Perhaps BoomerD or PJ will reply to this:

10 seconds with Google news. Looks like over 2000 news articles. Hmmm...."hardly reported", riiiiiiight.

Even if half are not exactly about him, that is still 1000 articles. Yet another PJ thread troll.


To what part of that would you like me to reply?

Sarah Palin is a nut-case. While I disagree with Kucinich even going to Syria, IMO, it's not his job...and some of what he has said, I think is outrageous.
HOWEVER, IMO, Caribou Barbie is still a far greater threat to MY country.

Personally, I don't give two shits about what happens in Syria, Libya, Egypt, or any of the other third-world shitholes that make up the middle east. If the dictators of those countries want to commit genocide on their citizens, it's not OUR problem.
Is it ugly and distasteful? Hell yes.
Is it our job to remove the dictator? Fuck no.

That is a false perception.

The vast majority of those stories have nothing to do with this issue. They mostly deal with Syria as a whole or the fact that he was going to Syria.

And as I stated before, go to the NY Times and find me one article about this issue. Good luck.

New revelation: the NY Times is now officially the entirety of the MSM. Until the next time, when the NY Times has covered the topic issue, then it will be MSN, CNN or whoever didn't cover it.

PJ has spoken.

Progressives don't "love dictatorships." You couldn't prove that if your life depended on it; Dennis Kucinish, who is one progressive, not withstanding. Your Occam's razor is meaningless. There isn't sufficient, non-anecdotal empirical proof of it; and there is plenty of anecdotal proof to the contrary. What you are saying is too nonsensical to merit any further response than that. I could make outlandish, idiotic remarks about republicans to parrellel your logic, but I'm not going to stoop to this level. We could have a serious discussion about what is really going on with progressives here, but apparently not with you.


- wolf
I'm open to whatever explanation you wish to offer. However, note that "a contradiction in progressive logic" is not an explanation, it's an anti-explanation, admitting the progressives' behavior while claiming it is counter to progressives' actual logic. I could accept anti-Americanism as the driving motivation, I suppose, except that progressives also often defend dictators when America and/or NATO proposes to replace them with democracy. Libya of course is an exception for a lot of progressives - although I doubt anyone here really believes any progressives would support our actions in Libya had they occurred under Bush. Perhaps anti-Americanism combined with anti-conservative feelings explains it. However, you can't possibly argue that progressives don't favor concentration of ever-greater power in ever-fewer hands; that certainly trends toward dictatorship.

You don't understand how the right wing culture of victimhood works. The source is irrelevant. The number of times they are proven wrong is irrelevant. The only thing that is important is that they are being horribly abused by some nebulous, malicious being that conservatism is being unfairly picked on by. If it's not the NYT, it would be someone else.

The important part is that conservatism is being victimized, and that's it.

Since it's a known and undisputed fact that Liberalism is based on (and relies on) people believing they are victims, I guess we can defer to you on how it works.

Still waiting on the OP to show how his claim that this hasn't been covered isn't a total lie. We have shown links to THOUSANDS of news articles, and the OP still has no answer.

I wonder why? And he still claims no coverage! P&N really needs some kind of rule where you have to present real evidence to back up claims

Come on PJ, man up and show evidence that you are right, or admit you are wrong. Of course, being a partisan tool, you will do neither and just go on making untrue posts.

Sure it is.

All I see on here is right wing person after right wing person talking about how they are continuously conspired against by the evil librul media, evil librul scientists, evil librul teachers and professors, the evil librul ABA, etc... etc... etc.

All this coming from the supposed culture of self reliance, hahaha. The poor self reliant supermen are just SO PICKED ON.

YAPJL (Yet another PJ lie)

So you said
And where is the media?
and it is hardly reported

So you admit you intentionally lied when you posted? Because I don't see a claim by you in the OP that either the MSM is 100% comprised of the NYT, or any claim that the NYT had to cover it.

So 2000+ articles don't count? I guess every newspaper posting the article on the top of the front page, and every website in the world put it on their "front page" would be your requirement? LOL

Let me guess, you are Jon Kyle right? You know, the one that knowingly lied on the Senate floor about abortion? And then claimed it wasn't intended to be factual? Great role model for you, BTW.

OK guys, after every PJ post, we need to add "not intended to be a factual statement". That way, he can lie about whatever he wants.

Those 2000+ articles are NOT about what he said in the interview. Google "dennis kucinich libya" and there are 3000 articles. "dennis kucinich israel" has 2752 articles.

Google the term yourself and start looking at what the articles actually say.

And my exact statement was "A sitting congressman goes to Syria and says "the government is listening to the people" and it is hardly reported. "
And as I proved already via links to specific national news sites it was hardly reported.
If you had gone to msnbc, cnn, the NY Times or the Washington Post you would not have anything about what Kucinich said in that interview.

Except for of course the washington post link that I responded to your OP with way back when.

All aboard the fail whale!

Liberals love dictators. They fantasies about obama "dictator for life". Why do you think they like cuba so much?? Even the holywood idiots support cuba and castro. So if they start jizzing their pants over another dictator it's no surprise.

“He is lending legitimacy to a regime that has lost legitimacy,” Safi said. “This is for internal consumption. For many Syrians, if a congressman comes to see Assad, they think that he represents the government. … Living under a dictatorship, they think that anyone who meets with the president from congress is representative of the U.S. position on Syria.”

This is the most intelligent thing you have posted, ever.

There, added your standard disclaimer so we all know it's not true.

Again, it was reported. And reported. And reported on again. Do you have some sort of "special pj" definition of reporting that only you know and believe, LOL?

So moving the goalposts doesn't hurt your back? I mean really, now having to have it on the front page of the NYT for it to be (in your mind) repoted correctly?

Seriously...stop intentionally lying on your posts, it will make this whole forum better, especially since your troll flood this board with multiple BS posts every day.

Everyone can see you intentionally and deliberately lied. The only alternative is that your were too ignorant to spend 10sec on google looking for articles. Take your pick.
