    Despite Trump "reversing" his previously held position of killing terrorists' families...
    https://www.nytimes.com/politics/first-draft/2016/03/04/donald-trump-reverses-position-on-torture-and-killing-terrorists-families/
    He is killing terrorists' families.


    Punishing the 8-year-old daughter for the crimes of her dead father...How thoughtful of you.

    Re your comment wm "Shouldn't she be like a role model for everybody?"

    From a female persceptive, personally, I can't think of any female that inspires me less than Conway.

    I'd rather hang out with a hyena than spend time in her company.

    I've always liked haynes. They are maligned, vilified, and even demonized animals. They need us to stand up for them :)

    You don’t have to be a fan of Kellyanne Conway to be angry at how the headlines treated her last week. All you have to be is a parent blessed with a large family.
    In the latest public skewering of an advisor to the president, Conway was roundly mocked for the reason she gave when she ducked out of the hot media glare for a few days. Here’s how this went down, in a sampling of headlines:

    The Daily Mail: “I wasn’t sidelined, I was looking after my kids!”
    Deadline: “Kellyanne Conway Returns to TV, Says She Has Been Busy Looking at Houses and Being Mom.”
    Washington Examiner: Kellyanne Conway: “Looking at schools and houses kept me off TV”

    In some publications, the eyebrow-raising language continued into the story that followed, as in Fortune’s opening paragraph, which said that “family matters” were “to blame” for Conway not being on TV for a couple of days.
    Oh, those damnable family matters, always interfering with the stuff that matters most, like helping out when a TV booker desperately needs a guest.
    Leaving aside the reason for the discussion—whether or not Conway was temporarily censored by her boss—the thigh-slapping ridicule that accompanied her explanation is permissible only in a culture in which large families are an oddity, and the work they involve is comprehended by a weary few. Let’s call them, oh, the 14%. [...]

    She manages, like all parents do, by making deliberate and rigid choices about priorities. “I see people on the weekend spending an awful lot of time on their golf games, and that’s their right, but the kids will be with me; we live in the same house, and they come first,” she has said. She dismisses the cult of superwoman, calling herself “an imperfect mom raising imperfect children,” and says she wants to be known for being “kind and generous and honest,” but mostly for her children’s accomplishments.

    “I want to be famous for my children,” she told The Washington Post. “I want one of them to cure cancer or win the Nobel Peace Prize or be the first woman president.”

    Most Americans would prefer not to wait that long for the first woman president— Conway’s oldest children are twelve—and many Americans intensely dislike Conway and the president she represents. But wherever you stand on President Trump, “Media Perplexed by Idea That Four Kids Are Work” is a headline that can unite even the most politically estranged of mothers. That’s not fake news. Maddeningly, it’s real.

    Sorry another off the wall opinion of yours that couldn't be more wrong.

    You suppose wrong. The problem is that way too often there is far too little logic. In your case most of your posts are characterized by it's complete absence.

    As far as politics goes it's not at all clear how much we need emotions. Certainly they are there and far too often they are bases for decision making rather than logic. Whether or not liberals love them is irrelevant. PLS note that appeal to emotion is hardly restricted to liberals, indeed Trump made extensive (one could argue exclusive) use of it.

    WTF are you talking about?
    How is your subjecting us to this off topic trash relevant to "years of reporting" biased or not?

    Even when I'm convinced a person is a troll I still tend to assume that there is some relevant point to what they are posting. I forget that a troll just tries to inspire outrage. So yes in that sense I guess you are winning. Your points are completely lacking in validity though.

    The fact that your opinions have been brought to serious question or completely refuted in almost every case is clear. That you keep posting such garbage and dragging in more and more off topic material to try and deflect attention away from your failures is both frustrating and irritating. IMO I've contributed far more on topic content to this discussion than you have. I'll grant you have contributed more garbage, smoke, mirrors, and obfuscation.


    As usual you suppose wrong and manage to contradict yourself in the process.

    Then why did you purposely redirect the conversation in that direction? Or is this just more smoke and mirrors?

    I have a friend who is a Haynes. He's not maligned, vilified, or even demonized by anyone I know. Indeed quite well thought of by most. One of his previous bosses was a bit intimidated by him though from what I recall. Most of us who know him are quite willing to stand up for him.

    So posting in a topic titled "Donald John Trump" with the intention to show that Trump and his team is doing quite well is trolling.
    But a prolonged discussion on totally unrelated subject (UKIP and Mr Farage) in the same topic titled "Donald John Trump" is quite desirable. OK.



    So why are you even bother If you don't know who that people behind that video are, why it was created, why they and the New York Times are enemies, and why it's relevant.


    Well, maybe an example of this refuting could be found? Preferable from pages earlier than 36...

    No that in and of itself wouldn't be trolling. But that's not really a very accurate description of what you've been doing is it? Indeed your initial post (at least from what I have been able to determine) is post 227 on this thread and contains only a plagiarized graphic of little real import to the discussion. Likewise your second (241) appears to also be a plagorized piece that doesn't even attempt to address that topic.

    It most certainly is not. Your posts in that regards though seem designed to not only continue but to broaden the nature of that discussion.


    Video's have a signal to noise ratio in general that's almost nonexistent (I'll grant there are a few exceptions). In this case from your lead in it appears to be irrelevant to the topic at hand, wastes bandwidth, contributes to the Off Topic trend in this thread as well as decreases the already minimal signal to noise ratio.

    I'll leave that as an exercise for you multiple posters have refuted so many of your positions on so many topics that you shouldn't have any trouble finding examples. Wait ... if you are saying that then you either don't understand what it means or can't recognize it or .... your a troll.

    Dumb blonde says-
    The louder the crying, the more winning going on...This will end as all hysterical crybabies do- in a deep slumber. Then wake up to a dry diaper and a sun shiny day. Provided by god emperor Trump. All hail.

    Ok to post here, where the mud slinging is.
    I don't know, but twitter does.
    Nancy Pelosi makes 193,000 at her job. ..Net worth 196 million ?...This is why the dems are freaking out. They are going to lose all the graft...clinton foundation- had huge donations (what happened to the cf)- while the witch was in office...Haiti was another crime...they'd used their office to gain personal wealth.
    And soon, the chickens will come home to roost.
    This terrifies lefty, and they will spend more money to riot and create division. (que paid left)

    Does this mean that Mrs. Conway will be reimagining "Triumph of the Will"?

    No offense Pops, but you are the one that asked for an All Hail...And I simply obliged you whim.

    Be careful what you ask for, because you might get it.

    People get upset. i got upset. Nobody is immune. Say your bit. Accept the consequences.

    Sometimes, i do go to bed worrying if i've offended anyone or made myself look worse than yesterday.

    The Alt-Right never thinks of themselves as Nazis...However, their actions speak louder than words.
