quade 4 #28 January 13, 2010 QuoteI agree, but there is also the partisan kneejerk reaction of getting all indignant about it. Unfortunately, it seems as if you can't even attempt to address the fallacies of the story and how it's been "reported" without some folks seeing you as being "partisan." It's almost as if people read these stories and automatically take them at face value without ever examining even the structure of how they're being written. When I see certain code words dropped into stories, it automatically sends up red flags that they aren't being written by actual reporters. When you see words like "zionist" used to describe anyone and quotes attributed to "Joe" you can be 100% certain the author wasn't vetted or edited by AP, UPI, Reuters or any other serious news organization . . . not even FoxNews would allow that in their actual news reportage.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, it seems as if you can't even attempt to address the fallacies of the story and how it's been "reported" without some folks seeing you as being "partisan." Good point - case in hand one poster in this thread spent his first 4 posts pissing on the OP for nits - without addressing the fallacies of the story at all in his 4th post and 5th post - he neglects to point out fallacies again and, in a typical partisan fashion, starts to lay out argument for why it would be OK for the senator to have this expense for 'security' reasons in his 6th post - he again pisses on the OP for his word usage and then implies extension of the perceive attitude to a whole raft of posters and others of 'questionable' political alliance - though briefly acknowledges another (more entertaining) posters attempts to address the original story's fallacies.... it's fascinating ...

CanuckInUSA 0 #38 January 13, 2010 Quote Quote in 1927 Charles Lindbergh was able to fly non-stop from New York to Paris in a small aircraft, He was also a nazi sympathizer. Why do you support Hitler? Good grief ... hmmm ... no I do not support Hitler, you see first off he is dead. It is kind of hard for me to support someone who is dead. Secondly I was not alive when Hitler brought terror into the world and if I was alive I would have been on the side that was fighting him. Was I guilty in this thread of NOT reading every supplied URL? Yes guilty as charged. So I will back off slamming Queen Pelosi for her desire to have her own personal 200 person jet. I was wrong to imply she needed this jet. There I said it. But you are dreaming if I won't take future pot shots at Pelosi because she is a certifiable nut case. But I will also go whenever I hear Sarah Palin talk that God chose her to be a VP candidate. Lately she too has been acting like a certifiable nut case. Finally, before any politically correct affirmative actioner tries to accuse me of being sexist since I am slamming both Pelosi and Palin, I am hoping that this woman becomes the next premiere of Alberta ... you know that some what important province in Canada that supplies the USA with more crude oil than Saudi Arabia does (but most people don't know this for whatever dumb reason). Of course Ms Smith has nothing to do with Queen Pelosi, that is unless Pelosi wants to bite the NAFTA hand that feeds the USA's energy dependency. In which case if Ms Smith ever does become premiere, she will be an important person to listen to. Ms Smith is in the early stages of her political career, so it remains to be seen how far she goes. But she is impressing a lot of people up here with her intelligence. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Open minded people should listen to what Ms Smith has to say before they go judging her based on her appearance.

headoverheels 334 #42 January 14, 2010 At this time this was news, I only heard about the need to fly non-stop, nothing else. However, I'm still pissed about this. She could make a fuel stop at some base partway across the U.S. and continue to use much cheaper aircraft. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
