The Bergdahl Story

So that justifies this one lying?

I don't suppose that excuse flew with your Mom and Dad; "But everyone else is doing it"

 

Of course. As long as one republican president in history did something Obama can do it as well.

 

I wonder how big the shit-fit would be if Obama were the President that evacuated Marines immediately following a terrorist car bombing of their base in a foreign country.

 

QED

 

Or invaded Iraq because of WMDs.

Others lied so I guess it of OK for him to continue to insult our intelligence with his.

 

Bill Clinton said he would have done it so it's a ok. (Using their own argument against them)

 

You will have to forgive me for asking you to go back and point out where I said it was OK, because I can't find it.

 

Apparently not viewing him as the worst POTUS ever makes one complicit. From what I gather.

 

Where did I say anything about lying? You're trying to make the argument fit your narrative.

My post was simply to highlight how different sides rationalize things so they feel better. I don't exclude myself either.

 

So why say this at all?

 

Can't disagree with that logic. Well said

 

Where did I say anything about WMD's or Clinton? You're both trying to make the argument fit your narrative...again.

My post was simply to highlight how different sides rationalize things so they feel better. I don't exclude myself either.

 

Why not? Is it not true?

 

Why else would you say that others also lied if you were not trying to justify his lying?

 

You don't hate Obama. You're enabling him....

I too tire of everything digressing into an "Obama is the worst thing in our nation's history!" rants.

I've not been missed, I'm sure, but that's why I try to avoid political topics as of late. I know what it's going to turn into. And I've grown bored with that.

With that, I'll quietly bow out. Please continue.

 

That distinction still belongs to Carter.

 

I lied. One last post before I go.

And forgive me Dooz, if I'm overstepping, but I think he was admitting to one group having a splinter in their eyes while the group pointing out that splinter the loudest has a plank in their eye.

Later.

 

Haha, at least we've come an understanding of our disagreement.

 

It is amazing that every left leaning person here feels this was a serious mistake, and yet that isn't enough.

 

I like the translation with log better. It's more appropriate for both sides.
