Damn, I sure didn't hear about this one on CNN, what blatant hypocrisy...
This has been an interesting experiment. Most media sources have said the same thing, Ford's testimony is flawed and thus is not 100% reliable, but that isn't sitting well with some of those on the political left. See, this is why Democrats lost the last time and not much has changed in their attitudes since then, if something doesn't fit their narrative they throw a fit. Only one individual offered civil commentary on this post, the rest predictably enough just spewed hatred, that right there tells you what the left has become...
"Ford's testimony is flawed and thus is not 100% reliable"
In what way? Be specific, because vague assertions never account for much.
And don't call the Democrats a leftist party. The only real leftists are Communists, socialists, Greens and a few other radicals. Democrats are middle of the road. Your calling them leftist tells me two things: You don't know much about real leftists and you are a right-wing extremist. Your claim that CNN has a left-wing bias is unfounded, because it, like most media outlets, are owned by corporations in this capitalist society. The left is tolerated by the mainstream media, not actively promoted.
@DaleHusband_HS What pray tell do you suppose the Democrats support, huh? I'll give you a clue, they support socialism, sounds leftist to me. Have you not been following the Ford/Kavanaugh case, you need me to explain it to you? Most mainstream media sources had covered this much, Ford's testimony had many holes in it because she was unable to recall specific details as to date/how she arrived at the party/who else was there just to name a few. I mean, did you even read the article I linked in this post, or are you merely reacting to my comments strictly on raw emotions? I suspect the latter of the two...
@DaleHusband_HS You couldn't be more wrong about CNN- [mediabiasfactcheck.com]
They clearly are biased in favor of the political left and don't always report all the facts. I don't give a damn about right or left, and calling me a right wing extremist shows what a prick you are when you lost an argument. I don't usually hurl insults, but you came onto my post and insulted me first, so what's fair is fair. I've seen and dealt with your kind before, as soon as something doesn't fit your world view narrative you cry foul and accuse the other side of lying, I've had enough of that bs. The truth hurts you people obviously.
"Damn, I sure didn't hear about this one on CNN" says guy who only "watch(es) CNN out of curiosity sometimes."
then un-ironically shares a link to American Lookout
You misinterpreted my use of the word sometimes. Probably should have used the words at times, and I watch CNN just about every day to keep up with what they say. CNN is biased, so if you're inclined to down American Lookout fair enough, but say the same of CNN as well. I get a kick out of you people who nitpick at every single word used...
IF there is enough evidence with people getting hurt then a criminal investigation should take place, This story was run by Rachel Maddow also. She covers all and does it very well. Brett baby is just a piece of shit that feels he has the right to be a justice. NOT SO . He is NOT under criminal investigation either, just a check up on his kegger of beer.
First, most republicans do not understand this, SCOTUS requires much more detailed scrutiny. And you will notice, not fake news but real, that this is NOT a criminal investigation into Brett. Merely an update regarding his possible appointment to the Supreme court.
Republicans seen to always get the facts wrong and then run with it. Remember the Ebola outbreak and republicans bought space suites , taped windows and cried while the scientist, liberals fixed the issue. Oh poor republicans, no education nor the desire to get one.
You assume I'm Republican...you're wrong, I'm not. Second, the Democrats distort facts just as sure as the other side does, the whole Russia hacking ordeal was made up by the looney left because if evidence truly existed of election meddling Trump would be removed from office by now. Last I heard the FBI is doing an investigation, you're wrong again, and I have a feeling said investigation is going to determine Ford's testimony is deeply flawed. Keep assuming things, you offered absolutely no constructive commentary whatsoever.
@SpikeTalon Having read your response, I stand by what I said. Call what you may, but the lack of truth cannot hide.
@EMC2 You're so correct about that... the lack of truth cannot hide, and there is a serious lack of truth in Ford's testimony which in the end will not be able to hide...
@SpikeTalon "You assume I'm Republican...you're wrong, I'm not."
Libertarian, perhaps?
@SpikeTalon
"if evidence truly existed of election meddling Trump would be removed from office by now."
Non-sequitur. Even the Watergate investigation took a long time to run its course and ended with the resignation of Nixon. It is clear you are not being honest.
@DaleHusband_HS According to Spike Talon, Hillary would have been in jail by now if they found evidence. What happened? The Russian probe has produceld volumes of evidence and will soon be released, IF Spike could explain the Trump Tower meeting then he would understand the truth
@DaleHusband_HS No I do not assume you are republican, The Real republicans do not care for Trump. ONLY the trumpet blowers think as you do.
@EMC2 The Russia business is not about me being dishonest, that is what has happened so far and I see no indication of that changing otherwise, so chalk that up to a personal opinion then. I'm willing to wait that out longer and see what becomes of it. I'm registered Independent, I don't give a damn about the two-party monopoly.
@EMC2 Until said "evidence" is released, I call bullshit on Russia and the Trump Tower business, I'm still waiting for that evidence... Who gives a damn about Hillary? Can you stay focused on the topic here or not? I'm not a fan of Trump, I brought the topic up because the liberal left is lying through their teeth on the Kavanaugh business and exploiting the unsuspecting, so once again you're just talking out of your ass if you thought I like Trump. That's fine though, I'm sitting here getting laughs off of all the jackasses who had left idiotic comments on this post, it's been an interesting experiment...
@SpikeTalon Just watch the news and you will easily see the evidence.. Rachel Maddow is perhpas the very best. The evidence is coming forth and YES it is solid. But there are many who do not watch or listen to real news, they rely on Fox sound bites and then run with it.
Erm... The main double standard I see is that the Democrats sent all their information on to the local police for investigation, whereas the Republicans are fighting tooth and nail to keep the FBI away from their boy...
Ford's testimony has been rather incoherent, what would you expect?
I meant on television. I watch CNN out of curiosity sometimes, not because I take them seriously though. I'm sure topics are mentioned online, and I don't recall NBC talking about that story either...
Hhmm...we'll see if that story gets kept in the news, should be interesting...
@SpikeTalon Oh. Even so, there's a big difference between a state AG race and a SCOTUS nominee in regards to coverage priority. I don't have cable and haven't seen CNN in a long time, but I doubt MN state politics gets on CNN tv very often anyway.
@bingst You're honestly not missing much, cable tv is lousy, thinking about cutting the cord on my cable. The basic tier that is, have no idea how interesting the upper tier is, and PBS is about the only channel I get that shows documentaries.
"As the saying goes, if it weren’t for double standards, Liberals wouldn’t have any."
Liberals have been saying similar things about Conservatives for many years. The question is, why do you think a "news" site that clearly has a partisan agenda is credible? Could this really be desperate damage control to keep Brett Kavanaugh credible a little longer?
CNN and the other mainstream media sources are no more credible, so the question is why believe what any of them say? The only ones who might need damage control are the Democrats when they realize Ford's testimony is not accurate as they would like to believe. If you don't want to pay any regards to sources such as American Lookout, I can respect that much, I just have a problem with anyone who takes CNN's (and other left wing sources) word for it without questioning things a little more.
You don't seem to understand. Never before has any SCOTUS nominee been pushed by the GOP so much. Why? Hiding 90% of his papers, ignoring his rant and lies about "the devil's triangle, etc., and diminishing his sexual abuses. Oh yeah, it's just women out to get him. Liberal snowflakes. Non of them are ruining or risking their careers and FEDERAL SECURITY clearances, and taking death threats. Why? Because of a fascist and misogynist anti-abortion agenda, maybe?
@Lop-Eared-Mule Just about every point you mentioned are baseless accusations. I don't care what you choose to believe, keep listening to CNN, they care about you so much...
