Facebook Exchange With Xtian Fundie Friend About George Will And Rep. Ilhan Omar

Image result for "pax on both houses" george will
Thank you George Will, professor emeritus of American Conservatism.
This generation of “conservatives” is too benighted to comprehend the light.
Here's the key bit:
"I believe that what this president has done to our culture, to our civic discourse ... you cannot unring these bells and you cannot unsay what he has said, and you cannot change that he has now in a very short time made it seem normal for schoolboy taunts and obvious lies to be spun out in a constant stream.”
That's George Will. Not Rachel Maddow. And it's George Will saying that what Trump is doing, has done and will do to -- and with -- the presidency is more destructive than the actions of a president who was forced to resign in order to keep from being impeached.”

  • Karen Kolbinsky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryweuBVJMEA George Will had a whole lot to say about how the Clinton gang were as corrupt and dragging the country down as the Obama administration had.. make sure you go back to read everything he has to say about every president.. it may be only Ronald Reagan ever received his full approval if even he had.

  • Karen Kolbinsky You obviously aren't paying attention to the thousands if not millions of others who are walking out on the Democrats right now based on the openly anti-Semitic, hateful purely RACIST rhetoric against the Jews and all who support the Jewish people who really believe in their God and right to their one and ONLY homeland on the face of the Earth..

  • Karen Kolbinsky Thousands of Americans who have immigrated here from Islamic countries are rising up to speak out.. especially the women who are deeply concerned about Omar's radical Islaimic position and condemnation of our nation, the right of Jews to live in Israel and all of the other rabid attacks on Jews and Americans leaving her mouth on an almost daily basis.
  • Karen Kolbinsky As are millions of African and Hispanic Americans, Jews and those immigrants from all over the world who who are here legally so fed up with AOC's and all the "racist rhetoric" they are finally standing up for themselves and walking away from a party that's deeply betrayed them. Check out Donna Brazille's version of most recent history and what really happened to anyone who dared cross the "queen" of the DNC who warned whatever man spoke up to challenger her what may happen to them if they don't sit down, shut up and be happy with his share of pork and cream.
    • Alan Archibald One of your dishonest tricks is to "pull numbers out of thin air" in order to make your weak case look strong. 

      Show me one single link indicating that "thousands of Islamic immigrants are speaking out to condemn Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota." 

      Just one. 

      Similarly, show me one link that "millions of African and Hispanic Americans and Jews are so fed up with AOC's racist rhetoric that they are finally standing up and walking away from a party that's deeply betrayed them." 

      Just one link Karen. 

      Just one. 

      When you make this stuff up -- and go so far as to spout bogus numbers - you reveal the essential falsehood of your "fact-finding" method. 

      Simultaneously, you offer continual assurance that you are - above all - interested in "Truth" - the whole truth, nothing but the truth. 

      So I'm sure you won't do it again. Isn't that right? 

      In future you will always provide corroborating links. 

      Verdad? 

      Welcome to fact-finding, truth-telling Reality. 

      On the other side of the fence, here is how Fox News lies about Rep. Ilhan Omar. (And you lap it up like a lap dog.)

      Snopes Probes Rep. Omar's Foul Mouth: How Fox News Takes Tiny Truths And Twists Them Into Gargantuan Lies

      C'mon Karen!

      Your turn. 

      Show us where this Snopes probe of Fox's slander is false or mistaken. 

      Explain how Fox News was not utterly dishonest and panderingly-slanderous in taking a tiny truth and twisting it into a gargantuan lie. 

      An aside... 

      In another of your A.M. comments you urge me not to pay attention to fact-finding organizations and, to this end, you single out Snopes. 

      Let me bring you up to speed on Snopes.

      Last year I participated in lengthy dialogue with a Trumpista "conservative" who was similarly invested in impeaching Snopes credibility. 

      Over a period of months, I urged this fellow to provide me with three links showing that Snopes had substantively misreprented the truth (on ANY political issue) without publicly correcting their error.

      He never -- despite a dozen requests -- provided a single link.

      He didn't because he couldn't. 

      Snopes is a remarkably trustworthy organization which will always correct its rare mistakes.

      I make this same challenge to you in full confidence that you will be unable to provide a single link of uncorrected error BECAUSE SNOPES IS A TRUTHFUL ORGANIZATION.

      And, notably, you will not publicize your discovery of Snopes' truthfulness because to do so would discombobulate the encompassing matrix of falsehood and "confirmation bias" in which you live.

      "Confirmation Bias And The Power Of Disconfirming Evidence"
      http://paxonbothhouses.blogspot.com/.../confirmation-bias...

      At minimum, your inability to provide me one link is the kind of "credibility proof" that you should personally accept rather than resorting to the fetid bullshit circulating on QAnonsense - the world's foremost purveyor of "confirmation bias."

      You would also benefit -- as would everyone in your social circle -- from paying less attention to Jeffrey Epstein (who admittedly deserves attention) and paying (relatively) more attention to Fox News to realize its bone-deep commitment to pimping political pornography.

      Fox and their right-wing thralls pimp substantive falsehood, and they pimp it ALL THE TIME. 

      It's Faux News' daily bread.

      You will likely take offense at this assertion of pimping/pandering -- but will simultaneously provide goosestepping support for whoremonger-cheat-misogynist-racist-authoritarian-all-round-sleaze, claiming he deserves a "mulligan."
