“Some newspapers have a hands-off policy on favored politicians. But it’s generally very small newspapers or local TV stations.”

Trump stinks. Stay upwind my friends.
It's enough to make Mrs. Butterworth blush….
It turns out our pious and virtuous vice president has had a John on his security detail.
As much as I like heaping abuse on this administration, I don't see how that has anything to do with VP "Mother doesn't want me to dine with other women" Pence.
No, it doesn't. And frankly, I don't see what this agent does on his own time with a consenting adult to be the government's business. The Curmy Voyageur alliance has spoken!
55 to 40 to limit debate
I think that's a typo, 55-45 (McConnell switched to "No" to be able to ask for reconsideration). Four Dems– Manchin, Donnelly, Heitkamp, Bennett– voted to limit debate. (per @NPR)
And here we go: http://www.denverpost.com/2017/04/06/senate-nuclear-option-neil-gorsuch-supreme-court-nomination/
Today is a great day for America!
Trump resigned?
Right winger thinks Dem Russian fetish is laughable.
Per Noam Chomsky:
During a recent interview with Democracy Now, Noam Chomsky demonstrated what everyone with a clear head and capacity for critical thought should already know. Just because you have a strong dislike for Donald Trump, doesn’t mean you latch on like a lunatic to every nonsensical Russia conspiracy theory because you’re still crying about Hillary’s loss.
As Noam Chomsky accurately states:
St. Ronnie is doing a veritable tilt-a-whirl hearing all the Republican apologists for collusion with Ruskies to overthrow American democratically elected government.
"Deranged" and "lunatic" are your words. Chomsky is repeating Donald Trump's "Johnny does it too" argument, while defending Putin. Chomsky's opinions on making nice with Russia are in the context of furthering peace and not ramping up tensions with a major nuclear power. Naturally, you left that context out.
From CNN: Bill Reilly: Putin's a killer. Trump: Got a lot of killers, lot of killers. You think our country's so innocent?"
I fail to see how this morally relativistic argument, by either Donald Trump or Norm Chomsky, excuses either Russian's many murders or those of the United States.
Pretty sure Norm Chomsky had more to say. Yup, he did:
On Trump's first 100 days:
And speaking of other countries mocking the US, Chomsky said that the privatized US health system is an "international scandal".
Pretty sure Norm Chomsky would never in a century endorse any candidate or political principle that you would endorse. I'm not even sure that you're a fan of democracy. Perhaps you prefer dictatorships.
Wonder why you so selectively quote Norm Chomsky? What's next, a seance with Saul Alinsky or Hannah Arendt, in which these leftist luminaries somehow parrot your talking points?
That thought crossed my mind, too. What ever happened to all the red-baiting Republicans out there. I guess they'll have to stop accusing Dems of being communists now, right Moddy? AC? PP?
No, Democrats have an affinity for central planning and doing away with private property. Dems moto, "better red the dead".
Private property rights? Are you familiar with eminent domain? The Keystone Pipeline? In my best KornJolio voice, "Pear, let me help you"
Trump: Without eminent domain, Keystone pipeline 'wouldn't go 10 feet'
Trump signs executive actions to advance Keystone, Dakota Access pipelines
PS: That requirement for American steel so we can #MAGA? It's no more applicable to Keystone than it is Trump's hotels. Even Ivanaka is playing you like a fiddle.
Trump: O'Reilly 'a good person' who shouldn't have settled sexual harassment claims (says the man who just settled a fraud lawsuit for $25 million).
Look at these pretty white people fruitsplainin' religion to the heathen masses:
Evangelical Leader Says Those Who Oppose Trump Could Be “Punished” with Gay Child
PS: don't forget...send M.O.N.E.Y.
So the US just bombed Syrian bases and airfields – without congressional approval.
Remember this?

So
@POTUS cares enough about the Syrian people to launch 50 Tomahawks but not enough to let the victims of Assad find refuge & freedom here.Perhaps Cheetolini forgot the part where Obama did go to Congress for authority…
Obama Seeks Approval by Congress for Strike in Syria
Trump bombed just one airfield and gave short warning that it was coming. Russians tried couple years ago; when they first got into Syria; sending cruise missiles at rebel-held positions from Russian vessels in the Caspian Sea. Half of them never arrived and couple landed without exploding in Iran. Hope the Russians liked the pinpoint accuracy of ours. Pentagon wastes a lot of money, but most systems we have do work well (F-35 fighter plane an exception).
$88.5 million for the Tomahawks…
Raytheon stock is up…
