Maher slams the way liberals defend Muslim atrocities “in the name of multiculturalism”:

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/09/27/in-six-minutes-an-atheist-tears-apart-the-way-liberals-defend-muslim-atrocities-in-the-name-of-multiculturalism/ …

one day we hate this big-beaked prick and the next he has something worthwhile to say...oh well, billy maher.

We hear a lot about the Republican ‘War on Women.’ It’s not cool Rush Limbaugh called somebody a ****. Okay. But Saudi women can’t vote, or drive, or hold a job, or leave the house without a man. Overwhelming majorities in every Muslim country say a wife is always obliged to obey her husband. That all seems like a bigger issue than evangelical Christian bakeries refusing to make gay wedding cakes.

He's not wrong on that. Not the least of which women over here also have the right to collectively tell Rush (or whomever) to fuk right off if they choose as well.

I don't believe I've ever heard a "liberal," or anybody else, defend Muslim atrocities. But once you've swallowed that lie, the rest is easy.

I don't believe that sentiment is expressed at all in the quote that I'm commenting on. So try swallowing that.

You diminish or negate the vile acts by use of moral relativism, which is simply defending by another tact.

Geez Cannuck, for someone with all the money he needs, but no time to enjoy it, you sure do have a lot of free time to follow me around, lolz.

Oh c'mon now!

If that is a verbatim statement of what was actually said, then the Twitter ranters have applied a very liberal interpretation of the context of that statement.

I have never understood why anybody cares what twitter ranters or twits think. I think its scary that so much public policy is being based upon a social media site with dubious value.

I believe it's called 'tweeting'.....how seriously can you take someone who 'tweets'?

Reporters today are lazy. Look at the number of stories got wrong because they got the source from twitter. How many times have they killed Gordon Lightfoot? It's like Abe Vagoda and David Letterman except the latter is a comedy show and his death is a running gag.

It's partially laziness but it's also the speed with which it gets out. But speed sure doesn't equal quality.

If it's out on twitter, why does it need to be out on the 6 o'clock news? They claim to be responsible journalists. If it is just going to be the twitter reports, why bother hiring journalism majors?

Oh absolutely, I don't argue that at all. By the time the news comes on they should have had more than enough time to thoroughly investigate the information.

or in my case, a tweet based on a news report. ;-)



mind you, there will always be some people that have a closed arrogant mind on a media type or style to begin with and there isn't thing one anyone can do to open or change their mind. self-righteousness over rides the willingness to learn, to become aware.

contempt prior to investigation as they say.

all brands and flavors of information can be useful as well as clutter. none is perfect so vary your diet to avoid news and information scurvy. :lol:

You can tell the scurvy bastards by their tooth decay.

Fair enough, but you know as well as I do, it is often the other way around.

And you know (I hope) that I don't think that way. The facts are the things that are there throughout all the different media establishments.

I get the sentiment of our twittering friend, I know where it comes from. But at the same time, it's reactionary and, in the end, not even really based on something worth getting that bent out of shape over. (I'm referring to the context of the statement from CAIR here of course, not the incident in Oklahoma)

Holly crap MegaHurtz twin.

Love the last name, lolz

 

[gerryh]

He posts, right after two people do a little digging of their own, instead of being an example of the pic he posts.

Give your head a shake cliffy.

For cliffy to believe it, it has to be told him by a shaman, in a sweat lodge. Then it is all true.

oh there's plenty of and it evens extends in the reverse to msnbc and fox.

nope and that's why I used 'some people' instead of a forumish 'you' (that some have to backtrack on later and say, oh, I never meant YOU though :lol: ).

those types of sentiments go in a 'quit picking on so and so thread' of course...drive-bys and nitpicks...I'll extend some instances reactionary more than others, especially when it involves a beheading, then the culprit is a man, then a gentleman. ;-)

uh oh: Oklahoma Beheader Linked to Al Qaeda Leader Awlaki, Boston Bomber's Mosque

My basic philosophy is trust no one. It's kept me alive.

Just clarifying, lol.

See now I read that statement and, if were I to choose something to get up in arms about, it would be about using the horrific murder of two women to backpack their program message on. To me, a clear and firm condemnation of the behaviour is simply a clear and firm condemnation and nothing more. No 'we're really all about this, this is what we're about and that guy (or gentleman if you prefer) was inhumane and barbaric and that's not what we're all about at all'. Again that's if I were to choose.

Being reactionary is understandable, whenever you have a horrific situation like this one. Human beings are emotional creatures, we feel the horror of what's happened and we react to it, that's completely natural and normal. Having said that though, we have to treat it as what it is, a reaction, which we do by analyzing what's being reacted to.....
