
They could have swapped out that language AND added "...and a fourth scholar thinks that based upon the evidence presented, there's no case for impeachment." But they didn't do that. by re-wording the three and deleting the one, that's not really an accurate edit. Edit: not only that, but if reporting really wanted to be unbiased (some have done this -- most haven't), they would make sure people know that Democrats chose the three professors, and republicans only got to select one to show up. Not reporting this leads to a false conclusion that 3 out of 4 law professors agree. That might not be true. -
The Impeachment Trial of President Donald J. Trump

Why did that article take out any reference to anyone who has an opposing opinion? Why did that article take out any nuance? This is what you're asking? -
I forgot about the “heart attack”! ? Bruce was a monster.

The Impeachment Trial of President Donald J. Trump

For some time now, the whole process needs to be played out. What I find interesting is whether the House will limit Articles to just what the hearings have been about (Ukraine). Pelosi started her announcement today by quoting the Declaration of Independence from a Tyrant/King/Despot. I find this comparison extremely hard to agree with. If you consider it, Trump didn't withhold funding. If you think about it, Ukraine didn't make its "public announcement". If you think about it, the Whistleblower's complaint accomplished its intended purpose -- to alert the government and the public about allegedly objectionable conduct by the President. How does any of that make Trump a despot who refuses to conform to laws? What Article of Impeachment can the House pass that doesn't sound like "we wish he acted like us"? And to answer your question -- I think those Professors are partisans. They came in with an agenda. Being politically motivated doesn't make one insane, just biased. -
I feel the same way. Just keeping my head down.

Actually, about 60% of men in the U.S. are fathers. Just about in line with your disingenuous poll and your B.S. reading of the results. You obviously don't care about the results or how the demographics of this Board relate to the general populace. https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/publications/2019/demo/P70-162.pdf You can say whatever you want while backpedaling, but I stand by my assertion that you're being perfidious. You're not my white whale. Don't flatter yourself into thinking you're important.

This is disingenuous B.S. See -- I'm right. This entire thread is just a vehicle for you to call people out based on your manufactured notions. Eff off.

So you weren't "just curious" if that affects anyone's vote. It is a loaded question for you to rag on people with no children? I never answered your "poll" because I figured it was B.S. and frankly none of your business. I was taught not to ask someone whether he or she is married or has kids or what they do for a living before I got to speak with and get to know them without my preconceived notions getting in the way. It was good advice given to me -- you should try to take it.

Gettin ahead of yourself a bit there. Lets beat Baltimore. I really don’t care much if the Bills are a 13-3 five seed or a 10-6 five seed as long as they’re playing good football when the playoffs start.

But Liz Warren IS doing it. I wouldn’t do it, but I think at a minimum it’s interesting that she’s doing it. I guess maybe she’s paying extra taxes and still donating to charitable causes? Or is the Massachusetts State Gov’t her charitable cause? That being said, she was a hypocrite and now she’s disingenuous? She can’t be actually walking the walk? Maybe if she doesn’t get the nomination or win the election and then she stops paying extra taxes she can be called out.
