If I could get a nickel for every time a leftist's argument against a story begins and ends with "kill the messenger." 

 

At least next time, bring a source with real credibility...like The Lincoln Project or Jennifer Rubin.

I mean, you cite disreputable sources and I don't know what you expect. It's like none of you ever paid attention in school when they made you cite your sources. You get your news from what amounts to conspiracy blogs and propaganda sites.

No seriously, you actually think Trump respects the men and women in uniform? 

 

Thats contridicted by every public utterances of the man.

Since your ability to think for yourself is jammed, let's try this: no one ever disputed the Trump military story because it came from The Atlantic. They disputed it because, unlike actual journalism which ALWAYS relies on identifiable sources, the Atlantic story had four anonymous sources ONLY.

 

If you took the time to read the Redstate article, you would find he lists ALL the NAMED sources who disputed the article while, simultaneously, reporting on how the architects ultimately started changing their story as facts from anonymous sources were all blown up by real people with real names and real dates.

 

Quote

While anonymous sourcing is indeed a key component in news gathering the problem that has mushroomed, especially over the past 4 years, is that the sources have become less the conduit to a report and now have become relied upon as the primary story. Case in point; the media insisted that Goldberg’s piece had become corroborated by James Laporta. Except his sources were also off the record. One is even described as a third hand witness — ‘’a senior U.S. Marine Corps officer who was told about Trump’s comments.’’ Also revealing, after saying that his sources confirmed The Atlantic article ”in its entirety’’, Laporta’s own article cites that they only ‘’confirmed some of the remarks.’’

 

The next thing you know, you hear talking heads explaining that it doesn't matter if it's proven that Trump said these things because some people can imagine that he actually would say these things, and that's close enough for most leftists like Kemp, etc.

 

Ultimately it becomes a battle of the Atlantic no longer trying to defend its own story but rather, predictably and embarrassingly, explaining that the people who were on the record as saying they were there and didn't hear Trump[ say those things aren't enough to suggest Trump didn't say it.

 

In other words, ignore those real people with real names...listen to these anonymous people who are too afraid to give their name. 

 

Quote

 

One final flailing effort can be seen in the Washington Post. This morning Aaron Blake was desperately performing CPR on the story. ”First, it’s worth noting that “I did not hear” is not the same as “it didn’t happen.” It’s admittedly difficult to offer a full denial unless you were with Trump the entire time, but many of the denials have been in this vein, which technically allows that the comments might have transpired while the deniers were out of earshot.’’

 

This is the level the press has resorted to on the matter. They no longer have facts and witness testimony to rely upon for a proven story, so the fallback is essentially saying, ”Well…none of this completely disproves it might have happened…’’ So we are now in the age of reporting on rumors, and it is up to others to disprove the negative, as reported in the mainstream press.

 

 

Next time, think first, read second, post third. You've been doing it backwards and it shows.

I think President Trump respects the men and women in uniform.  I think you’re lying when you say that “every public utterance made” by President Trump supports your contention that he does not respect men and women in uniform.

Do you not understand why people report things anonymously?

Maybe this will help you understand:

Do you know the Atlantic reason for reporting their story anonymously?

 

The sources didn't want people to be mean to them.

 

So, um, I'll see your Vindman and raise you a "boo-freaking-hoo."

And yet the sources were confirmed by Fox and CNN. Who else would have to confirm the information before you'd agree? Is Breitbart the bar, or would they just be a bunch of libtards then?

The editor in Chief of the Atlantic is putting his entire reputation on the line for a pretty small story. Does that mean nothing?

By your intentional absence of logic there’s no such thing as war profiteering then.  Just a made up term, right?  Lockheed Martin isn’t a 40+ Billion dollar supplier of all things war for America.  There’s no way they’d be incentivized to facilitate war mongering among politicians and high-ranking military officials who despite earning a streamlined salary, now represent the wealthiest and most powerful in America somehow.  

Let’s lob in a softball, shall we?  One that shows this isn’t a partisan issue but a bi-partisan act of corruption in the swamp...

 

 

Dick Cheney.  

Hmmm ... so,  who is it engaging in profiteering?  The generals or their civilian superiors?  You seem to think it’s the civilians, but the chef thinks it’s the generals. I think we need to pick one.  
 

(And I wouldn’t argue with characterizing the Halliburton VP as a profiteer, but that’s a different issue for a different day.)

If I wanted to copy a lib, I’d strap on my pink helmet, scream at the sky and accuse you of being a racist, you lyin dog-faced pony soldier.

And there are 4 sides of an aisle when you count the entry and exit..   you’d make a terrible Jedi.  Thank god for antifa’s low standards.

Is that when the President instructed his intel chiefs to dig up dirt on a Presidential candidate?  Or when that President winked away as his intel chiefs tried to frame the incoming administration?

 

I get my Presidential scandals confused all the time now.
