Anyone who had hope that the GOP would come to their senses re: Trump instead of going all in on the crazy. -- nm - znufrii Jan 22, 06:15 6
- ... GOP and RNC are 2 entirely different things. - Strongbad Jan 22, 06:20 5
  - I don't see the distinction you're trying to make, and your attempt at illustrating it makes no sense. -- nm - znufrii Jan 22, 06:25 4
    - OK. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 22, 06:34
    - and taking your argument at face value, no, the leadership apparatus of the party is not "entirely different" from the party as a whole. -- nm - znufrii Jan 22, 06:28

Anyone who believe in freedom of the press -- nm - ty97 Jan 22, 05:46 17

    - ? FOX and MSNBC get punished all the time. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 22, 06:04 1
      - okey doke, if folks don't see a difference here, I'll just move along. -- nm - ty97 Jan 22, 06:05
    - The RNC is not a part of the government. It's a private organization and can do as it wishes. - iSpam Jan 22, 05:55 11

      - Or more on point, does it trouble you that the DNC would never allow Fox News to host a debate? Or the RNC and MSNBC? -- nm - spamlet Jan 22, 05:59 4

        That wasn't my point. I included both the DNC and the RNC as examples. - spamlet Jan 22, 06:23 2

        When given the choice between the guy typing the words, and the guy interpreting the words, I'm going to take the word of the guy typing with intent. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 22, 06:29
