not denying ignorance...it's ignoring evidence.


This has nothing to do with the veracity of your post...but I really like the turn of this phrase

I think I'm going to use it as a signature

"Denying ignorance and ignoring evidence, one post at a time"

Oh really now? Would you like to be thousands of miles from home in harm's way doing things that bring your moral fiber into question?


Like what? What are they doing that would make them fear for their souls? (bringing moral fiber into question)


I didn't say anything about them fearing for their souls. I simply said they've got to be questioning their morals. Killing people is not something that comes to or sits easy with most human beings. They have to deal with the personal turmoil caused by their actions...

I do not need to get my news from FOX to know that this statement, the one that he interrupted the majority of Americans with, was pure political propaganda. The fact that EVERY detail of it was controlled, manipulated and scripted just shows the character of our leader.

When he wants your undivided attention to listen to HIM, no one will get in the way including the troops. This was a CYA exercise for his political campaigns gaff commercial recently. Megalomaniac anyone? Just start listening to his words, who is he always talking about? I and Me.

Those calling out people in this thread as children, grow up.

I was unaware that we had to respect ANYONE who didn't deserve our respect.

Is it expected of a child to respect his abusive adulterating father?

Where I come from,
Respect is earned not given.
My respect isn't free, you have to work for it.
When he earns my respect I will surely give it to him.

Disarm the troops before they're allowed in the same room with him? Good call. I mean, they just had a nutjob walk off of the base and kill a bunch of women and children, correct? Some people witnesses claim more soldiers were involved. Maybe, maybe not.

Greenscreen? Really? At the end, I know I watched him walk away between the 2 vehicles. The lighting made it look 2 dimensional. Normally, the lighting in a room doesn't look that way, but when you light the background as well as the foreground, you lose depth in the camera. And yes, I have operated a TV camera, and I am familiar with stage lighting professionally.

Bush Sr. would go to Iraq wearing a military jacket and have photos taken. Dick Cheney, Rumsfeld..... Clinton, G.W. Bush.....hell, he flew in on a fighter jet wearing a pilot's uniform! They all do it, and they all do it for the same reason, so don't act like it's unheard of. It's part of what modern Presidents and other officials do.

I swear, the polarization really cracks me up sometimes. Any excuse to criticize or make a mountain out of a mole hill...and while the Left, the Right, and the the unfortunate Center scrambles for influence and control, the corporations get richer, they consolidate their power, and they take over our political system.
Why turn a critical eye to Big Oil when you can pick on the LGBT community for wanting equal Civil Rights ???
I mean Gays aren't getting abortions after all, so why sweat it?

That only holds water if you believe 100% that the speech was live.

There is something wrong with the video....period.
