Obama administration that never was

How do you refute a talking point stating that Trump is a racist? There have been countless threads where many have tried. In each case, the one reciting the talking point simply goes through their well rehearsed list of supporting talking points. It is a pointless exercise that I prefer to avoid.

First thing you might want to do is stop ranting about ‘‘LW talking points’’, it makes you look a bit unhinged. Trump has made statements that do appear racist, the best thing to do is just move on.

Not a chance. When someone uses talking points as a mainstay in their arguments, I will call them out on it.

Well, I’ve done the best I can, you obviously can’t understand.

I understand quite well. I’m not sure why you believe it is your place to tell me what to do, but hey.

I was curious to see if you were missing the point of discussion or just intellectually lazy. It appears it’s the latter.

Let me guess…’‘LW talking point’’

Thus far you haven’t recited any LW talking points if that is what you are asking. Beyond that I fail to see the point you are trying to make, other than trying to get me to do your bidding.

Unless you have a point to make, maybe we should just move on.

Why does one engage in a conversation then run off making sure everyone knows they are leaving. No need to stand on ceremony, grandstanding, it’s stupid, if a person wants to leave then just do it. The inane need to have some sort of last word is childish.

It’ s funny to watch. He frequently does this.

It’s also interesting how he often combines it with the ‘‘LW talking points’’ excuse for when he gets caught in an intellectually difficult situation.

I don’t find the recitation of talking points to be intellectually challenging, but apparently you do.

Then why do you do it?

Again, you lack understanding. Your use of ‘‘talking points’’ is a device to avoid discussing the point at hand.

Nothing of substance to talk about lately. Better resurrect old threads. lol

How about a birther thread? You people love that stuff.

The irony of the statement you responded to is simply too amusing to not appreciate.

Nah, libs will just end up defending brother-sister incest. A step up from defending child predators like Biden, but an equal waste of my time nonetheless.

theduke · 2019-07-22T18:55:52.850Z

Thanks…I think.

MidwestIndy · 2019-07-22T18:57:35.079Z

I was talking about what the person wrote about choosing not to engage in talking points recitals, when the person making that statement does it constantly.

That was so clever, Six-Foot!! Where have you been that you have developed such a keep sense of humor?
