which leads to my re-asking the question: Do you post the same 'they're all the same' comments on Republican sites?

It seems that if both parties are working towards the same non-beneficial goals, Republican voters should have equal access to the information you're so anxious to share.

The non-salon links indicate that the civilian deaths didn't happen, msanthrope Jun 2012 #11

Greenwald, by his paycheck, is an anti-union asshole. Robb Jun 2012 #61

That yeast, some dangerous stuff, swells up and all that. Good thing 2on2u Jun 2012 #6

Yup, they have a tendency to trust authority and "official" sources quinnox Jun 2012 #7

It's just as easy Summer Hathaway Jun 2012 #20

Is this your belief about "them" or is this what "some people" say? EFerrari Jun 2012 #33

Exactly my point Summer Hathaway Jun 2012 #53

So, on what basis are you constructing this equivalency? EFerrari Jun 2012 #63

My point being Summer Hathaway Jun 2012 #70

This is why I think Republican/Democrat is largely irrelevant anymore. Egalitarian Thug Jun 2012 #8

Have you posted this sentiment Summer Hathaway Jun 2012 #23

I don't post at republican websites, why would I want to subject myself to that trial? Egalitarian Thug Jun 2012 #28

Huh? Summer Hathaway Jun 2012 #54

Yep, the 1% gets your blessing nolabels Jun 2012 #57

So pointing out that someone Summer Hathaway Jun 2012 #71

You're right, I worded it badly. The parties, not their membership are irrelevant. Egalitarian Thug Jun 2012 #64

Thanks for the clarification Summer Hathaway Jun 2012 #72

We have to keep killing Innocent civilians to stop the terrorists from killing innocent civilians. OffWithTheirHeads Jun 2012 #9

Funny--Afghanistan has yet to provide evidence these deaths occurred. Greenwald was punked. msanthrope Jun 2012 #10

You are conflating two different stories. Greenwald clearly cites CNN that the family was killed Luminous Animal Jun 2012 #13

No--it's the same story...you note that I used Greenwald's own link. msanthrope Jun 2012 #16

Sigh. There are 3 links. The 1st 2 relate to one incident the 3rd to the another incident. Luminous Animal Jun 2012 #17

And my second link is about the first incident....I make no reference to the Pakistani one. msanthrope Jun 2012 #19

It was you who stated this: "This was not an American-led 'drone strike' as Mr. Greenwald indicates" Luminous Animal Jun 2012 #21

Are you saying that the first story, and the first bolded point do not match up? msanthrope Jun 2012 #27

What are you talking about? Luminous Animal Jun 2012 #30

Since you can decipher Greenwald, show me where the civilian deaths were confirmed? msanthrope Jun 2012 #34

Hahaha!!! Luminous Animal Jun 2012 #39

I would have thought the subject matter of the thread precluded laughter. nt msanthrope Jun 2012 #46

So here's an idea. Let's see if you can do this: Bonobo Jun 2012 #14

No. msanthrope Jun 2012 #18

Good post... SidDithers Jun 2012 #22

Thank you...that particluar talk of Mr. G ought to be quote mined each and msanthrope Jun 2012 #29

It should. Thanks for posting it. Luminous Animal Jun 2012 #31

You support his call for voting Third Party? Who are you voting for in 2012? nt msanthrope Jun 2012 #35

I support a robust political system that can engage its citizens with depth and breadth. Luminous Animal Jun 2012 #40

Well, I think you've answered. Thank you . nt msanthrope Jun 2012 #41

There are documented civilian deaths from drones since the Bush years. sabrina 1 Jun 2012 #42

Here is Tom Dispatch during the Bush years... Luminous Animal Jun 2012 #44

It's ludicrous and disingenuous for anyone who has been half awake since this drone program began sabrina 1 Jun 2012 #47

I remember those reports very well. sabrina 1 Jun 2012 #50

"Those brown people?" I think you should edit, or make clear what you meant. nt msanthrope Jun 2012 #45

Excuse me?? They are not white people, are they? sabrina 1 Jun 2012 #49
