    Ends justify the means.

    When did Julian Assange become Russian? Or did Russia annex Australia when I slept last night?

    Still having a hard time wrapping my head around what the country really wants.

    "We need better relations with Russia."

    "Look at that! He (Trump) is friendly with Russia!"

    Well, I know what we want. A drunk lapdog like Yeltsin who said yes to everything we asked while his own country went into default. But Option C is not available.

    He doesn't dodge press conferences.

    All this to cover up the fact that you were clearly and factually proven wrong in a claim that is simply a part of the larger discussion. As I already said, this is why you have no credibility, Tony. No matter how clearly you have been proven wrong, you just can't admit to it and it makes you a joke.

    You really need to stop with these generalizations of "the left." You continue to show that you have no understanding at all of the people who disagree with you politically. You don't even try. This one may be even more ridiculous than usual for you, which is saying something. There is a hell of a lot of territory between being a little more environmentally friendly and going back to the Stone Age.

    And that last bit about socialism and communism? That is you following your new hero Donald Trump and trying to cover your ignorance with fear-mongering. I'm no socialist or communist, but I'm not terrified of them in the way that you are.

    He doesn't answer questions, though.
    But I agree on Hillary: She should be hammering back at this point.

    Great point. We were well on our way to a better relationship with Russia. Then Putin told the truth about Obama, and President Thin Skin and the left suddenly decided Russia was an enemy worse than ISIS. Funny how they never had that opinion during the Cold War.

    Most don't. A quite liberal staff.

    Tony, you really should stop carrying those goalposts around. It can't be good for your back.

    Hard to cozy up to Putin, though, isn't it? He's a crafty bastard.

    It is simple, tony. You made a false claim. When confronted with facts that prove your claim false, you shift the argument, lie and attack the people who busted you. The sad part is, you had an opportunity to show some integrity, to admit the small error while still standing by your larger argument, to at least try to have a rational discussion rather than pissing all over the political discourse again.

    I shouldn't be surprised when I hear your heroes in the GOP pulling the same shit. This Newt Gingrich bit was fun. Facts? Who needs facts? I have feelings!
