FEDIT POLITICS Thread

Keep your focus lad

Cuba is/was a country overtly hostile to the USA for decades
North Korea is/was a country overtly hostile to the USA for decades

Both nations have been extremely sanctioned .. for decades
Neither nation cared so much to stop it's anti-USA stance.. for decades

Both right wing and left wing have for decades claimed ignoring Cuba was our only choice (to teach them a lesson)
Both right wing and left wing have for decades claimed ignoring North Korea was our only choice (to teach them a lesson)

How many lessons were learned? (none)
If you can't read the truth above feel free to light up something strong and try again

Or go back to demanding praise for Trump while castigating Obama for their similar actions.
Pot meet kettle...

 

Ignoring, sanctioning & penalizing a country for decades resulted in what?

In Cuba Kennedy's outrage got Soviet sub nukes removed
In North Korea Trump's outrage got Kim to slow or ease his nuke program

So different ehh? Except in NK Trump didn't actually get Kim to agree to ANYTHING except PR splashes. Per all credible media covering the event, NK agreed to nothing, except to pursue a peaceful future.. with nukes if they choose.

So let's listen to the blowhard habitual liar just blast all media as fake news. Again. "The Art of the Deal" my ass, This clown has a pitifully small grasp on the effects of his playing international bully every week.

Praise that... fool

 

Not quite the same at all.. but people know that invoking Hitler's name is scary to most humans sooooo invoke it whenever you're trying to scare people.

BTW Trump shares one key thing with Hitler.. both attempt to invalidate news media to control their viewpoints. How about THAT parallel?

EVERY time Trump claims 'any' news media is fake he is walking EXACTLY in Hitler's shoes. Now where is Fox news in reporting THAT??

 

Rubester, Spread your knowledge of Hitler discrediting all German media during the late 1930's and early 1940's.

Being a history buff I expect you'll have a grand time on this one.

 

Fox News in prime time is always biased of course because it's not news...it's political commentary. Same with CNN. But I actually think Fox is more credible during the non-prime time programming than their competitors. Jmo. Celebs and lefties in general talk about Fox News like the other outlets are somehow objective.

 

Do THIS all day long:

Acknowledge that one of the strongest weapons to defeat democracy IS... discrediting media

Acknowledge that Trump does this routinely.. or don't

 

Man do I agree.. EVERY media outlet has a spin. Every one. I even loosely agree that 'sometimes' Fox is a breath of fresh air considering the absolute lockstep in which ABC/CBS/NBC (old white Jewish media) all report. The world is better for having 'some' counter to their old white Jewish spin. And while I watch a lot of BBC they are not enough to counter the lefty ABC/CBS/NBC cabal.

Sure all the Hollyweird types cling to the ultra lefty Huff Post entirely clueless that they are soooooo far left that, while portions of Arriana's heart is in the right left place, the overwhelming "group think" of perpetually toeing the proverbial 'politically correct' line demands cranial rot that I shall not provide.

My point pissing off everyone on both sides is... BOTH sides are virtual mirrors of each other and BOTH are fully complicit in ruining the collective health of America and Americans. (I thought that Rube saw that awhile ago too)

My lefty friends such as Diablo's kin all know clearly that Trump is killing the country with revengeful racist idiots like Pruitt and Sessions. They are correct. Meanwhile my business owner righty friends, cue Diablo or Darth, all saw Obama as a weakling bowing too low to classless wannabe's and not acting as imperial as he 'should' as the POTUS.

Both are right.

Shit is way fucked up everywhere you turn

 

Good morning rant there Rube.. except for that last line

We ALL know that religion is the opiate of the masses

perhaps because it offers a feeling of security in an entirely insecure world??

 

a fool lets his hatred blind him
were nukes involved in cuba?
partisan hack disguised as impartial
its a start and yes his bluster is unnecessary
but if you don't see any difference...tilt another one

 

Of course nukes were involved in Cuba. Decades ago.
Not sure what your issue is though.. I thought that I agreed it was better to engage both outcast countries rather than ignore them for decades and keep lobbing cheap shots through intermediaries. Addressing the issue is better than letting it fester forever. This was Trump's strength.

So Trump engaging with fellow megalomaniac Kim was actually a good thing despite what little progress can be measured. I care not what the howling scribes on the left say.

You assert that Obama finally recognizing Cuba at Fidel's death is so bad? Really? I see otherwise.

 

Duuuuuuuuuuuuude...

You are NOT expecting me to defend ANYTHING coming from Rachael Maddow now are you??

You do not have enough liquor to back that sentence up. BevMo doesn't have enough liquor to back that wench up.

 

i was so proud to see a sitting president get his hug rebuked
great moment in our history

 

Must of missed that video clip

Is he still out there telling all the sports leagues to "F" off? Oh yeah he is isn't he?
I laughed when he told the Eagles to pound sand. and then he told BOTH the Warriors and Cav's to "F" off too.
I heard he was 'willing' to accept the Washington Capitals to the White House but now I'm not so certain

 

Soooo....the point is...Fox news sucks?
OK.

 

its hysterical
why does a president need to waste time on that shit anyway?
lets not forget the players started the nonsense w the threats and promises not to go
and in the case of the beagles they changed it all last second and were going to send like 4 people
and the video clip is here for you but i'm sure you probably view it as his hand being raised like a hero
