The Obama Definition of Civility Is Now Very Apparent

Recommended Posts

Regardless, I'm sure he'll get better treatment from the MSM than Palin's urging her readers to vote out Dems did.



Last I checked, Palin = Palin, but Obama /= Hoffa.

Why would you blame Obama for what Hoffa says? Is he also responsible for what Olbermann says? And Amazon?

Perhaps; but my point wasn't so much to indict Fox"News" as it was to debunk the ostensible premise of the OP.



I must have missed where the OP claimed it was a call to violence - is that what "civility" means now?



The weasel has landed.



Hope you had a good landing, then.



Wow, now he's back to the rubber/glue debating style.

So you start out with a childish pa, and then claim someone else is being childish???

Besides the irony meter melting, that is just plain funny:D

I'm speaking of treatment of Hoffa, not Obama. Sorry if there was confusion.

I'm sure the Dems think so - after all, they get to say anything they want with no consequences.



Is that what the Fox soundbite told you....guess that makes you fair and balanced too...



Is that what Moveon told you to say if someone talked about the double standard?

***Fox Doctors Hoffa Speech To Fabricate Call For Violence

Right-wing bloggers misled by dishonest Fox News video editing are attacking Teamsters President James Hoffa for supposedly urging violence against Tea Party activists during a Labor Day speech. Conservatives are also attacking President Obama, who appeared at the event, for "sanctioning violence against fellow Americans" by failing to denounce Hoffa. But fuller context included in other Fox segments makes clear that Hoffa wasn't calling for violence but was actually urging the crowd to vote out Republican members of Congress. ***



I don't think you can use "Media Matters" to debunk anything Fox news says. They are more partisan than anyone.

If you go to there home page they have a big "Drop Fox" banner going right across the front of it. They have tried to brand themselves as a media watch dog, but they are funded by george soros and have been caught in the occasional lie them selves pushing some of the occasional left wing crap worse than some of the bloggers out there.

Not to mention if memory serves, they just recently had their public funding pulled because of there agenda.

Just thought you should take a closer look at your "source"

I stated clearly in my Post #15: "..my point wasn't so much to indict Fox"News" as it was to debunk the ostensible premise of the OP. "

I wasn't challenging the messenger; I was challenging the message.
What you're doing is challenging the messenger. Rather, I'd suggest you address the substance of the piece I quoted; it's either correct or not, regardless of the conduit of information.

In doing this you took took the OP off to a different tangent

This is no different than when the Dems took after Palin

Both were stupid

So the point of the hypocitical double standard is right on the money

Yes it is, there is a hypocritical double standard in everything in life. I am sure you have a couple as well.

We know Fox has it. We know several Family Value Republicans have it. We know Democrats have it. Everybody has it.

In other earth shattering news, on a cloudless sunny day, the sky was observed to be blue.
