I don't think I have. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 15/07/2017 02:34:27 AM

You're alleging that hypocrisy implies "everyone agrees that the rule is wrong and should be done away with."

I don't believe that's the case. I think the rank and file of the GOP are largely lying through their teeth when they claim that it's not a big deal, and I think in the same circumstances Clinton would already have been impeached. The idea that Kushner has amended his security clearance to add 100 names beggars belief.

"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."

No thanks. We don't need Mr. Magoo as President. Tom - 14/07/2017 08:46:14 PM 545 Views
And why would we imprison Trump, counselor? Tom - 14/07/2017 08:47:34 PM 493 Views
This is your defense? "Other people would do it too?" *NM* Ghavrel - 14/07/2017 03:36:26 AM 243 Views
To quoque or not to quoque, I think the essential defense is there is NO wrongdoing in such events Cannoli - 14/07/2017 04:45:41 AM 559 Views

No clue. I could google, of course, but that would be cheating. *NM* damookster - 16/07/2017 03:29:52 PM 286 Views

Extend the query to Wikileaks publishing the documents, then. Ghavrel - 14/07/2017 10:34:53 AM 547 Views
Are you sure? aerocontrols - 14/07/2017 02:29:51 PM 404 Views
