    Carmen is supposed to be the Republican, right?

    Boy, I’d like to see Stantis cite an example of Republicans proposing ANYTHING for the common good.

    The invasion of Afghanistan, the invasion of Iraq, tax cuts for the rich and for patriotic multinational corporations and The Wall.

    Banning abortion. Privatize public education.

    The violent attempt to overthrow the government of the United States.

    .

    Did I miss something, Stantis?

    Just as soon as you agree with me on what good is and the means to achieve it, until then, you are the problem.

    The Rs idea of “working together” is the Hastert Rule.

    The Hastert Rule definition is That the Speaker will not schedule a floor vote on any bill that does not have majority support within their Party-even if the majority of the members of the House would vote to pass it.

    Caught yesterday’s DMZ. Stanti got in the front seat. Now I know why he’s usually the interviewer on this podcast. First, he creates a strawman about U.S. woman’s groups not coming out against Hamas’ horrid treatment of Israeli women. ………………..What?: It was his means to change the debate with Ted Rall, who was dismantling him. Stanti then gives us his “I hate war” platitude. Because the rest of the world is just hungry for it. He later notes that he now despises Iran more than ever, as it goes back to their involvement in Afghanistan. By then Ted could only embarrassingly note they weren’t. Here’s my summation of the 2: Stanti has no clue about argument tactics or the subject matter. Thus, he regularly throws out false equivalencies, not even understanding what he is doing. Ted sees the world pretty much accurately and consciously manipulates truth to achieve his goal. The dynamic duo.
