This is a specious and ridiculous argument. The Arab world doesn't give a damn about "fairness". Last week they murdered a 14 year old girl for being a rape victim.

Specious = Superficially plausible, but actually wrong...fine...i accept that interpretation although acts like that are not the stuff of the arab in Cairo or the typical arab street which are are trying to bring into the modern world...but no matter...it's an opinion vs another...my question is, why the charged arguments with language like flip-flop, ideologuing the issue, and so forth such as Ten has advanced?

Where does that fit into a discussion ?

Trump Ties for 2nd in GOP Poll

(NEWSER) – Donald Trump has been putting himself out there over the last few weeks, and Republican voters are liking what they see. The Donald is tied with Mike Huckabee for second place in a field of nine possible contenders in a new Wall Street Journal/NBC poll of Republican primary voters. The two men were the choice of 17% of those surveyed. Mitt Romney is in first place with 21%, while Newt Gingrich has 11% and Sarah Palin 10%. Tim Pawlenty, Michelle Bachmann, Rick Santorum, and Haley Barbour all have single-figure support.

Trump "may be a punchline, but when he talks about the way to solve our problems he makes a lot of sense to the average guy out there,” notes a conservative Texas Republican. “I don’t know if people can get over him being the butt of every joke, but for me, he can be serious when it’s time to make real decisions." A narrower poll, scratching Trump, Huckabee, Palin, and Santorum from the list, gave Romney a 20-point lead over Gingrich.
