This Bill O'Reilly character is quite a douche, he says Bernie is going to take his house, but the FoxNew goon doesn't imply that as a metaphor but as a fact. Yeez, why does FoxNews even exist?

It's not just O'Reilly but a reflection of what most conservatives believe (i.e. are TOLD to believe) of Sanders, and a preview of what dog whistle terminology WILL be coming from their ranks should they find themselves in a race against him. From one of their "sources" back in May:

Bernie Sanders: Don't Laugh

Awhile back (in this or another thread, can't recall where) I stated that my vote in the Democratic primaries would go to the one I think would MOST likely ensure a Republican (ANY Republican) won't win the presidency. I must confess that if I had to step into the booth today, I couldn't say for sure, right up to flipping that lever, WHICH of the two I'd vote for.

LMFAO. Don't know whose post is more hilarious. Yours, where you say it's a "reflection of what most conservatives believe, or are TOLD (love the ubiqiutious italics and bold type) to believe, of Sanders..." Or the claim of the poster's to which you were responding that "the FoxNews goon doesn't imply as a metaphor (that Bernie will take his house), but as a fact." Almost as funny as seeing Watter chase Sanders down the hallway with the absurd questions. Gee, no one has a sense of humor anymore (except when it's on SNL).

I truly have to laugh at you both, because if you believed your own BS, well then ......

Hilarious, just hilarious.

Pray tell, which part do you find MOST hilarious?

The FACT (as reported by statistical analysis) that as many as 70% of "mostly conservatives" get their news almost exclusively from FOX? Or the FACT that Fox and O'Reilly have consistently tried to smear and brand Sanders as a "socialist" (or perhaps more accurately, their view of one)??


I COULD post links to the above. But since your type don't bother the READ 'em.............

First, your "facts" above have nothing to do with your earlier post. And if it is a "fact" that as many as 70% of hard core conservatives (so now you are already adding qualifiers to your earlier post from "most conservatives") get their news almost (haha, yet another qualifier) exclusively from Fox, this in itself does not confirm your statement that it is a "reflection of what conservatives believe, or are told to believe, about Sanders." Once again, you're making those big leaps BS, I meam BC.

And second, Sanders is a self-described socialist. He became a Democrat last year. :rolleyes: His platform is certainly socialist. I get you and other supporters need to tone down his past, but it's all out there, The NY Post went as far as calling him a Communist just yesterday.

Oh... so now he's a COMMIE. I stand corrected. :confused:

It is indeed what conservatives believe AND are told to believe about Sanders, which should come as no surprise, NOR should be cause for any consternation on YOUR part, I'd think. Hell, a not so recent poll showed most conservatives STILL believe Obama to be a Muslim. So none of it is as big a leap as you'd HOPE.

As for my "qualifiers" forgive me for at least TRYING to be accurate (not that YOU could be bothered by such trivials). But if you're going to quibble over them, at least get that part correct. I changed it FROM "hard core conservatives" TO "mostly conservatives"... not the other way around. And I did so to ACCURATELY reflect the statistics to which I had alluded, specifically, this PEW survey cited below:

Dude, this is why no one, save for a few of your knob slobbering buddies, likes to play with you. Do not put words into my mouth - get it? Someone challenges you and your little spins, and you get your titties in a twist. I presume I will now be accused of calling Bernie a COMMIE in future posts.

Because you say something about Bernie, or profess something that "most" conservatives believe, or are told to believe, does not make it true. Shocker. Probably hard for someone like you, who loves to pontificate, to imagine, but true. Many people outside the walls of your basement lair have a brain and can make decisions on their own. Really.

And your little disclaimer is quite funny (you're on a roll today!!!). Trying to be accurate is a goal you will never achieve especially when trying to quote, state, infer, interpret what you think a "conservative" believes, or as you proclaim, is told to believe (I guess by Martians to boot?).

Time for "it rubs the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again."

Wondered when the old Reds under the bed bullshit would surface. Return to McCarthyism is it? If Bernie is a communist, what does that make Trump?

An "Internet troll" or "Forum Troll" is a person who posts outrageous message to bait people to answer. Trolls delight in sowing discord on the forums. A troll is someone who inspires flaming rhetoric, someone who is purposely provoking and pulling people into flaming discussion. Flaming discussions usually end with name calling and a flame war.

A classic troll tries to make us believe that he is a skeptic. He is divisive and argumentative with need-to-be-right attitude, "searching for the truth", flaming discussion, and sometimes insulting people or provoking people to insult him. A troll is usually an expert in reusing the same words of its opponents and in turning it against them.

While he tries to present himself as a skeptic looking for truth ... his messages usually sound as if it is the responsibility of other forum members to provide evidence that what forum is all about is legitimate.

]He (and in at least 90% of cases it is he) tries to start arguments and upset people.

Sometimes, he is skeptical, trying to scare people, trying to plant fear in their hearts. Sometimes, Internet troll is trying to spin conflicting information, is questioning in an insincere manner, flaming discussion, insulting people, turning people against each other, harassing forum members, ignoring warnings from forum moderators.

Trolling is a form of harassment that can take over a discussion. Well meaning defenders can create chaos by responding to trolls. The best response is to ignore it, or to report a message to a forum Negative emotions stirred up by trolls leak over into other discussions. Normally affable people can become bitter after reading an angry interchange between a troll and his victims, and this can poison previously friendly interactions between long-time users

The NY Post is to newspapers as woodpeckers are to carpenters.

The question was fair game as we all agree for a presidential candidate. As for his retort, he should learn from Chris Christe those bites don't play well with the media or the public. Whatever you think, he doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell against the Clinton machine.

Common sense says you are exactly right. That same impeccable common sense said she would win in 2008, and that a one term senator who had a funny name and was black had no chance in hell to beat her. The Clinton machine has cracks in it - big ones. Her e-mail problem is getting worse, not better. For good reason people don't trust her. Hell I don't trust her, and I am probably going to vote for her. She is beatable.

Lol... I didn't see this bunch of bullshit until just now....

1. nowhere did I say YOU called Sanders a commie. Surely SOMEONE did. So maybe YOU'RE putting words into your OWN mouth.

2. I'm entitled to my opinions as are you, Mr. "97% of black people voted for Obama because he's black" ... Mr. "Teachers teach in public schools so they can cruise through life".... Mr. "Black people in New York under stop and frisk should just cooperate more". Should I go ON about the shit YOU'VE said that "does not make it true"?

At least I try to back my statements up references. (Oh, I forgot. You can't be bothered to READ them.)

3. No, I'd imagine you WOULDN'T like "disclaimers" "qualifiers" or anything ELSE that doesn't allow you and those of YOUR ilk to pigeonhole and mischaracterize an opposing point of view.


Go -------------- yourself.
