Pelosi Demands Private Jet For Travel

[red states rule]

by the way...are you ever going to answer those four simple yes or no questions I have been trying to get you to address?

I have several times.

 

[maineman]

I have several times.

that is a flat out lie.

 

[red states rule]

that is a flat out lie.

just like no Dem said the same about things about WMD's like Pres Bush?

Go back to the Dialy Kos where you feel right at home

I never said that some democrats did not believe that Saddam had WMD's.

man....you sure seem awfully frightened of four simple questions..... all you do is spin and avoid.

You follow the liberal debate tactics very well



1. Avoid factual arguments, they're usually against you anyway.

2. If for some obscure reason the facts actually fall your way (an extremely rare occurrence) then repeat them endlessly regardless of the reply of your conservative opponent. Remember time is limited, use this against him.

3. Get as personal and vicious as you can, maybe it will distract your opponent from his train of thought.

4. If you are unable to insult him with the usual insults such as 'racist', 'homophobe', or 'bigot', then insult someone else on his side (someone related to the subject under discussion is preferable but not required).

5. When you're losing, and you usually will be, abruptly change the subject. Again the object of this is to distract and deflect attention from your opponent's argument.

6. Talk loudly and rapidly, don't allow your opponent to get a word in. Remember the more time you consume, the less time your opponent will have.

7. Use hyperbole as an example of your opponent's argument and suggest that that is what they are suggesting.

8. Purposely misunderstand what is being said by your opponent and distort it into something you can use.

9. Make up 'facts' most people don't check them and anyway, you'll be long gone by the time the truth is known, and so will the audience.

10. Expect perfection. Focus on the slightest flaw in your opponent's argument, any kind of mistake, grammatical, spelling, contextual, anything no matter how slight is sufficient to deflect attention away from how vacuous your arguments are.

11. Act insulted. Take umbrage at the slightest contradiction and act as if it is a personal insult. This will make your personal attack seem warranted and just.

12. Mug the camera or audience while your opponent is speaking, make faces, sneering is good, head-shaking better, and looking toward the ceiling is best [notice the avoidance of the word Heaven, Liberals avoid words of a religious nature WM]. Let the audience know you disagree with your opponent (even if you’ve no idea what he’s saying)

13. Use condescending laughter as much as you can. It serves two purposes, first, it dismisses your opponent as being unworthy of your respect and second, it shows your contempt for his arguments. This is a very powerful tool and can really annoy your opponent and disrupt his train of thought.

14. You’re an arrogant Liberal; demonstrate your obvious intellectual superiority by acting in a condescending manner.

15. Forget how many of the wealthiest in this nation are Liberals, always beat the drum of “Rich Republicans” and “working class Democrats.”

16. Finally, always remember style trumps substance. Know it, Live it.

I merely asked you four simple questions as a means of clarifying your previously asserted positions. I am not following ANY of those topics. I am being patient and staying on topic.... four questions.... why can't you bring yourself to answer them? What ARE you so afraid of?

Are you saying that the House's concierge is incapable of covering both Pelosi and his ass by bullshitting? Maybe Pelosi offered him a bribe, maybe she is willing to share the identity of her hair colorist or plastic surgeon.

I am suggesting that a non-partisan senior staffer, who was first installed as the sergeant at arms when Newt was speaker, has no need to bullshit anyone. And perhaps if you had proof of his lies, you would be forthcoming with them, instead of just tasteless ad hominem attacks.

and to call the House Sergeant-at-Arms the "concierge" is yet another bit of partisan idiocy.

but I have come to expect that sort of juvenile shit from many of the righties on this site.

What do you think the Sergeant At Arms does? Does he not act as a concierge? What makes you think he is so very holy and above suspicion? You clown on the left suspect the President of the United States of being a liar.

Whatever..... the fact is that the aircraft she is being offered is not only among the finest flying and offers an incredibly special way to travel that any normal person would jump at the chance to experience, it will fly nonstop on most occasions and would only need a very quick and secure stop at an Air Force base if weather was a problem. I doubt very seriously that this "Sergeant At Arms" is pushig for a 757 for "bright eyes", that is standard elitist shit from the likes of her.

It's easy to figger out. In maine's world, if you agree with his perception of the universe, you're beyond reproach. If not, you're a liar and a cheat.

he is above suspicion because he is non-partisan and has given me no reason to suspect him. Our president, on the other hand, told us that there was NO DOUBT that Saddam had WMD's. I have every right to suspect him. YOU seem to suspect the sergeant at arms for no reason other than his statement made it clear that your little witch hunt was without basis.

 

[glockmail]

What party is he registered with?

 

[maineman]

What party is he registered with?

I have no idea....I DO know that he was first appointed Sergeant at Arms by Newt Gingrich and has held the position non stop for all twelve years the republicans were in power. You tell ME what party he's registered with... and I will tell you that, if he IS a democrat, it is pretty well conclusive evidence of his nonpartisan nature if republicans kept him on for a dozen years.

 

[red states rule]

First, they claim that the request came from the House Sergeant at Arms and not Pelosi. There is nothing unusual about such formality. They then go on to state that the request was only due to a need for an airplane which wouldn’t require refueling to make the coast to coast flight.

The Department of Defense offered Speaker Pelosi the same aircraft as the one used by Hastert, but she found it was not big enough for staff, supporters, other members, and her ego

why would a guy with such longstanding ties to Newt and Hastert LIE about it?

 

[red states rule]

Like with Clinton, the story keeps changing and shifting and who knows what they will say next time

It looks like you've got your bases covered with excuses.
