    Yes, I agree. But I would argue that this certainly pales in comparison to the Jeff Gannon ordeal. Where was the outrage about that?


    Did you feel the same way when the whole Jeff Gannon story was made public? What about "planting" a reporter?
    Would that be considered "Kinda underhanded and dishonest and manipulative?"


    Did you feel the same way when the whole Jeff Gannon story was made public?

    Or is it only when a Democrat gets caught doing this that it's bad?

    I haven't said it was "bad" that it was done. Just "kinda underhanded and dishonest and manipulative".
    It's to be expected from campaigning politicians.

    But it's still a fact that Hillary lied about it and everyone knows it.

    Again. What else is new?:tonofbricks:

    You've been here long enough to know that Carpro and Timmy only care about making a democrat look bad, republicans are usually given an out or their deeds are ignored. Kind of like Fox news.

    Do you have proof of this?

    If you're talking about the thread from the Drudge Report, Blitzer has stated this:

    "Nobody has warned me from the Clinton campaign, or any campaign, about anything," says Blitzer, moderator of the 8-10pmET Las Vegas event. "Nobody has threatened me. Maybe it's somebody trying to be mischievous."


    So, do you have any other proof or are you just spreading rumors and lies?

    Of course he did.

    Blitzer is a Clinton sycophant from way back.

    You don't really think he wants anyone to know he was "reminded" who the players were, do you? :tonofbricks:

    Back on topic: Clinton got caught and lied. What else is new?

    If that's the best proof you can provide than maybe you shouldn't go around spreading rumors and lies. Since he has denied it, anything else would be a lie or rumor unless someone has proof.

    You know what lying and gossip will get you...

    Come on, Jamie, get with the program. Don't you have if a Republican says something then it should be accepted as truth? And if a Democrat says something then it should be disparaged as a lie?

    Clearly a case of he said/he said. Take your pick.

    Knowing the history of Blitzer and the Clintons, It's not only possible he was warned, but likely.

    I'll stick with the horse that brought me.

    Ah, smear someone and then abruptly change the subject.
    You didn't offer any proof for your claim about Wolf Blitzer and now you want to steer "back on topic."

    Interesting...... how convenient for you.

    As usual , you don't have one worth answering.

    Now, are you going to chase me for three days to get an answer to a question that is not germain to the topic?

    Let's see... Picking between a reporter with a Right slant and the person the article was about... I think I will pick the person the article was about since he would know who said what to him.

    Yeah, I have noticed that about you... when caught in an untruth, you don't tend to admit it, but instead, just keep on plowing through it hoping no one will care or know. If they do care or know the difference, then you will just pick that next standard tactic... usally in the form of belittling or harping on the poster and not the question or the thread topic.

    Admit you only stating your opinion and not fact about Clinton.

    No, I don't have to do that. You are showing who you are and where you stand.

    Nice job.

    Sorry, I missed this one. Technically, you are still a Virginian.
    I am, for now. I am being forced to leave my beloved Commonwealth. I will miss it terribly.

    I was watching Virginia Currents [http://www.ideastations.org/vacurrents/index.html] on PBS the other night, and almost had to fight back the tears. Okay, maybe I am laying it on a bit thick, but I will miss Virginia. Until you have lived here in Virginia, and have let her capture your heart, it is difficult to understand. I have fallen hopelessly in love with her.

    Strangely enough, I left my home state of Florida when I was relocated to Richmond, and I was not very happy about that at the time. I trusted in our Lord and Savior, and it really was a blessing. I am going to trust Him again with this next move as well.

    Sorry to veer off topic, but I had an absolutely dreadful day, and this made me laugh out loud. Thanks tinytim - I really needed that.

    Hope all is well with you and yours,
    BiR

    Ot is certainly not Hillary bashing to say everything she does has to be scripted, nor is it Hillary bashing to point out how disasterous it is for her when things aren't laid out well before hand.

    That and the fact that global warming is a scam, and thet's right up her alley. (OK, maybe that's bashing)

    Agreed, but it didn't seem to be a problem when it happened on the other side of the political aisle. I certainly didn't hear the outcry like we have heard with Rush and Sean.

    Sorry, I forgot that global warming is a myth.
