    THAT would be an example of inappropriate "staging" of the news.

    Meanwhile - this is a prime example of an exchange in which it is unlikely that views (on either side) are going to be changed. I believe I have the facts on my side and that the right is blowing a non-issue all out of proportion to support their "fake news" narrative. You believe I am ignoring an obvious example of "fake news" and "handwaving it away." History suggests no amount of discussion will change this dynamic, so I'll leave the last word to y'all.
    Considering how many times you say that, why do you bother having a discussion with us in the first place? Unless you win the debate, you just run away while accusing us of being unreasonable and can "have the last word"

    My suggestion, especially in regards to me, is to please ignore our (my) posts and don't bother getting into a debate with us (me) at all. It will save both of us a lot of wasted effort.

      His "last word" routine always leaves the impression that he he is unable to defend his arguments, or he doesn't consider them worth defending.
      Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
      But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
      Than a fool in the eyes of God

        I thought I would just save him a step and have the last word first.

        • Putin not only won the election, he won the investigation too.
          RUSSIA 2 - 0 USA

          So far, at least.

          Mueller dramatisations are available.

            The only dramatization here is yours, your majesty.
            The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
