Good Lord.  Complete derangement; you can't make this up. 

 

What makes the conservative media different than the mainstream liberal media is that it is like a circle jerk wherein all the conservative outlets pounce on these weird stories of some obscure liberal hippie out there and they spread and go viral and it’s all part of an active battle to defeat “the left”.

The Liberal Media reports the news through a liberal slant/lens while Conservative Media provides propaganda for the broader conservative movement at large

here is the main reason why this witch hunt should be shut down.  Digging into the life of a person before they got into politics is BS

Do you think it would be relevant to compare the Clinton’s bank deposits prior to their political life or perhaps, the bank deposits prior to the Uranium One deal?

of course you do and you would use the exact opposite reasoning.

What is disgraceful about all of these things IMHO is that EVERYBODY KNEW ABOUT THESE THINGS BEFORE IT MADE NEWS! How can the party that sells things like the “War on Women” sit there and now act outraged? 

For dems these scandals are much worse for the same sort of reasons I think “deficit busting” policy is worse for the GOP - because it’s all they harp about. These people are completely full of shit.

Except this is yet ANOTHER dose of FAKE news; no subpoenas were issued, and none were received by the bank.

 

The lies from the left-wing media continue unabated.

Agreed. This might be the most normal not liberal comment I've seen you make. It is always the ones who act holier than thou that it comes back to bite the most. Clinton knew about Weinstein, everyone knew about a lot of those things, but no one said or did a damn thing. I also hate the "I believe women" until it's a guy you know as in the case of Conyers or the deplorable Lana Dunham.

And I won't pretend the right is any better. I am fine with Alabamans voting for Moore, but the RNC and Trump coming out for him is disgusting.

Yeah. I agree on this as well. The Pelosi defense on Meet the Press the other week was lame as shit. Also, the fact that none of the members of Congress that have been accused have not resigned, except Conyers, is pretty bad. That's why I kind of commented that this may be the thing that actually drains the swamp as it, for a lack of a better word, touches both parties. Ds and Rs have their creeps. 

I'll also admit that the liberals have to reckon with slick willy, Bill Clinton as well.

To add to the discussion above, I hope everyone on both sides who used tax payer money to settle a sexual complaint needs to be public knowledge/ paid back.

I don't know if you meant that to be funny or not, but I laughed. Well done!

“We have confirmed that the news reports that the special counsel had subpoenaed financial records relating to the president are false. No subpoena has been issued or received. We have confirmed this with the bank and other sources,” Jay Sekulow, a member of Trump’s legal team, told ABC News Tuesday afternoon."

Umm, well, Trump and his team are even less credible than the liberal media

This is how bad the disease of progressivism is getting to be. Where a mayor in Minnesota breaks down with cursing and tears because a council woman denies that she has white privilege. The mayor goes on to say that denying white privilege is racist.

LMFAO!!!  Pure gold.

What really puts it over the top are the 4 white males sitting there extremely uncomfortably clearly wanting no part of this conversation.   But no!  Then one guy sheepishly raises his hand and she screams at him "NOT NOW"

Now see, I would have broken the tension with a joke about "male privilege", and then all hell would have let loose.

So you prefer the anonymous, unamed source, again ?

I did't say that, just that the WH isn't any more credible than the media.  I only believe official statements from Mueller's team (which rarely happens, if at all) or in this case from the bank (which isn't happening).

The Trump team has made false or inaccurate statements numerous times on this, as well.  They have been no more reliable than the media.

So apparently Al Franken is supposed to step down today after getting hit with several accusations of sexual assault. Makes me wonder how many politicians will see their way out in this era of sexual misconduct.

Meanwhile, the Rs are bending over backwards to endorse an accused pedo, so they can maintain a majority in the Senate.

Read today that the one accuser has a stepson who says she is lying.  The other accuser has a brother who was sent to jail by Moore.  

 

Hard to know the truth.
