monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

The functions of S of S are rather broader than an email system. That's kind of like saying, after looking back at your father's role and duties, that he was incompetent as a father if he once lost a letter.

And again, you'd have to be consistent. Are you prepared to label the activities and efforts of the Pentagon incompetent merely because the Joint Chiefs' email was hacked (which we now know it was in Aug 2015)?

Please link a better source than the one I linked.

Leaving aside the "academic pipsqueaks" (are they cooler in your eyes if they have big hairy chests, smoke ceegars and backhand their wives when needed?)

Not at all sure what you think the role of the press and the First Amendment ought to be, george.

OK. Here is the Obama/ riot discussion I promised.

Here is Obama, defending the message of Black Lives Matter

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=L2HQbScS43c

The source is a YouTube video from the associated press. Now this isn't a bad thing, yet. He has not done anything but state his opinion about why he thinks the message is real and what his interpretation of the BLM message. It is important to note many riots we talked about earlier spawn at Black Lives Matter protests, or at least the ones since 2014

OK. Here is a story from the Washington times about Obama and his comments about black lives matter....... During a police memorial.... For 5 white cops who died during a black lives matter protest....... Because they were white.

And here's the fox story

And the statements can also be found at CNN

Now this was at a memorial for 5 dead police officers. The officers were watching over a black lives matter protest. I think it's not only bad taste but horrible HORRIBLE timing.

If you would call this a plan to end the rioting it was an extremely ineffective tactic. There was a RIOT the very next month. Then there was ANOTHER riot the month after that. He spoke at the memorial in July 2016 you can check out the Wikipedia link I already gave you for the dates of the next two riots.

Now this is my opinion, the source is me. Obama gave 0 craps about the riots, because many of the riots since 2014 spawned from BLM protests. That's what he chose to talk about and defend at the dead police officers memorial.

Here's what Obama said about the victims of the riots.















I'll let you fill in this blank.

This is all pretty common knowledge. Blatham is just putting you through hoops he normally avoids himself, in order to maintain control of the dialogue. Ask him to research and offer rewl proofs (not the distilled opinions of others) of his assertions of fact.

Well the hoop got jumped. No problem, I don't mind it at all. Waiting for response.

No, that would be as if my father left me at the neighbors house, thousands and thousands of times, and pretended not to understand what the problem was. Than lie about how many times he left me in the wrong place. Than try to burn me. That's what Hillary did to the e-mails.

I know you guys don't like the e-mail thing and try to minimize how important it is, but you can't be THAT blind. Secretary of State, government documents, classified, wrong place, mishandled THOUSANDS of times, lied about. How is that even close to father losing a letter?

You equate yourself to emails?

Nope, I'm a towboater. Not secretary of state. I handle wires, not e-mails.

Because he's a black man?

I think there's no better nor more objective sourcing than the Trump campaign.

I don't care if he was a purple man, he gave the same amount of craps.












The space is still there for you.

Oh my bad Cicero, your late on this one. BLatham was comparing Hillary messing up her job thousands of times and lying about it, to my dad losing a letter. It's all about the sources man.

The email story is significant not much further than how it served as an effective political vehicle to discredit her candidacy. Because of the sources you attend to, you won't think so. And it serves your purpose to continue to isolate that incident and then using it to suggest that her broad range of work over the years as S of S is all to be somehow colored in the same manner. Even if your take on the first was accurate, that further leap is no sensible.

Sorry. We're not even in the same solar system here.

That would seem fairly compelling. Not sure if Trump has tweeted some new version of his opinions of reality yet.
