"Beardedbruce, your post at 16 May 13 - 01:27 PM is a personal attack on me, which demonstrates that you did not grasp what I said.

I said, in response to GfS's claim that The Politico is Liberal, that it is run by a man who was part of the Reagan administration and patently NOT Liberal. I said nothing about the CONTENT of the article because I hadn't had a chance to read it carefully yet.

By the way, I have heard that allegation against Obama before. I heard it on NPR. And they are waiting for more facts to come in before they comment. As any good news source should.

DO learn to read! (And yes, "DO learn to read" IS intended to be an insult!"
..................................

So this has been an ongoing tactic for some time...problem is, had Don and a few others on here BEEN READING, the already documented posts, perhaps some of the bickering would cease, and the things you have asked for, you would have already had the scoop on.I suggest that a lot of the die-hard, so-called liberals' should re-visit the "Popular Views: the Obama Administration" thread...where there is a PLETHORA of documented posts...which, BTW, in the time since they were posted, have proven to be true!!
But as Don posted above: "I said nothing about the CONTENT of the article because I hadn't had a chance to read it carefully yet."

So, I suggest that some of the 'so-called liberals' start actually READING the posts, and stop slamming the poster, and dismissing the posts, just because of your unlearned biases to that particular poster....Such as THIS:

"You were talking earlier about kind of dismissing the Benghazi issue as one that's just political and the president recently said it's a sideshow," said Woodward. "But if you read through all these e-mails, you see that everyone in the government is saying, 'Oh, let's not tell the public that terrorists were involved, people connected to al Qaeda. Let's not tell the public that there were warnings.' I hate to show, this is one of the documents with the editing that one of the people in the state department said, 'Oh, let's not let these things out.' And I have to go back 40 years to Watergate when Nixon put out his edited transcripts to the conversations, and he personally went through them and said, 'Oh, let's not tell this, let's not show this.' I would not dismiss Benghazi. It's a very serious issue. As people keep saying, four people were killed. You look at the hydraulic pressure that was in the system to not tell the truth, and, you know, we use this term and the government uses this term, talking points. Talking points, as we know, are like legal briefs. They're an argument on one side. What we need to get rid of talking point and they need to put out statements or papers that are truth documents. Okay, this is all we know."

....and yet if you look at the Benghazi thread, the same old cast of characters, are smearing anyone who was telling you the truth!

Another oddity is your inability to read facts, reason, or make a post without attacking those you disagree with.

Too bad you are unwilling to share any of "a variety of different viewpoints on the matters under discussion" with us, but I guess you are too busy insulting those that do not slavishly agree with whatever you state."

So, IF the ideologues would just read, follow the sources, perhaps you wouldn't come off as being so illiterate!!!!....and resent someone suggesting that you should do your own homework!!!!!!!!
