Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40, 145]

Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

Gasp! No evidence, what was he thinking? As I said, it's politics -
And the mission was accomplished because you're correct the low information voters will gladly suck it up.

You might remember when "Reid said Romney paid no taxes for 10 years. It was no slip of the tongue. He repeated the claim on at least two more occasions, at one point saying that "the word is out" when in fact it was only Reid who put that "word" out.

Reid has produced no evidence to back up his claim other than attribution to a shadowy anonymous source".
Harry Reid says anonymous source told him Mitt Romney didn't pay taxes for 10 years | PolitiFact

I hope you were complaining back then.

I remember that being dishonest then as Rove is being dishonest now. Not a big fan of anonymous sources. If I had proof Romney didn't pay his taxes, I sure as hell wouldn't be anonymous about it lol.
 
Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

I don't get why this thread needs 30 pages. So what if Hillary suffered brain damage? It has no bearing on the testimony she's given on Benghazi. And besides, she wouldn't be the first person in politics to have brain damage. Reagan was showing strong signs of Alzheimer by his second term and that never bothered anyone. Much ado... :shrug:
 
Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

:agree: Welfare, food stamps, unemployment, social security, medicare and Medicaid are all government programs, paid for by taxes. If I could consider that charitable giving, I'm sending an awful lot more to charity than I thought! I'll have to remember to remind my CPA of that next time I see him - maybe he could file an amended return for me? I only included Salvation Army, Food Bank, and others like that when he asked about charitable donations. :sigh:

Greetings, bubba. :2wave: Howya doin?


Not to pick on you Polgara, but yours was a handy post as an example of what several where doing. My apology in advance for singling your post out.

This thread shows the classic example of conservative conspiracy nonsense. Make wild assed stupid claim that is clearly not true. Defend it until it is obvious, then change the subject in the thread(remember, it is Roves wild assed claim, not who donates more to charity). Wait a few months and all any one remembers is the accusation and how long the debate went on. Claim there has to be something to it for the debate to go on so long. It used to be you al just threw **** at the wall to see what stuck, now you throw **** at people and bitch they are surrounded by ****.

It has nothing to do with Benghazi and everything to do with 2016.

She's not running.

"I'm out of touch with the news." Do you ever have those moments when you suspect that you are probably happier that way? I do! :mrgreen:

Greetings, AJiveMan. :2wave:
Howdy there pardner. :2wave:

I do, I sort of miss cablevision and satvision, pawn stars, history, discover, and all that, OTA reception isn't everything, but we have the best of two worlds living near the state line of WI & IL, NBC5 Chicago daily homicides are about 5, and WTMJ4 Milwaukee only shows 1 a day or none. :roll:

Best part of OTA is that many off the beaten path stations play noir films, and with unbelievable clarity, in their entirety, which is a plus. And all the old primetime TV shows they played years ago.
 
Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

Quite possibly true, but do you think they are going to take that chance when after all the **** they have thrown against her and they have one candidate who beats her in one state(Paul, in the stoner capital of the US, go figure...).
 
Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

Liberals don't want to behave like Christians or help the poor. They want the government to do it while they're busy tokin' up.
I actually know people like that....except they call themselves conservatives.

Liberals don't contribute much under any circumstances, tax deductible or otherwise. But I'll wager they're in the majority collecting government handouts.
Yeah, what have the Liberals ever done for us?

Aqueducts.

Medicine.

Education.

All right, Liberals gave us aqueducts, medicine and education...but what have they ever done for us?

Wine.

Public order.

Irrigation.

Roads.

Fresh water system.

Healthcare.

All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh-water system, and public health, what have the Liberals ever done for us?
 
Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

Are you trying to claim that all the taxes that help the poor are paid by conservatives. ROTFL.


no ... but it is tax money ... not voluntary.
 
Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

did you weep when McCain was falsley accused of an affair that ran in the NYTs for weeks on the front page even though it was a lie? right before the election....

can you document this accusation?
 
Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

Here are the details on how a year later the Times had to settle with the woman they falsely accused of having an affair with McCain.

NYT Settles With Lobbyist Accused Of Affair With McCain - NationalJournal.com

You must have been living under a rock in 2008 to not know about this.

Umm no but it wasn't a huge story and most of it was because his own aides were nervous. Most of the story as I remember was the idea that this woman had undo influence on him making legislative decisions. It was a hot story for a minute and was more about the GOP primary than anything else. But you are right...there was outrage and that is why the story was further shown to be a half-assed story and the NYT got spanked for it.

What I remember from the GOP primary season is not much. To me this was a non-story.
 
Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

If I was an American voter I would seriously consider Clintons age when casting my vote. She will be 69 in 2016 and if she were to get elected and then reelected she would be in her late mid to late 70's towards the end of her term. Thats pretty old considering the effect the job seem's to have physically and mentally.

It was a huge story, and was discussed for weeks and months.

BENGHAZI....

VINCE FOSTER


SANDY BERGER

OBAMA

I guess we can take that to the bank, given that it's coming from someone who absolutely guaranteed us Mitt Romney was going to win in 2012.

You mean she would be a year younger than Reagan when he took office. Yeah, that's worrying!
 
Re: Karl Rove: Hillary may have brain damage [W:40]

Tax deductions sure help inspire the charitable giving don't they? Would you be as charitable if you couldn't deduct it from your taxes?

Good morning, Moot. :2wave:

I would like to think I would, because there are so many who, through no fault of their own, need a helping hand at times. My CPA is a stickler for taking every deduction allowed by law, and I trust him.

I grow a big garden, all organic, and although I can, freeze, and dehydrate what I need, most years there is an excess, and I think it is a sin to let it go to waste instead of sharing with others. A few years ago, I had a bumper crop of Italian parsley so I took it to the Food Bank. They were so happy to receive it, telling me "Thank you, thank you - few people ever think to bring us things like this and other herbs that makes food taste better when used in cooking." *I made a mental note to grow extra ever since then - :lol: * They determine the value, not me, so it's a win-win, IMO.

I am also a volunteer, once a week, that teaches inner-city moms how to preserve food for future use. Many schools have stopped teaching these things, sad to say, but I think it's a good idea to help people learn how to become as self sufficient as they can, since we all have to eat to stay alive. Who knows what the future holds for all of us? They seem to agree, and their enthusiasm is gratifying to me as a teacher! I am not paid to do this, BTW, nor do I list my time as a charitable deduction. It's not much, but I am doing what I can.

its not an accusation..its well known and well doucmented..

Its certainly a much higher risk.

I never guarenteed anything?.. but you can try to run that jive...
