The difference is that you have been given the direct opportunity to condemn them them, on multiple occasions, and refused. It’s not that you haven’t condemned them of your own accord, or started a thread about it, or anything like that. It’s that you’ve been given DIRECT opportunities by me and others to call out Fox, and you tried to deflect away from it and would not condemn it.
I’m not pulling a Glenn Beck style “well, he’s never said he didn’t beat his wife, so he must be a wife beater.” You’ve been directly given chances and asked to condemn Fox for their bias, and you would not do so.
And Trump considers CNN part of the “fake news” media, so what exactly is your problem with Acosta’s question? It was based on a statement Trump actually made.
And you’ve directly refused to answer for Fox’s media bias when pressed. You deflected away, just like Trump tries to do and hope we won’t remember.
It’s OK to just say “I’m OK with right-wing media bias since I agree with it.” There would be more integrity in you admitting that than playing these games with it.
What on earth are you babbling about? You refuse to ever talk about the bias of Fox-that’s not reductive. That’s a query regarding consistency, of which you clearly have none, and you prefer it that way.
You still haven’t made a relevant point with it. He asked a question based on a statement the president made. And?
If the bold is a serious question, then you continue to prove my point. You’ve been given examples of such nonsense from Fox toward Democrats, and you refused to engage. You bleated “that’s not what this thread is about. That’s not what I want to talk about. blah blah blah.”
That you’re even questioning whether other networks acted this way toward Obama proves my point.
You don’t care about media bias-just left-wing bias. Just say the words so we can move on.
Everything I’m saying is completely back by your actions on both this and the old forum. The proof is your REFUSAL to EVER engage on Fox. That says all anyone ever needs to know. You can stop trolling now.
There’s not a lack of evidence. You REFUSING and DEFLECTING away from ever engaging on the topic of Fox’s bias proves it. It’s not that you have never condemned Fox-it’s just that none of us have ever seen it because every time we try to get you to comment on examples of Fox media bias, you deflect and tell us you will not comment on it.
Article II, Section 2, paragraph 2 of the United States Constitution says:
“…and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the Supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for,…”
Notice it calls for the advice and consent of the “Senate”, not the Senate leadership, it is the Senate as a body that provides or with holds consent - the the Majority leader making an arbitrary decision leaving the seat vacant for over a year not based on the qualifications of the nominee, but based on the fact the President was from another party.
Speaking as a Republican I’m ashamed of McConnell’s dereliction of duty.
That’s the delegation of duty. I don’t see how it compels a vote on every nominee.
Personally, I didn’t like it, either. I’m not a fan of political parlor tricks, since they are ultimately short-sighted. That said, the Constitution provides no time frame for giving consent, neither does it compel a vote on every nominee.
It’s not just “not doing it.” It’s REFUSING and DEFLECTING when given the opportunity. Refusal and deflection are all that is needed given that it’s you.
Here’s your chance. Condemn Fox’s bias. I’m teeing the ball up for you. Tell us your feelings on Fox’s bias.
I certainly don’t expect you to do it because I asked. I would expect you to do it if I thought you actually cared about media bias, but I know that’s not the case.
What pay? I find the left-wing media as biased as the right-wing media. Neither side would pay me. That’s quite contrary to you, however, who only carries one side’s water.
