And many on the Left still try to claim Obama was treated harshly. Obama has been and still is the most coddled president in American history. Trump hasn't even taken office and has already endured more crass and pathetic treatment than any other president in American history. Unlike Man-Made Global Warming, this is indisputable.

Good read.

Some good points in there but it gets lost in all the Fox-News-speak that sounds more like the one-sided ravings of Rush Limbaugh.  Some of what is listed there were the concoctions of the Republicans seeking to win elections and not based in truth.  Don't drink all the kool-aid and lose your ability to be analytical.

Lol, I'm a milk drinker (last of a dying breed).  You gotta loosen up.  It's just humor, and directed at Progressive Democrats, and not a fine Progressive Republican like yourself. :)

Hey...that's real.  I admire Rush for speaking up for a lot of Americans ...and also for not being PC, but he gets too far off the rails for me.  To be taken seriously, he has to objectively look at an issue from both sides.  How serious can we take Rachel Maddow?  She's the Limbaugh for the other side.

Several on here talk about how Rush "gets too far off the rails" but never seem to provide any evidence.

Rush is as rough on RINOs as he is on liberals...you sure can't say the same about Maddow.

Maybe you can finally be the one to provide some example of Rush's lack of objectivity.

He is very good at discerning liberal nonsense...that's usually what grinds on the left, but I'm open to any off the rail examples someone can provide.

Having said all this, the best way to debate is not to start with the FoxNews / Limbaugh argument that you must simply be regurgitating talking points from these folks, so your argument is invalid.

Debate the point, not where you think someone heard it from.

The problem with your prospective is you immediately rule out well known and documented points made by the Left.

I listened to Rush for some time.  My brother, there's just too much evidence to share in this forum.  I agree that we need to substantiate claims, but Rush is a guy that pretty much makes the argument (like Fox News).

Will agree that Rush slams Repubs when they get away from ideology and Maddow seldom goes there.  There was a guy that used have a radio talk show that was broadcast in our market.  His show went off the air back in '06 or '07.  He was a conservative guy.  I listened to him daily and just can't remember his name.  This guy was more analytical and objective ...especially when compared to Rush.  Rush was in his shock jock mode and fishing for ratings.

Lots of room on this forum...go for it.

And what are these well known documented points that I rule out?

Then these three statements are representative of most of what Mr. Limbaugh has to say and therefore, none of his thoughts/comments are to be believed/accepted?  Did you have any problem with NBC altering the George Zimmerman tape or most of the major media outlets solidly promoting the notion that Michael Brown said "hands up don't shoot"?

Altering ...say what?  

Zimmerman sorta proved who he is.  That guy was wrong as two left shoes running outside playing cop and killing a kid.  If Travon was breaking in his house and creating a threat, protect yourself and family.  If Travon was waiving a gun or sticking up someone...I can see self defense.

You don't think all these unarmed people being shot is a new thing, do ya?  We just have camera phones now.

A well known point is that Politifact plays fast and loose with the truth when evaluating who plays fast and loose with the truth.

LEFTY LIES!!! LMAO!  Limbaugh does what he does and spreading truth is not first on the list.  I'm not saying I disagree with everything he says.

Yes, ALTERING the tape.  If you are unaware of that circumstance, you are considerably less "enlightened" than you purport to be.  I don't care what Trayvon was doing or whether or not he was "just out having a few skittles"  The media overtly misrepresented the tape so as to influence public opinion and that ought to trouble someone who is searching for the truth.

Then I would expect better examples than you provided...should be thousands out there after so many years.

The fact is that there are not...and your assertion is false.

    • Where were the 8 Omaha teams in D1's preseason top 25 poll... 2. Florida 8. A&M 9. Tennessee 13. N.C.State 14. Virginia 15. North Carolina Kentucky - unranked Florida State - unranked
    • That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.
    • I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.
    • But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling. 
    • Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
