Yes, a flaming liberal.......that means intelligent, progressive, on top of the facts. The exact opposite of a GOPer like yourself!
But you reject facts all of the time. You contradict yourself. A fact is a fact regardless of who broke it. When you reject the truth because the biased liberal formerly mainstream media (FMSM) are not touting it, you show yourself to be a biased partisan.
Let me put it this way..........for at least six months after the war in Iraq started, Fox News would report breaking news stating that WMDs had been found in Iraq. I would find out the next day from the mainstream press that FOX was wrong. I never heard Fox News apologize for their 'mistakes'. Furthermore, I never saw a news channel with less news and more rightwing propaganda than Fox News. You think you are getting news but what you are getting is GOP and WH spin.
So when you talk to be about bias, it may be best to clean up your own house before attacking others.
As for me contradicting myself, please show me where I have done that and I will try to avoid doing that in the future.
You mean more intolerant, less critical of your own side's viewpoints, more critical of the other side's viewpoints...
Yes, I admit it........when it comes to the right and their views, I have lost any objectivity, understanding and willingness to compromise. In the last 4 years, the right has taught me that they don't play by those values and if I want to be heard, I must give up those values as well.
You can be reasonable, but this is not an example of it. I admit what I am, you appear to deny what you are. I am a moderate conservative. You appear to me to be further left than I am right. Because you choose to insulate yourself within a cocoon of liberal media, you do not perceive it that way. Your life of liberal half truths allows you to perceive only part of the political spectrum.
Sir, if you support GW Bush, you are no moderate. I don't know where you live but where I live, supporters of Bush are well to the right of center........usually on the radical fringe.
My God, the GOP senatorial candidate in Illinois wants voting to elect the Senate stopped and for blacks to be exempted from paying any further income taxes. And he is not the only GOP candidate to come up with crazy and absurd garbage. I almost was going to vote for the GOP candidate for Attorney General in my state until I found out the fool is opposed to mass transit and wants to build more freeways.........with gas over $2 and likely to go higher.
Bush has moved the GOP a few notches right.......that's why you think you're a moderate. Sorry but that's just plain wrong!
As a member of the right, I cannot avoid the liberal press. I am forced to seek out conservative sources. This is a fact.
Fine. Its a free country.
And by more progressive on the facts I presume you mean that facts don't count unless they are from your insular world of leftwing sources.
Facts are facts. For an example, I would not claim that a country has WMDs when I have not checked out all the possibilities. However, that was presented to the American public as a fact by this administration.........actually, by the person most creditable in this administration.........Mr. Powell. And in the process, he ruined his good name.
What I am learning is that that there are facts and then there are FACTS according to Bush.
This is another example of liberal half lies that you have swallowed. What is a SCUD missile? It must not be a WMD. What is a biotoxin, it must not be WMD. What is a nuclear program with over 80% of the work completed to produce nuclear warheads? It must not be a WMD. Tejek, you would not know a WMD until after it killed you.
Well, that's my problem not yours....isn't it? You guys are always so much smarter and wiser when it comes to military things. If it wasn't for you all, I would never have known that Saddam was amassing an Army and building WMDs in order to attack the US. Oh wait, he wasn't......just more rightie BS.
In fact, that's mostly what Fox has on its programming when it doesn't have political pundits trashing liberals..........military scenarios, war things, possible global dangers for the US. You guys are obsessed with aggression, enemies, danger, wars etc. Its why you all scare the bejezus out of me. Its why I want Bush out of the WH.
The simple fact that Saddam was managing the training of Al Qaeda training facilities is not your idea of a working relationship with them. You are living in a Clintonesque world trying to dance on a pin head over what the definition of is, is.
He wasn't managing al Qa'ida facilities.........al Qa'ida was in the north......Kurd country. Saddam didn't have control over the Kurds.
As for Clinton, I wish he could run again. His two terms were the best years in decades for the US.
The FMSM have demonstrated that in their opinion all conservatives are stupid, and that all liberals are smart. You probably don't see the bias of this.
I hope that's true......it will be a start in reversing the past 4 years where the right has trashed liberals unmercifully. In fact, I sense that there is a backlash brewing from all the rightie put downs. I think you are seeing it now in this election. Hopefully, we will be able to come to terms with each other after the election is over.
