You won't believe this exchange with Brian Williams
« on: April 07, 2017, 02:10:35 pm »
Every now and then, when something happens, I like to visit opposition sites to see what they are saying about the issue.

So, post missile strike, I ventured over to MSNBC to see how they were portraying this whole thing. Check out this vid:

The part I find most unbelievable is when Williams feigns concern for the poor sailors who had to breathe a sigh of relief after these missiles were launched without blowing themselves up.

Yes, seriously. Trump nearly killed those sailors by ordering those missiles launched.

3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

Trump could hand out bars of gold to Syrian refugees and the radical Left would complain they are too heavy.

The old saying about the Royal Navy was that its only traditions were "rum, sodomy, and the lash."  Does that maybe clarify the joke?

Meh. I'm ex-infantry in the Army, and I appreciate the cush-life jokes for the air force and navy, but calling them sodomites is a bridge to far. We're all part of the same armed forces.

Raytheon should sue him for implying they have faulty products.
