Distaste for the U.S. Constitution (Page 3)

IamEggman: David,
You seem to have replaced Obama's name with Bush in your report of my comment.
I'll say it again, i dont blame any one party or individual for the language used. Both sides are equally responsible. Yet you seem to want to make this about right and left politics. All that does is make it look like you, as a conservative, are being defensive.
But since you mentioned Bush, his administration was one of the dirtiest. Karl Rove knew no limits in slandering anyone, even members of his own party.

David responds: Did you say during the Bush years, “I dont blame any one party or individual for the language used Both sides are equally responsible”? I do not think so.

Eggman said: Yet you seem to want to make this about right and left politics. All that does is make it look like you, as a conservative, are being defensive.

David responds: It makes you look like someone who will not discuss the atrocious comments made about conservatives but will throw up your arms waving and yelling when challenged and say, “I dont blame any one party or individual for the language used Both sides are equally responsible.”

Eggman said: But since you mentioned Bush, his administration was one of the dirtiest. Karl Rove knew no limits in slandering anyone, even members of his own party.

David responds: Yet you are ready to throw a conservative under the bus yet when Chicago politics hardball Rahm Emanuel, Obama's last Chief of Staff says and does things as outrageous or worse, you fall back on, “I dont blame any one party or individual for the language used Both sides are equally responsible.”

What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.


“When President Obama’s former Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel said, “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste, and what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things that you didn’t think you could do before,” he meant it. His partisans on the Democrat side of the aisle were listening and have taken Mr. Emanuel’s words to heart. It should be noted that by all accounts so far Loughner never directly threatened or been shown to be a Rush Limbaugh fanatic. He just reached a boiling point over a lengthy period. So Mr. Brady and Mr. Clyburn, much more than Ms. McCarthy, are using this tragic event to potentially to pass laws that would silence opposition to government. Rahm would be proud.

franklin1950: davidk .... perhaps you should watch more msnbc and get your head right [ left ] on the issues .

caution !! .... leaning too far forwarwd too quickly may cause dizzyness or uncontrolable flatulents .

IamEggman: David,
If you want to look back through forums, you will find that i have criticised both republican and democrat in the past. Just as i have criticised labour and conservatives politicians in my own country. The closest i have come to commenting on the language used by politicians and commentators is when i have been talking about the likes of Glen Beck. So please try and get it through your skull that i consider both sides responsible, because this is getting boring.
If i had known what Rahm Emanuel had said i would have been critical because when i listen to politicians i want to hear them discuss the issue and their ideas.
Would you be willing to criticise president Bush for the way he ran his political campaigns from the time he was governor of Texas?

franklin1950: if all news media were to use quotes in context and not isolate one word or sentence out of context to create the news to suit their own political viewswe would be a mpre informed public.

sometimes the news is manipulated the the purposefull omition [ the leaving out ] of facts or saments.

some have even been caught completely reporting a false news item '

or running with a completely unsubstanciated and false rumour.

Wampum6: Thanks to Eggman and Franklin, this thread is a shambles, and only held together with the comments of David. Were it not for the flagrant distortions and erroneous statements of those two, it might be an intelligent discussion. Just my opinion.

IamEggman: Nice bit of brown nosing.
Maybe you could point out where Franklin and myself have gone wrong.

Wampum6: No brown nosing necessary or desired on my part! Where have you gone wrong? Though your opinions, they are off-the-wall in mine, and not even logically sensible. They are just plain argumentative, and not the least bit arguable in many instances. I say no more.

IamEggman: Or to put it in other words, you cant point out where Franklin and myself have gone wrong.
Thanks.

Wampum6: Oh, but I can and did, and you have done even better!

IamEggman: If you can, then say what you mean.

Wampum6: You have said what you mean, and that is all that needs to be said.
