    Watch the tape of his comments as I just have. I'm sure you'll agree you have taken them out of context once you listen to his full remarks.

    Sorry, I must be particularly slow this morning. I mistakenly jumped to the conclusion that: "BECAUSE DON FIRED COMEY", simply meant 'because Don fired Comey.

    I can see that I'll have to work harder if I want to keep up.

    Perhaps if you read the whole post and not misrepresent it by selectively referring to one part of it that would help.

    I see you are still carrying water for the lying liberal media.

    "After the first of these videos came out, Gruber apologized and conceded he "spoke inappropriately"."

    Learn critical thinking skills!

    Uh no. More like your insipid belief that the alphabet soups repeated factless assertion about a an investigation that began without any reason to be other tha DC angst and continues today to violate very nearly every constitutional safe guard there is in the hunt for anything Trump might possibly have done wrong at some point in his life

    No one is trying to silence anyone. The point of the post is getting to the truth. You have said in your post that you're thankful for Fox News because it gives conservatives a voice. That's true, it does but the fact has also been pointed out that Fox is opinion, not news. You rail against the "left leaning" MSM yet at least they are reporting the factual news. Fox is unabashedly biased. You obviously agree with their slant but wrongly condemn other outlets that don't match your view as authoritarian and not allowing free speech.

    the russian conspiracy? Lots of maybes and perhapses, but nothing substantial. And even if there was, there's no law against it.

    This post is the perfect example of right wing thinking.
    In a previous post you said you looked at the list of investors and said you had no idea who they were yet if you were truly interested you could have looked them up, but you didn't. You simply jumped the the conclusion that they are leftist and continue to say the same thing while already admitting you don't know what you're talking about.
    Why should I consider your opinion after that?

    See, this is where you guys go off the rails. Everyone agrees that despite a mountain of circumstantial evidence known to the public (who knows what Mueller knows that we don't) no definitive charges of illegal activities against Don have been filed.......yet.

    But to say the investigation was begun without reason........I just don't know how anyone can draw such a collusion.........I mean conclusion.

    I don't disagree that he spoke inappropriately. That doesn't change the fact that the post to which I referred took Gruber's comments out of context.

    Your stupid thread is about stopping free speech. Learn critical thinking skills. You and dems are moving toward fascism attempting to ban free speech.

    Stevo, the thread is about nothing of the kind. The sites that will be reviewed for accuracy will not be shut down if they are found to be inaccurate. I mean, this isn't like Don saying he thinks libel laws need to be expanded so he can quiet his critics.

    You use that critical thinking skills line a lot. I think you need help with straight up thinking skills.

    Dems are going to get SLAUGHTERED in upcoming elections for the reason that dems are believing EVERY LYING WORD of the lying liberal media.

    I like that actually. I also like the fact that I can point that fact out. Get over it.

    "...now I seen it all..." How are people supposed to take seriously someone being knowledgeable about global warming when they say 'now I seen it all'? You ask the OP what he would know about it: what do you know about it?

    No way to know the true partisan and nonpartisan nature of the fact checkers mind(s)

    Well, that is still under investigation which is constantly pointed out to the right but if you're assertion is "there is no law against it", that's a problem. You're OK with a campaign working with a hostile country to undermine our democracy (actually, HAS undermined our democracy).

    There are only 24 hours in a day and so many issues floating around

    The headline and opening comments of the OP, along with the identity of the journalists as major media vets leads me to supect the liberal bias

    If there were no conservative media the public would never have known what Gruber said

    But..........the opening comments were based on my anticipation that the right wing sites listed will be among those routinely flagged for inaccuracy because of their track record. Those comments have nothing to do with the mission of the site.

    What?
    A fact, is a fact. What does partisanship have to do with that?
