Investigating candidates seeking public office is their job. You can't honestly say that CNN's first question to Clinton ("Will you say anything to get elected") wasn't worse than asking Rubio about his potentially unethical personal finances. If CNBC had asked Trump if he would say anything to get elected, you'd be howling in the streets. Quoteand yes, you are a lefty Why are you afraid of that? I'm not afraid of it. It simply isn't true.

DanG 1 #53 November 9, 2015 So, you really think "will you say anything to get elected," is a softball question? Really? And the quote, I believe, was asking Trump if he was running a comic book version of a campaign. I don't recall anything about a clown campaign, but I might be wrong. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have not heard anything about that question and who it was asked of and you are correct on the latter part As to the comic book question Do you think that was a legit question ? If so do you think it will ever be asked of a Dem candidate?"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

DanG 1 #55 November 9, 2015 QuoteI have not heard anything about that question and who it was asked of It was the first question asked in the Democratic debate by Anderson Cooper to Hillary Clinton. You haven't heard of it because it contradicts what your news sources are selling to you. CNN was just as tough on the Democratic candidates as CNBC was on the Republicans. QuoteAs to the comic book question Do you think that was a legit question ? If so do you think it will ever be asked of a Dem candidate? That exact question, probably not. But if you do a little research, you find that the questions asked of the Democrats have been just as aggressive. Lincoln Chaffe is out of the race because Cooper pressed him about a vote he made as a senator, and wouldn't let him sidestep it. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know As for a vote? I have absolutely NO problem with a question like that To anyone. It is part of who they are so I do not see that as an indication that the Dems were treaty the same as the Republicans and I have done the research CNN admitted they were trying to get the Republicans to bash each other. The second was worse than anything ever seen as of late You need to do the research and then believe it"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

DanG 1 #57 November 9, 2015 Quoteno, I had not heard of it because it must not have been deemed controversial No, I suspect your news sources wouldn't deem it controvertial. I also suspect your news sources are the only ones saying that the CNBC debate was highly controvertial. QuoteAs for a vote? I have absolutely NO problem with a question like that To anyone. It is part of who they are so I do not see that as an indication that the Dems were treaty the same as the Republicans So why was Marco Rubio's potential misuse of a GOP credit card for personal expenses an unfair question? Is that not part of who he is? Do you even know what questions were considered unfair? Frankly, it sounds like you are just parroting the party line. QuoteCNN admitted they were trying to get the Republicans to bash each other What Jake Tapper said was that he wanted to, "host a real encounter with the candidates." That statement has been spun into him wanting a fight. As far as I can tell, he never said anything of the sort. If you can show me otherwise, I'd be happy to be informed. Even Newsmax doesn't have anything beyond that quote to support the idea that CNN was trying to start a fight. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #58 November 9, 2015 kallend ***What's the assurtion (sic)? That the media is a giant left-wing SuperPAC? Absolutely I dispute that. It is ridiculous on its face. Obviously the media is a giant left wing super PAC. Look how many media outlets are owned by lefties like Rupert Murdoch, and compare with the number owned by capitalists. And now we can mourn National Geographic... the ridding of all those educated Lefties has already begun there after Rupert et al... bought them out... First people to go.. fact checkers. 1/10th of the staff are on their way out the door... I wonder how long they will wait to find "evidence" of that Ark that Noah had with the pens for the dinosaurs.

kallend 2,150 #61 November 10, 2015 brenthutchAntarctic ice growing, Greenland ice growing, Arctic ice back to "normal" QuoteArctic sea ice extent for October 2015 averaged 7.72 million square kilometers (2.98 million square miles), the sixth lowest October in the satellite record. This is 1.19 million square kilometers (460,000 square miles) below the 1981 to 2010 average extent, and 950,000 square kilometers (367,000 square miles) above the record low monthly average for October that occurred in 2007. http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/ Being above the record low does not mean "back to normal"....

Maybe it is there, but I don't see anything labelled as "normal," although the calculation of SD assumes a normal distribution (bell shaped curve). I see a gray area showing the extent of 2 SD's (a bit over 95% of the population). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
