It looks like you’ll be looking for another plan.
The thing he spent the most money on was electing Democrats. Hence our destroyed economy.
I think that it is fine to be mindful of the totality of this organization’s aims. At the same time, on this single item, they have made the correct call. While saying this, I am also checking the sky to be certain that it is still blue...
At no time will they fool anyone into believing that they have somehow seen the light. They are an enemy organization. There is no other way to look at it. In this particular, singular instance, though, their stated position is parallel to mine and many others.
Once upon a time the Soviets liked good vodka. In this singular instance, we agreed. Other points varied...
Soros’ playing around in US politics is relatively small. He’s spent tens of millions on elections here so far, but he spends hundreds of millions throughout the world every year.
We can’t do what we’ve done in past discussions.
You’ve made it clear you don’t understand revolutionaries, even when presented with their own words. Be it that you don’t take them seriously, or that you think they’re playing, or that they say things so outlandish that it just doesn’t register.
The bottom line is you want to ignore them and their words, and stick with the reality you’re comfortable with.
That’s something I’m not going to do. There is nothing that revolutionaries do that aligns with our interests. The enemy of my enemy is not my friend.
You're right, we can't start going off on conspiracy theory tangents again. We should stick to the subject at hand, and consider actual and proposed laws, rules and regulations in the discussion so we are talking about known quantities instead of somebody's fantasy.
You remind me of the liberal judges in the recent SCOTUS decision on that Mexican illegal who was executed. They thought they should make a decision on what law may be passed in the future. The conservative side said their job is to rule on the law as it is, not as may be.
The bottom line is you want to ignore them and their words
You don't even want to go with their words. You just accuse them of deception when they say something that doesn't fit your conspiracy theory. What you're saying is that I should only trust your interpretation of their words. Not likely to happen.
The enemy of my enemy is not my friend.
No, but they can help you achieve desirable results. Imagine WWII if Stalin hadn't jumped in against the Nazis.
-————You’re right, we can’t start going off on conspiracy theory tangents again.-—————
See, this is why.
I prove the things I say. I gave you links. I gave you video.
I knew you’d act as if I didn’t give you links and video.
9/11 truthers give links and video, too, claim they prove their conspiracy theory.
9/11 truthers give links to videos which are propaganda produced by alex jones.
I gave you direct links to videos of Soros in his own words.
That you are equating direct interview footage with propaganda is not my problem.
Words that you've told me to either: a) accept at face value when they support your conspiracy theory, or b) ignore as deceptive lies when they don't support your conspiracy theory.
Nah.
I have said don’t listen to what they say for public consumption.
And yes, I have also said listen to what they say when they think nobody is looking.
When it comes to Obama, you’re perfectly capable of discerning and knowing the difference. You’ve demonstrated that capability on your own. He’s lying to the public for wide consumption, he’s not lying when he thinks he’s in a friendly crowd and won’t be heard much beyond that.
That Obama is the only radical you’re capable of applying this standard to, isn’t my problem either.
This is the problem with playing the game of “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”. Because you’ve convinced yourself that the radicals pushing net neutrality are on your side, you refuse to look at them as radicals, the same way you look at Obama as a radical.
You're asking me to listen to an interview. This isn't Obama in private with supporters taking about bitter people clinging to their guns and religion. These people said these things with the full knowledge it would become public.
This is the problem with playing the game of “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”.
If they can stop DMCA abuse, if they can stop telcos restricting the Internet, if they can stop patent trolls, if they can stop unconstitutional copyright expansion, then they are being useful to me on these issues and I will do nothing to stop them. I don't see any conservative groups doing those jobs.
Mega dittos.
