"I especially love the part where you claim to have voted for Clinton, despite the fact that you disliked him more than Bush pere, only because you thought it would be to your own personal and financial benefit."
That's not an accurate assessment. I did vote for Clinton's first term & didn't for his second term. Both times my job was at stake, but I voted for who I thought would best represent me regardless of my employment situation. The fact that I liked Clinton less in 1992, was more about the claims about his acts of infidelity. I decided to give him a pass & voted on what I perceived at the time was a better overall platform than Bush Sr offered. It turns out I was wrong thanks in part to the liberal media.
Those links I provided to you were links I was able to find in a reasonable amount of time. They weren't a complete list of my expressed views by any stretch. However, they established that there is now way I am a RWE as Lizzie falsely asserted. No RWE would ever consider voting for a Democrat under any circumstances. Over the years I have split my ticket consistently. Every time Ron Klink (D), was eligible to be my representative in Congress, I voted for him. I voted for Casey (D), over Scranton (R), for Governor in 1986 & again in 1990, over Hafer. There were other instances when I voted for a Democrat or an Independent as well.
I vote for the person who I feel will best represent me regardless of which party they are from. There have been times when I didn't vote for any candidate for an office because I didn't know where they stood & for those which I did know, I disagreed with them, so no one got my vote. How does that make me a RWE?
FWIW, I now am slightly right of center mostly because the liberal left has lowered its morals & ethics to new lows. The more they pass of their lies & deceit, their acts of treachery & their relentless slanderous attacks, the more I am inclined to move away from them. That's because I cannot stand unrepentant liars, the politics of personal destruction & acts of treachery purely for political gain.
"But where you really expose your far right of center flank is when you use the shibboleth "liberal media”. There is no truth to the phrase if only because I say so. You see, I am a liberal and I recognize my own kind. The media is neither with us nor of us."
Well, I say you are factually wrong. I didn't come to this conclusion because I am a RWE - that is patently false. I came to it because I am sick & tired of slanted, biased, distorted & deceitful reporting being passed off as factual, complete, balanced & objective reporting. What gets passed off these days as objective journalism is a complete joke.
See the three links below & also all 100+ replies to those links. They factually show that most major media outlets lean very liberal & they no longer report objective, balanced news. There are studies & polls among those links that clearly support this. There are countless examples of liberal media bias among those links.

You may disagree if you wish, but I can factually & accurately support my biased POV with an overwhelming amount of evidence. So far, all you have offered is your biased POV.
Is there anything compelling you might have to offer besides your biased POV? |
