(35,332 posts)about Putin and the election. Quote "I don't believe anything the government says". Later on I talked to two others
and neither of them believe any of the Putin stuff. You could have every congressman R and D tell them Putin interfered in the election and they won't believe it because Trump said he didn't. Fox had a poll this morning that said the Russian hacking didn't swing the election. So that sounds to me that Fox admitted the Russians were involved. One of the three this morning said CNN and MSNBC are just pissed they couldn't get Hillary elected. I got him good he called CNN the Clinton Communist Network. I said funny thing then the Russian communist backed Trump.

(99,710 posts)I said you are on the side of the Democrats if you oppose Putin. I assume the brave dissenters in Russia aren't Democrats.

(37,748 posts)And bumper-stickers satisfy undisciplined minds as well. Your absolute truth is not my absolute truth, ergo, it is not an absolute truth. And try not to confuse truth and editorial... it's a rookie mistake
Please, read more!!!!

(37,748 posts)Then please begin applying that literature (if indeed, your allegation is accurate), rather than bumper stickers and the simplistic moral absolutism of a Sunday televangelist.

(37,748 posts)"I am right!"
Another quote, relevant but hardly useful, as are yours. Graduate from the simplistic and the bumper sticker, and allow that human nature denies the absolute. The alternative is to be, by its very definition, irrational.
Regardless, your responses, maintaining both the depth and the breadth of a cartoon pirate on a cereal box is as tiresome as is listening to a four year argue against the existence of Pythagorean identities. Peace proceed, enjoy, and hopefully, learn... or continue wearing your televangelist outfit if it suits you better.
