Are you purposefully obtuse? The Shrike Send a noteboard - 13/04/2017 05:50:44 PM

Yes they are horrid at messaging and that is not likely change so what is the point of focusing on it? Barring impeachment here is there for four more years and shows no signs of getting any better at not saying dumb shit. They pride themselves on not being PC and not prepacking and testing everything before they say, or hell even making sure it is true.

At this point it seems more likely we will spend the next four years more focused on what they say than what they do. If that happens than he may be right and he may have a much better brain than we give him credit for.



If someone is inept in the real world they either get better or they get fired. Simple fact checking is not hard to do. This is not about political correctness. This is about communicating effectively and eloquently. Something the Press Secretary must do. He risks becoming news rather than delivering the message. And that is not good for him or for the President.

I think you're just being recalcitrant here on purpose for whatever reasons you think important. But you and I clearly don't see eye to eye on this so I leave you with this - До свидания.

Sounds a lot like people choosing to be offended random thoughts - 12/04/2017 05:59:26 PM 637 Views
I don't think offended would be the word I would choose damookster - 12/04/2017 06:13:58 PM 676 Views
As I mentioned I have stopped watching the news so not up to date on the digging part. random thoughts - 12/04/2017 07:41:29 PM 630 Views

Which words are you struggling with? random thoughts - 12/04/2017 07:44:26 PM 685 Views
There's no need to be a dick about it. Sareitha Sedai - 13/04/2017 02:25:51 PM 803 Views
there is no need to act like you don't know what he meant to say random thoughts - 13/04/2017 05:04:22 PM 674 Views
I'm not acting. I don't think what he meant is as clear as you seem to. Sareitha Sedai - 13/04/2017 10:07:32 PM 634 Views
Oooh don't get me started. The Shrike - 14/04/2017 01:27:37 PM 596 Views

Good point *NM* Sareitha Sedai - 14/04/2017 05:13:53 PM 373 Views
He failed. There really is no defense. The Shrike - 12/04/2017 06:25:31 PM 640 Views
How is it real issue? Becuase he worded it poorly? random thoughts - 12/04/2017 07:46:15 PM 623 Views
I think you should stop defending him. The Shrike - 13/04/2017 03:08:32 AM 571 Views
