Personally, I don’t care what words people use.

They are just words. People say all sorts of things.

That thing that she has called muslims, I have also said.

I have also said it minus the word sand. I’ve said it jokingly with friends, and I have said it in anger.

I think if each of us were held accountable for every word that has come out of our mouths, then we would all be in deep, deep trouble.

I have to agree with trump on this subject. They are just words.

What really matters is the actions we take in this world.

And that doesn't make you an evil person, but liberals have a hard time differentiating between mere words, and concrete actions or things. To utter the word, in their world, is to do the deed or be the thing.

I think that sort of thinking goes to the root of what it means to be a liberal. You have to supplant reality (in your mind) with theoretical constructs that don't actually exist.

You've got to believe and trust in the dogma of liberalism to such a degree, that when confronted with such things as evidence, proof, existence, results, facts, logic, reason, effects, OR the lack thereof, you simply dismiss such realities out of hand.

In that wise, merely stating a thing makes it so, or makes it not so. Calling a patriot a bigot or a traitor is all that's required to prove to other liberals that such a person is indeed, a bigot or traitor.

Strangely enough, liberals also tend to redefine words in such a way, that those words convey new meanings never known or intended. Affordable now means unaffordable. Peace now means war. Tolerance now means intolerance. Fair share now means unfair burden. Families now means unnatural humanoid unions. Transparent now means blackout secrecy....ad infinitum.

In that vein, it's hard to see liberals giving Hillary a pass on uttering certain words or phrases that have already been baked into their lexicon as verboten and evil.

I agree, BUT....progressives EQUATE WORDS WITH ACTIONS....so we play the game and at least EXPOSE THEIR WORDS, too.
