njbuff Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Obstructionist hacks? Have you bothered to follow politics at all before Trump became president? Both sides imo are deeply corrupt, completely owned, and hypocrites. Why do you think Bernie Sanders and Trump were drawing 20,000 plus crowds during the primaries? Where do you think drain the swamp comes from? You criticize McCain, but he's the only one who was consistent when it came to healthcare. He criticized the purely partisan and rushed healthcare bill that was the ACA and refused to do the same when his party was in power with the numerous purely partisan rushed GOP healthcare proposals. He votes down the party line on almost everything else despite his "maverick" reputation. That's why I said the Republicans are no angels. Look at all the bad stuff that is happening NOW though. It is all being perpetrated by the left. And what CNN and MSNBC continue to do? Need I say more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNN and MSNBC have been neoliberal propagandist machines for some time now. Fox News has always been a neoconservative propagandist machine. Washington DC is broken as both sides are moving further to the extreme sides of the party and a new "center" party may have to be created. Here's a decent article explaining such a proposal. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2017/10/03/the_duopoly_is_broken_--_why_not_create_a_new_center__135157.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Not sure this is really the right place for this but I didn't know where else to put it. I tried to pick an article that wasnt just one sided (in either direction). http://www.snopes.com/2017/10/03/united-nations-ban-death-penalty/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social 'U.S. Votes Against United Nations Ban on Death Penalty for Same-Sex Relations The United States joined 12 other countries, including Saudi Arabia and China, in voting against a United Nations resolution condemning the use of the death penalty to punish blasphemy, adultery, and same-sex relations. “The Question of the Death Penalty” passed by a healthy margin anyway, with 27 nations voting in favor and seven abstaining. The members voting against were Botswana, Burundi, Egypt, Ethiopia, Bangladesh, China, India, Iraq, Japan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and the United States.

B-Man Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Byron York: In Trump media coverage, audiences left and right get what they want “Fox, IJR, Hannity radio, and Breitbart were more likely to publish a negative story about Trump than the New York Times, Vox, Politico, Washington Post, et al, were to publish a positive one.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 And when they find it it's not fake news? Trump wants to control elections, now the media. President Donald Trump urged Congress Thursday morning to launch an investigation of the news media, wondering online “why so much of our news is just made up.” “Why Isn't the Senate Intel Committee looking into the Fake News Networks in OUR country to see why so much of our news is just made up-FAKE!” the president wrote on Twitter Thursday morning. He did not single out a specific story or media outlet that he believed to be guilty of inaccurate reporting. http://www.politico.com/story/2017/10/05/trump-fake-news-networks-senate-intelligence-committee-243480 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 (edited) Holy crap, you guys! Can you believe what Paul Ryan said today about Puerto Rico? The Hill ✔@thehill Ryan: Puerto Rico needs to "get back on its own two feet" http://hill.cm/eWFjym6 2:07 PM - Oct 12, 2017 He’s a real coldhearted bastard, isn’t he? Typical Republican monster, right? read actual story - exactly why nobody trusts the media “Yes, we need to make sure that Puerto Rico can begin to stand on its own two feet,They’ve already had tough fiscal problems to begin with. … We’ve got to do more to help Puerto Rico rebuild its own economy so that it can be self-sufficient.” But The Hill couldn’t’ve given Ryan some context in their tweet or anything like that. No, that would’ve been too honest. What a pathetic excuse for journalism. https://twitchy.com/sd-3133/2017/10/12/bias-what-bias-the-hill-totally-twists-paul-ryans-words-on-puerto-rico/ Edited October 13, 2017 by B-Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 THEIR TEARS ARE LIKE FINE WINE: ‘New York Times’ Despairs of Iowa’s Turn to the Right. “The explanation, according to the Times, is that Iowa simply isn’t retaining enough of its college graduates. The state’s industrial base has cratered, forcing the smart kids to seek their fortunes elsewhere, and leaving the dumb ones without degrees at home to vote Republican. No — seriously.” Their egos are too fragile to withstand the self-examination necessary to arrive at the correct answer. https://pjmedia.com/instapundit/278339/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
