The Bern Identity

nitro · Apr 28, 2016

It boggles the mind how these people have to be walked through simple details while holding their hands with simple logical arguments.

It would be great if I could write a program that would scan posts for illogical or spinning facts. Who has the time to set all these people straight on an anonymous website?

I don't support Bernie at all, but I'm confused by his strategy at Hillary. How come he does't shove all scandal allegations down her and the medias throat! Does he really want to win? Is this the "dignity" politicians are supposed to have that I keep hearing about from people? Dignity is helping him lose his ass!

He is walking a tight rope. He probably never thought he would get this far, and he doesn't want to screw it up with MSNBC and NYC book publishers by really going after Hillary. After all, he won't be allowed to win in any case and he knows it. So he has had a nice little run and really embellished his personal brand.

In other news, Trump has come up with moniker Crooked Hillary to describe his likely opponent. He will not be following the Sanders "play nice" strategy or the Romney "if you don't have something good to say , then don't say anything at all" approach.

You sound like an MSNBC host. It's called "satire."

The level of your intellectual dishonesty is reaching a fever pitch.

Reaching? So I haven't quite gotten to the level of your gun control absurdities yet?

Well I don't have as much time as you guys on your hands to mentally masturbate on ET. And, in case you didn't notice, the MSNBC or FOX or CNN hosts get paid to foam at the mouth all day long.

Maybe you guys get paid by Trump to sit here and misinform.

If it wasn't them it would be the leftwing media. The right just can't catch a break.

The DoJ and majority of the media are tough opponents to be against for sure.

There is nothing illogical about my gun control thread. It is an honest hope to open a dialogue on possible solutions to a very difficult problem.

There's plenty of stuff illogical and intellectually dishonest in the gun thread with you as the source. The problem is you are so clueless as to the subject matter that you can't see what is so blatantly obvious to those of us who know a lot more about it.

Those threads are pure pleasure for me. Hence the category of "Chit Chat". But that is too complicated for most people on ET to understand.

The difference is, I take no pleasure in obfuscating, so when I am in P&R, I mostly post facts or opinions that I feel reflect Current Events thinking.
