Funny that you defend WaPo and others. Meanwhile there's little disagreement that the mainstream press was in the tank for the Dems for years - even members of the press admit it - and you, and non-Democrat (cough, cough) and you get all worked up about so - called fake news. Maybe you're concerned about the lefty media losing their monopoly on fake news?

You're the one who started a thread on it, not me. Moreover, the focus of the thread was characterizing real news inconvenient for Trump as fake news.

You and TJ, sittin' in a tree..........

How does it feel to side with a guy who has Che Guevara in his profile pic, proudly proclaims he's a "Hardcore Commie" and thinks the notion that life in the USSR sucked was a big lie?

Then you missed the purpose of that thread. Not surprising.

So life is in the extremes, not in the middle?

Context is the key.

The point of the thread was and remains abundantly clear - characterizing real news that is unfavorable to Trump as fake news. Having bought into Limbaugh's shtick that the Post and Times are the predominate source of fake news (as opposed to the enlightened purity of talk radio, Breitbart and InfoWars), you gladly carried that message to this board to cover for Trump and Flynn's use and proliferation of fake news - typical right wing projection.

If you want to continue such projection, you could start a thread saying that Nazis were liberals and that criticism of blatant racism by the right is itself racist. You'd then have all the bases covered.

Swing and a miss. Strike two!

Although I have a great deal of respect for Che, that is not him in my avatar. That is Fidel Castro.

Well as I said my only exposure to Russian immigrants to the US is my wife's hairdresser. I believe she came over about 12-15 years ago as one of those Mail order brides. Perhaps because she had the mistaken impression that everybody in America is rich. So now she finds herself with a couple of school aged kids and an Alabama redneck husband and having to work as a hair dresser to make ends meet while bubba is out Deer Hunting with his buddies in his $53,000 4X4 pickup truck that he is $30,000 upside down on.

So I ask you, how much worse off could it have been back in mother Russia?
