NPR had Cormier on at 10:00 AM-————positively salivating over the news-——and we taxpayers pay for this garbage.

The dishonest media fools never learn a thing. How many Trump slingshot hits do they need between their eyes before they realize never to mess with the biblical David of our times?

The lie was picked up and broadcast throughout the world. There were no retractions. This is what they do. They know danmed well that the deliberate lie will be believed, talked about, chiseled in concrete, and enshrined in history as absolute truth.

They accomplished what they set out to do.

The old saying....A lie will travel around the world before the truth can get it’s pants on.

NPR and PBS should not receive taxpayer money.

I think this guy might still be alive. Somebody that looks exactly like him came to empty my septic tank a few weeks ago.

Remember when Romney proposed he would end public funding of PBS and NPR? And the liberal reaction was that he wanted to kill off Big Bird. And Romney came back grovelling saying he loved Big Bird.

Just an example of how issues get so distorted.

Every"Ahab" must have their "Moby Dick"


Trump, the "Great White Whale" has destroyed many fleets of "Pequods" with the liberal captains and their misguided crews sunk in the depths of the seas of their own blind hatred and vainglory.

And the great beast, with the harpoons sticking out like quills, bear witness to the baseless charges thrown at him and yet he still roams the oceans awaiting the next foolhardy editor or "talking heads" willing to take on the "Moby Dick" of politics.

” I am now finishing a 36 year career as a CPA. We have a code of ethics and are a profession (doesn’t mean all CPAs are good or honest, but we have a way to enforce the code if we catch ‘em).”

Ostensibly so does the legal profession which also purports to be a self regulating “profession”. Yet very few attorneys are disbarred. I’ve noticed there has been no rush by the liberal bar association in New York to disbar Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohn, despite Cohen pleading guilty to multiple felonies and admitting he violated attorney-client privilege.

I once retained a “respected” and politically connected at the state level attorney, and paid a hefty retainer, to file a lawsuit. Weeks went by and there was no action, even though at the meeting where I paid the money the attorney promised he would file within days. He would not return telephone calls, written letters, nor would he make an appointment to see me. After doing some investigation on my own I discovered the attorney had done considerable work for a very close friend of the defendant.

Frustrated I went to see a senior attorney at a premier law firm in the same town. I specifically asked him about finding a complaint with the state bar association. The second attorney told me the apparent conflict of interest was real. He also told me not to expect any action or refund of retainer from the original attorney. If I filed a complaint with the state bar they would go through the motions of an “investigation” but my original attorney was so powerful in the state nothing would happen. Likely the original attorney would send me a letter stating he had used my entire retainer researching the law and had determined my case was not strong enough to take to trial. The original documents I provided him to support my case would be inadvertently “lost”. The bar association would dismiss my complaint.

After that experience, I determined there is no ethical “profession” in the United States of America.

Which reminds me, has anyone told Rudy to stay off TV?

I like the guy but he has turned into a walking Gaffe Machine.

TV characters said those words but the liberal Larry David wrote it for them to repeat as fact.

It was a Wag the Dog from the Deep State. They were stuck on a bus driving around in circles and needed a reset. Each and every member of the DSM (Deep State Media) is obviously expendable to the Deep. Picture this - Conan the Barbarian being given a Tour of the Snake Kings Capital. The Snake looks up at a DTM member and says, come to me my child. And then proclaims. That is real power. Lol. In other words - Progressives are a bunch of stupid toads.

It's not difficult to distort an issue when you have a willing accomplice like Romney.

Sounds like you were pretty decent in math. So was I. I suppose you did as I did and discovered journalism was no kind of profession for someone able to make a living with math, LOL!

Yeah, even back in the 70's there were an abundance of political hacks. Just not nearly EVERY urinalist like today.
