Thanks for those alternative facts.

 

 

Don't lie. Breitbart offers only flat facts, nothing more.

 

Besides, everyone knows aborted fetuses get cooked into vaccinations that contain mercury and cause autism. :w00t:

Uh, no it's not. There's a heavily edited video of a sting to send a fake pimp and prostitute in to score free abortions at an alleged (but unknown) clinic and a heavily edited video of a sting showing an alleged (but unknown) Planned Parenthood staff member advising abortion first, as well as an ambiguous and heavily edited video of a Planned Parenthood doctor naming figures and tissues. It's snippets of conversations that out of context could possibly, maybe, if you're being especially uncharitable on purpose, could maybe interpret as possibly being about those things, maybe. I ain't seein' no fetal bits caught on film.

 

The first two have full-length 30 minute versions that disprove the conclusions made by Live Action (for example, the staff advised about ten different things before advising abortion that were just edited out) available at *shiver* HuffPost (yeah I know, about as reliable as Breitbart is but they had the full footage and the footage is important, not the article):

 

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/01/live-action-planned-parenthood-videos_n_1563241.html

 

And as for the latter, there's a very detailed Snopes post for that footage that essentially comes to the conclusion of "Mixed on account of we don't even know what they're talking about because it's edited in ways that nearly every quote lacks context and it's not logically possible to determine what is being referred to".

 

http://www.snopes.com/pp-baby-parts-sale/

 

So as far as I can tell, hoaxes. This coupled with what I said about how they would somehow get away with all this and all staff at Planned Parenthood centers somehow being okay with it... this conspiracy sounds about as likely to me as faking the moonlanding. And let's not even get in to the fact that they make money of their monetized YouTube videos.

I don't see how your links contradict anything, more like some liberal organizations making excuses. And the reason PP gets away with all that is exactly because Democrats protect them. I guess to be really sure I'd have to watch the entire unedited video, but I'm just not that interested, sorry.

Who needs to check facts when you've got alternative facts?

am kinda conflicted 'bout the notion o' pryor being the most unlikely o' the seeming three finalists.  a fine judge who deserves consideration but getting the Presidential nomination woulda' resulted in a senate bloodbath.  would be unseemly to see a fine jurist such as pryor staked out like the goat in jurassic park. then again, would be fun to watch trump view the proceedings impotently, and possible self-destructive, predictable tweeting vitriolic at democrat and republican senators alike. 

 

as 'tween hardiman and gorsuch, gorsuch would be our choice as he is the kinda writer who is gonna make his fellow Justices better.  the thing is, while both potential nominees is textualists, neither has any kinda obvious question marks on their legal résumé.  is gonna be tough for democrats to reasonable oppose either, though after the unfortunate situation with judge garland, they may simple dig in and refuse 60 to any trump nominee.

 

HA! Good Fun!

 

ps one wonders how long before the fbi starts a stalker file for keyrock.  won't be surprised if he ends up on a no-fly list.

how on earth are you reading?  in both instances, Gromnir observes that individual Congressmen will act in their own best interest regardless o' some kinda perceived external notion from pundits regarding what is best for the party.  we noted that in 2016 numerous Congressmen did indeed distance themselves from trump as 'posed to aligning with party interests. so, how do you see hypocrisy?

Step 1: Make a provocative statement

Step 2: Cause a media uproar: "What can change the nature of a fact?"

Step 3: Accuse media of being unreasonable about the nature of facts, escalating the issue to an outrage

Step 4: Work on stuff that matters like TPP, Keystone, EPA and NAFTA in peace while enjoying the lime light on facts that don't matter

Step 5: The few reporters who report on facts that matter are drowned in the sea of those that don't

Step 6: Smile

in both cases Gromnir states it is foolish to claim what the Party must or will do as Congressmen act in their own self interest.

went right over your head.

No. In first case Gromnir states what congressmen must or will do.

In second case Gromnir states that stating what congressmen must or will do is asinine.

*zoom*

hypocrisy goes over Gromnir head.

 

HA! Good Fun!

 

incorrect.  in the first case Gromnir rejects the notion that Republicans, as a whole, must stand together with trump. more than a handful o' prominent republicans distanced themselves from trump during the 2016 election.  is nothing to prevent them from making a similar choice in 2017 and beyond.  

 

in the second instance, Gromnir again rejected the notion that the republican party, as a collective, had some kinda "party approved justice profile." trying to suggest a kinda borg collective mentality for the republican party is asinine. 

 

how on earth is you reading?

 

HA! Good Fun!

Sharp_one recognizes Gromnirs being hypocrite.

 

possible language barrier fail?  dunno. a personal fail o' Gromnir is dogged consistency. 

 

 

HA! Good Fun!

 

ps another example o' why it is foolish to see Republicans as some kinda hive mind

That was never going to happen since there's no such things. Academic sources on current news don't exist and trustworthy is very clearly subjective.

There some things you can do... for example:

 

Today, 8 richtest own as much as poorest 50%

 

What to do of this and how to regard is is indeed very subjective. The fact as such is however a fact.

 

I think we should agree that we all need to back our sources with another source, and that other source should be as independent from the first one as possible.

Of course the communist party supported racial equality. As a death cult, it makes sure that everyone is welcomed and where we will all be truly equal in the end.

Please just do. your research....

 

The communist party of the US supported racial equality. Period.

iirc they also supported the US internment of Japanese civilians.

 

Anyways how does this follow from anything that was being discussed?

It arose during a discussion few days ago wether "anything good ever came out of socialism".

Anyone notice how Trump makes a big deal out of signing those executive orders. He holds them up like he's showing something off at an auction describing them in detail while his underlings stand to attention behind him.

 

It's just so bizarre.

That's how populism works... you need a constant source of input to stir up the people. If that dies down, populism looses its support. Now, if the populist is the opposing party then it's easy: just constantly attack everyone in government and everything they do. That's how the election was won. If the populist is in power, that doesn't work. So they constantly need to show off their "great new archivements" to keep it going. If they can't portrait themselves as "te greatest ever!", they loose all attraction and thus power. Edited by Ben No.3
