FAA Administrators: Vote Democrat Or Lose Your Job

Do you not understand the difference between:

  • Everybody does it, so who gives a ****?
and

  • Everybody does it, so don't pretend your side has the moral high ground any more than the other side.
In case you don't understand the difference, one dismisses the possibility of things ever getting better, the other suggests that perhaps the appropriate focus is the problem rather than on who you can point the finger at.

Moral high ground???

I didn't see anything to imply that in Prof's post or in the article he cited.

In this case, it's definitely the Democrats who are doing the dirty deed, so why not focus on them in this thread? If you want to address anyone else doing similar things...perhaps you should start a thread about them, eh?

Anyway, the common tactic used by those who don't want to address an issue is to deflect to "everyone does it", not because they don't give a **** or are combating some "moral high ground". It's because they want to avoid talking about the issue in the context given. You know...trying to avoid getting their noses rubbed in the stuff.

It's the clear implication in every single one of these discussion.

Right, except that's clearly what I wasn't doing. As I've stated. Multiple times.

Care to show me how you arrived by this implication?
 
My point is that you're asking for proof of something which is so obvious that it should be indisputable.

If it's so obvious...to you, at least...you should have no problem supporting it.
 
It would be interesting to see what the actual quote was.
 
I think the perceived implication is only in that deflecting mind of yours.

Oh my god. A conservative arrived at this thought. This is great.

Really important: Consider this effect in your own thinking. Especially regarding the motivations of liberals. Suddenly the world will stop looking so black and white, us vs. them, etc.

And now...we get the trolls.

Go figure.
