    But I would read a book by a conservative. Someone equal to Joe Conason.




    I am not familiar with the tone of his books. Is he a satirist or would you consider him a real research oriented writer?



    If you consider him the latter, I would recommend one of Thomas Sowell's books.

    Then you should try pm'ing your grievences as well. You should also try some meds to stop your pms'ings about pm'ing or just posting with regard to on topic jokes.

    Oh, I forgot liberals don't think that's funny.





    Oh crap they don't like angry white males as well.

    Trumptman, you are implying that Sowell went to the moon on the first Apollo missions!



    At least, according to you definition of imply; which apparently means to accuse someone of saying something you just completely make up.

    You know why we don't have to read a book of her's? Because she is completely full of shit. And lots of it. No sane person can even get through a paragraph without getting sick from the smell. Franken, on the other hand, apparently has gone to great lengths to make sure the facts are correct. While I may disagree with some of his politics, what I have read so far in his book about Coulter, O'Reilly and Hannity appears completely bulletproof. Please, correct me if I am wrong.



    And that's just the first little bit. Wait until you get to the parts about Rove. Not that it is anything new. It's just nice to see it all in one place. Like the fabricated Clinton trashing of the White House. Or his planting of a bug in his own office to make it appear a political opponent was spying. And on, and on...



    Not that you are any different, trumptman. Even in this thread you are completely making shit up, just like your higher-profile brethren

    I have no idea to what you are referring.



    He asked for a conservative author who was not Coulter, Hannity, or O'Reilly (I assume he also means Limbaugh and the like.) In otherwords no loud talking t.v. personalities.



    Thomas Sowell is definately worth reading. Regardless of what strangeness you wish to suggest.

    Oh yes that is why I post links and you post name calling. I make "shit" up all the time. I do it on purpose to keep you posting on these boards instead of going out and working at shelters, being a big brother to fatherless kids and things of that nature.



    Keep falling for my master plan. Keep repeating your truth made of lies, accusations, and name calling so that you can claim your compassion instead of actually demonstrating it through actions. Because I assure you that if you and everyone on here actual got the hell off the computer and walked your talk, we wouldn't need a single government program.



    Enjoy.

    Yes Shawn, and you are so effective at proving this by... repeating it until it is true since you refuse to



    1) post ideas

    2) post research

    3) link to something





    Just keep repeating it over and over, and also keep telling yourself that by doing this others will believe you. However they might, a sucker is born every minute. There must be one around waiting to listen to your next repetition.

    Yeah, you do make "shit" up, and all someone needs to do is look a couple of posts up to see it.



    BTW: putting "shit" in quotes doesn't solve the whole lying problem you seem to have. Neither does trying to avoid accountability by talking about a 'master plan.' But you know what might help? Medication.



    And sorry, but accusing people of saying things you completely make up doesn't make you a victim, it makes you a liar.

    Yes and I should have added, get ready for more name calling, unsupported accusations and other pointless sarcasm posing as intelligent discussion from giant.

    You know what, how about I just respond to every one of your posts with the following until you accept accountability for lying:



    And sorry, but attacking people by accusing them of saying things you completely make up doesn't make you a victim, it makes you a liar.



    And it's not unsupported. It's right here on this page. Just like it is in every thread you post.

    Listen man, I don't care. Most of us just want to have a discussion without having to wade through the lies you bring to every thread.



    Keep lying, and we'll keep pointing them out.

    I think we should actually thank trumptman. Who knew that were in on this very board we would have a living example of what is described in the book. It's a typical lie like the ones in the book. It's a totally obvious lie used to attack someone. He even went so far as to add the classic technique of lying and using that lie to call me "disingenuous." Beautiful.



    BTW: I was unaware that there was actually a GAO report that said the supposed damage done to the white house by clinton staffers wasn't any worse than previous admins.

    Yes and better yet, while Franken had footnotes, 14 researchers and Lexis/Nexis, you two have the ability to refute nothing while repeating yourselves over and over, crying liar, liar like 4 year olds.



    I mean yes Shawn you did such a good job of "pointing out" how CNN would never endanger the first amendment by threatening to sue over a satire. Oh wait, they did.



    Likewise neither of you liked how I showed Franken himself LIED and used Havard letterhead in an unauthorized manner. Nothing like starting off with lies to write a book about lies. Who better to write a book about "Lies" than a man who starts by telling them himself.



    And giant, well you would have actually post something substative to refute. Since you don't do anything but repeatitively name call, there really isn't anything to refute.



    Repetition... repetition...repetition...you guys are like Nazis. Keep repeating it until it must be true.

    well, hell, trumptman. We wouldn't have to keep pointing it out if you a) didn't keep on lying about what people say and b) actually dealt with the fact that you lie to substantiate arguments

    there you go, boy. Just call me a nazi. What a grown up way of dealing with someone calling you out on your lies. Too bad I have yet to start using avoidance tactics like that, me being 4 and all.
