Don’t you know about the executive order which allows elderly people a pass on being politically correct??? ;/
I need to go to the federal register and print that rascal out to put in with my pocket constitution. WOO HOO!
I think its pretty clear he didn't intend his comparison to slavery to be taken literally.
Anything Mr. Bundy said would have been wrong. He could have said, “ The sun is shining” and that would have been twisted by the usual parrots into, “He is racists”.
“Bundy chose his words poorly”
No he did not. He said what he thought and got the point across to anyone that wasn’t checking their Politically Correct Handbook looking for “offensive words or phrases”.
Why are so many people just buying into all this infringement of our language dictated by the liberal left? Everyone has been indoctrinated and they don’t even realize it.
Got it.
Just remember, the opposition is on this website, and normal Freepers need to avoid doing what the opposition wants to do—destroy morale.
Yes, thanks for proving my point.
I sympathize with Bundy but he wouldn’t know a “rhetorical device - exuscitatio” if it bit him in the ass.
Here’s how to recognize Cass Sunstein class of troll posting pattern:
They will use bits of truth mixed with bits of falsehood. There is no other way for them to operate (and this is a gaping weakness).
It’s because their ideology consists in lies. It will ultimately defeat them.
Reminds me of the joke where the guy tells the psychiatrist, “Doc, I can’t shake this feeling of nameless dread.” The psychiatrist tells him, “Don’t worry about that, we have a name for everything.”
And so it is with Rhetoric.
IMO guys like Hannity and Beck have marginalized themselves by going along with the libtard party smear. They are being left behind as the freedom movement heats up. Nobody is really listening to them anymore.
That, my FRiend, says it all.
Indeed! As best he could and his point is valid.
Wow, I hadn’t seen that guy’s whole statement until now. Talk about well said. Bravo to him.
PC is insidious because it squelches uncomfortable truths that must be spoken and understood in order for true progress to be made.
Here’s my dime:
1. I will stand with Mr. Bundy, period.
2. Mr. Bundy has his right to think and say what he believes, even if it means rubbing your nose, in his shorts! Again, I will stand with Mr. Bundy, to preserve that right.
3. If what I have said, offends you, who died and made YOU “god”? (k.m.a.!!!)
Tone down? TONE DOWN?????
If my pointing out the biases out there offends many on the right, then we have lost. That’s a fact.
‘I’ prefer to confront it, not put my head in the sand.
If I had a website or a radio show or otherwise able to communicate to the public, I’d be SCREAMING about it.
Wrong. They will work their way around to calling anybody who doesn't agree with them anything they want to ...regardless.
Why waste time being careful? Do you think they wste time worrying about what conservatives think?
IMO, it's better to laugh at them than to reason with them.
The important question according to the reporters traveling with the POTUS, did he like the green-tea ice cream? How do reasonable people fight that? It's a waste of time.
Be who you are and don't apologize!
Depends on who you are.
No, I’m aware that apologizing to a liberal is the worst thing you can do, they’ll just smell blood and latch on like a (sort of whiney and politically correct) vampire bat. I’m just saying let the words match as closely to the meaning as possible, which you should always do anyway. It will make it harder for them to take you out of context when they decide to.
