For what it’s worth, I like Snopes when it comes to debunking or finding the truth on anything NON-political. When it comes to politics, Snopes is decidedly left-leaning. I’m not saying that validates what Beck is saying, but I do take anything they say regarding politics with a grain of salt.

 

For what it's worth Hobo. I think of Keith Olberman like you think of Beck, maybe worse. I'll check that stuff out and get back with you when I get a chance.

Also. I think I've done pretty good at being civil with you after our initial introduction buuutttt........I would appreciate it if you would quit talking down to me like I can't read or follow a story. I know we disagree but I'm not an idiot just becuase I don't follow your way of thinking. I DO check things out and feter out what I think is right and wrong.

I was wondering who the 3 people were who were watching Olberman. It's nice to know now that I know who one of them is.

 

Okay, I checked them out, well one of them. The snopes thing just says that 2 of the guys, (Republicans) were appointed by Bush. Okay......I don't or didn't see where Bush himself had anything to do with the loan, especially since it was done in 2009. I'm pretty sure obama was in office then if my math is correct. I even googled "George Bush and Petrobras" and still didn't come up with anything, anything significant anyway. Maybe I missed something you wanted me to see but I am illiterate you know. :roll: Your going to believe what you want too and I'm going to believe what I want too.

As far as the media matters story goes, I didn't even look at it. I know the lefty articles say Soros doesn't have anything to do with them but I am a believer that he does, so I'm not wasting my time.

I will admit one thing, to your chagrine I'm sure, but I am closed minded when it comes to my beliefs, what I read and who I listen too. I know that's not the PC way to be but hey....read my signature line.

I Yam what I Yam!!! As are you :thumbsup:

Oh boy!! Wouldn't WE have fun at a "political" bar sometime?? :lol2:

I KNOW that Keith is a Liberal, and I don't agree with SOME of his opinions. But, I DO like his show because he dispells all the LIES and STUPIDITY that the real HYPER rightwingnuts have said during the day. Things like that ANGLE woman in Nevada wanting to do away with Social Security. Yeah... THAT will get her alot of votes! Or that Chicken Lady who she beat out who wanted to pay doctors with chickens! :hellno::lol2:

Okay... when you're right, you're right! (and you are definitely FAR right! LOL!) Don't take it personally, robertt. I talk down to ALL conservatives JUST like they talk down to ME like I'm some kind of a liberal nut! It was told to me many times.... you have to have a thick skin to be on this forum.

I KNOW I threw a little jab in there at ya.... but, truth is... I didn't read all of the mediamatters link either, cuz it was more difficult to follow WHAT was being said by BECK and what was the rebuttal. So, in a way... I was trying to be helpful!

I DO appreciate how you've "taken" to me... and I think I LOVE you too! :rofl:

Sorry.... I've been drinking again! :booze:
No, REALLY.... I have no problem with you. I can tell that you have a brain. I just wish you'd broaden your horizons a bit when it comes to news sources. But.... that's NOT what you conservatives do! :lol:

Seriously though... REALLY.... I don't mean to "oppress" you! I think you're A-OKAY! I bet we'd hit it off pretty good if we ever met. I'll TRY to keep a check on myself... but, I YAM WHAT I YAM!! :lol2:

Okay... in case you didn't "get it," LOL!!! I've said I'm sorry!

Okay... now THAT was funny!

But, actually.... there are FIVE of us! I have a mouse in each of my front pockets. You should hear them laugh when Olberman SLAMS another rightwing IDIOT! :lol2:

 

We probably would. Actually, I would like to meet you sometime. I think ALOT get's lost in translation on here, not just with us but alot of us.

You know.....I could turn this around and say the same thing about Beck. So who wins? We'll call it a draw :thumbsup:

I work outside so my skin is thickening a tad. If I feel I'm being talked "down" too, I tend to get defensive. Needing thicker skin: Noted!


Yes I am, and very comfortable with it thank you. :smokin:

Okay. I actually laughed at that. We are enemies so stop it! issedoff:

I've tried, but I threw up in my mouth so I had to stop uke:
