The 10 dumbest conservative ‘issues’ of 2014

Every one of these issues were pounded into conservatives heads on the daily by fox news

In your opinion only....and I might say imagination.

Please post the relevant references as to how "every one of these issues was pounded into Conservatives heads on a daily basis" because I say you are over exaggerating like every other claim made since 2009.

I love to watch fox entertainment news and I have seen this with my own two eye's. I just shake my head at such pettiness that goes on their. When watching this opinion/news channel, I never leave without thinking. Damn! Did they really just say that! It's amazing.

Try watching MSNBC - it is much more gooder. ;)

I watch them all. Then turn to fox just to check out the twist they put on a story. You just know it will be entertaining,and the complete opposite of any other news source out there. They are Sorta like a shock jock. Howard stern like. Very scary at times also.
 
You can always tell when a political party is in free fall. The propaganda machine turns to the petty and insignificant for the pure purposes of ridicule as opposed to legitimate debate.

While pointing at the petty, is is easy to forget the stupidity of your own party, like "tortured language", "stupid voters", Amnesty that isn't Amnesty but a useless exercise....

The only difference is the Democrats are in power so people don't see just how stupid they all are.
I wouldn't celebrate to soon. Your party has a lot of drama coming their way. They have both houses now. And this will prove that they will be incapable to govern. This is going to be good. New congress. Inside fighting. Here we go! Lol

Watch "Hannity: ‘Cowardly’ Boehner ‘Grubered Conservativ…" on YouTube

Hannity: ‘Cowardly’ Boehner ‘Grubered Conservativ…: http://youtu.be/eAVQOZ3aOCw

You have your own Gruber problems.
 
I don't think your right... I do believe Ebola was hyped, but it still had good reason to. If America did not freak about it and do measures to prevent it from coming to the U.S., it very easily could have. The CDC making this a national issue helped and solidified its prevention, if was treated like, "Oh some kid in Russia got lice" Ebola very well could have taken more lives here.

All that was done was to raise awareness and to quarantine people who may have come into contact with someone who had it. Those are reasonable things to do.

*Edit:

I must say, I did phrase it poorly. I don't think anyone was worried it would become an epidemic in the US. Not that anyone would get it and possibly die.

Oh, but YOU don't have a bias, not at all.

Thank you for your uniformed opinion.

Noooo. I watch msnbc news. And wonder why they ride his nut sack even when he is "rarely"[emoji2] wrong on some issues. There are times when he can do no wrong in their eyes.
I don't let news organizations form my opinion. I think for myself. No sheep here buddy. Sorry. I do think fox news is news on steroids compared to other news outlets

They were?

Then how come I've never heard of "UN 'Weapons Enforcement' truck spotted in Georgia", "ISIS at the southern border", "The Tan Suit" or "Muslim Prayer Curtains in the White House"?
 
It's interesting to see evidence of people home for Winter Break with visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads.
 
All stupid cultural issues and are perfectly illustrative of how people get more wrapped up in them than anything else. The longest threads ever on DP are almost all culture war crap.
 
Then use Fox News links if they are so prevalent. Using some goofy collection of multiple non-Fox News sources and then trying to assert that they are Fox News stories is both dishonest and lazy. I looked at the Fox News site and saw none of these stories. No doubt Fox News, as well as many other sources, carried stories about some of these topics when they were, in fact, news.

It goes back to exactly what I've been saying about the left... Lies and dishonestly are a core ideological component and a vital tool they use to discredit their political opponents. In this case, it's to achieve their goal of destroying the only news network that doesn't march in lock step with the progressive agenda.
 
I love this thread. It's chock full of fail. I can't remember the last time I saw so much fail in one place.

And there's the problem... You look to MSNBC for news, and as they themselves have said they are not a news network. Everything they present is with a liberal spin or bias, which means you are spouting the propaganda you get from them and are not the enlightened observer of "news" that you think you are.

... and before you go there, Fox News has hard news programming that is as centrist as you will find on any network, cable or otherwise.

Grim17: (FacePalm)That's is far from the problem like I said before I watch them all. [emoji6]

Did the hours of counter-Fox News sensationalism coverage not answer this for you yet? Ok, let me try to explain:

You didn't want to stop all flights from the region for a few reasons. A big reason is because it would discourage people from going their to stop the actual epidemic - which is the real answer to the problem. Also, this virus is not easily transmitted, and therefore was never going to be a threat for spread in the United States.

I don't think one person with any knowledge of epidemiology was concerned.

You are not intelligent enough to answer my question? Here it is again: Why is it stupid to want to stop Ebola infected individuals from coming to the US?

Please don't dodge my question again.

who said it was stupid to seek to prudently prevent ebola infected persons from entering the USA
and who thwarted such a reasonable effort, and what methods did they use?

I see, so it's NOT stupid to want to stop Ebola infected individuals from coming to the US, then. I'm glad we were able to get that point straight.
 
Even if all flights were stop al-Qaida would be bringing it across the Mexican border says fox news and some Gop members. Lol

Bull****! Fox has their conservative spin or bias.
 
I quoted this from the link.

Conservatives, Tea Party zealots and the Republican Party use a wealth of propaganda to energize the most idiotic base our country has ever seen.

Seems to me as a MOD/CON Dem we got our asses handed to us in the 2014 messaging war in far too many ways for me to relist.

Liberals/Progressives continue to underestimate the GOP establishment, which is now fully back in control of the GOP over the TEAs.

Note the way TED CRUZ screwed the GOP pooch and allowed 20-some Obama nominees to be approved.
GOP Senators are seething at him openly--DEMs are smiling at this Christmas gift .
 
you owe me 50 bucks...

you should pay us ALL 50 bucks for having us go to that idiot site and read that idiot article.
So I take it you came away with something after reading it. Your welcome. [emoji6]

with this kind of thinking, you be sure to lose even more elections.

it's not the "messaging" that sucks dude
its... your.. ****ing... message
conservatives suck, moderates suck,guns suck, white people suck, businesses suck, rich people suck, we're gonna force you to hand over more money, we're going to keep spending more money, we're going to force you to do whatever the **** we think you should do, we're going to force you to buy stuff, we're going pass laws without reading or understanding them... and we're going to spy on you and kill you will cool lil robots drones..even if you are american.

it's not really that libs overestimate the "GOP establishment" ( whatever the **** that is)... it's that you overestimate yourselves and you piss off the rest of the electorate with your incessant and idiot babbling.

the goddamn idiot republicans aren't much better... but they are... in fact.... better.
