Jen Griffin is usually pretty credible, while "The Post Millenial" has a tweet advertising MyPillows a couple posts down from the helicopter one...

So, if Mr. Pillow ran an advertisement on Ms. Griffin's page, then she loses credibility in your eyes? Makes a lot of sense, bro.
Which of the two reports do you believe is more likely true?


Given the way the federal government lies? That has nothing to do with a pillow advertisment.
The question was pretty clear. Why do you not answer?


Maybe it was a toughee for you. I don't trust the original source which is the State Department.
I don't want to put words in your mouth. Which report do you think is more likely true?

a. The United States Embassy in Baghdad was evacuated today, or
b. The United States Embassy in Baghdad was not evacuated today.


I don't know. But I do know that the accuracy or lack thereof has nothing to do with the placement of a pillow advertisment.


You have to be really incompetent to not know which is more likely to be true.
No, you don't have to be incompetent to not trust our State Department.


I didn't say anything about trusting the State Department. You have to be incompetent to not know which is more likely even if you didn't have any information from the State Department.
Ummm, no. But keep barking at the moon.


If you aren't capable of analyzing a variety of sources, even independent of any State Department statements, to determine the likelihood of something like the evacuation of a U.S. embassy, you just aren't very competent.
If you are not capable of analyzing a variety of sources, even independent memos allegedly from a national guard officer in 1973, to determine the truthfulness of a politically significant allegation, then you are just not very competent. Or the news media gets it wrong or worse.

If you are not capable of analyzing a variety of sources, even dossiers authored by an ostensibly disinterested foreign intelligence officer, to determine the truthfulness of a politically significant allegation, then you are just not very competent. Or the news media and our government gets it wrong or worse.


And?
I suspect Dan Rather saw what he wanted to see. It took a very short time for someone to debunk it.
I suspect you see what you want to see. And then name call when people don't agree with you.


I said you were incompetent if you could not tell whether it was more likely than not, on a particular day, that the US embassy in Iraq had, in fact, been evacuated. It is what it is. It isn't a matter of agreeing with me or not. A competent individual should have no problem determining whether it is more likely than not that the US embassy had been evacuated. The fact that you say you don't know shows you are incompetent.
Keep on barking, grumpy grandpa.


I hope you can learn how to navigate the modern world someday without making yourself look like an idiot. Good day.

Are those rioters or peaceful demonstrators???


I find it so hard to tell the difference between the two.

I mean I see all sorts of violence, things burning, etc. but for a whole summer that was just peaceful demonstration here in the US.

Indeed

One would have to be incompetent to accept anything this administration says without a healthy amount of skepticism and the willingness to fact check .

Sure, and the inability to fact check something like would make someone incompetent.
