NM11046 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) I thought you were being facetious-Im not clear on laws re:election party support in Britain, but because of the very one sided allegiance of the NRA its an easy way to funnel money directly to the folks you want in power. Id love to see how much they have donated in previous campaigns vs 2016. THAT would be interesting. Edited April 9, 2018 by NM11046 Link to comment

Please post direct quotes from him, not someone's opinion of what he's saying, please. He attacked Rubio, as noted here: https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/03/david-hogg-attacks-marco-rubio/ More quotes where he attacks right-wingers here: https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/03/david-hogg-profanity-laced-rant-targets-gun-rights-supporters/ There are plenty more examples available through a simple Google search. 1 Link to comment

"You can’t argue, as countless liberals have," No. This sentence has references to two separate parties, compared to each other. You were quoting me, and addressing me, and referenced me as 'you', and then compared that to a general supposed liberal hypocrisy. If you were addressing the liberal hypocrisy, then you wouldn't have compared the liberal hypocrisy to the liberal hypocrisy. So, once again, please point out where I've done that.

So it's unfair of him to talk about Rubio being bought by the NRA, that's what right wingers are complaining about? And what is the objection to the language he uses in the second link when right wingers didn't bat an eyelash at Trump talking about women with Billy Bush? The double standard here is hilarious. The kid can't say these things because they're bad! But it's totally cool to be in the bag for Trump when he talks this way. Next time you hear a liberal swear, just pretend they learned their potty mouth language from Trump. 3 Link to comment

Uh...”you” can mean either the person you’re speaking to or be posed as a hypothetical... So if we’re discussing a brutal axe murder and I say, “Wow, you can’t just kill someone with an axe,” I’m likely not accusing YOU of committing the murder in question. Link to comment

Landlord Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 “Why are we having all these people from s#!thole countries come here?” "How can a dummy dope like Harry Hurt, who wrote a failed book about me but doesn’t know me or anything about me, be on TV discussing Trump?" "For all of those who want to #MakeAmericaGreatAgain, boycott @Macys. They are weak on border security & stopping illegal immigration." "I hope the boycott of @Macys continues forever. So many people are cutting up their cards. Macy's stores suck and they are bad for U.S.A." ".@Macy’s is a big contributor to @PPFA . Anybody against Planned Parenthood should boycott racial profiling Macy’s." ".@BrentBozell, one of the National Review lightweights, came to my office begging for money like a dog. Why doesn't he say that?" "Wacko @glennbeck is a sad answer to the @SarahPalinUSA endorsement that Cruz so desperately wanted. Glenn is a failing, crying, lost soul!" "Really dumb @CheriJacobus. Begged my people for a job. Turned her down twice and she went hostile. Major loser, zero credibility!" "Mitt Romney, who was one of the dumbest and worst candidates in the history of Republican politics, is now pushing me on tax returns. Dope!" "I moved on her, and I failed. I'll admit it. ... —I moved on her like a bitch. But I couldn't get there. And she was married ... I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the pu&&y. You can do anything." 2 Link to comment

Trump is THE PRESIDENT. He should be held to a higher standard than a high schooler. And it isn't amusing - it's the obvious direction people are going to take when you constantly defend Trump.

By all means, take the stage and condemn Trump as heartily as you're condemning David Hogg. Or just admit being a hypocrite. Either way, you have no viable argument here. 7 Link to comment

Wait.....just mentioning a politician and their relationship with the NRA and how they vote based on their contributions......is "attacking" the politician???? Really?????? The Right is somehow now appalled because someone uses profanity???? Oh the hypocrisy. You're really reaching there. The Republicans have ZERO moral high ground on something like this.
