    Some folks will just bandwagon the hits, thinking they are with the majority. I'm not big on piling on. At least Rev doesn't have an anal fixation on everyone he doesn't care for; nor does he go off on drunken tirades like some seem to do a tad too often.

    He sees things a bit differently, more 'conservatively' than many here. One doesn't have to agree with him, even like him, but he doesn't deserve being trashed.

    Ivanka Trump is in white House UNOFFICIALLY and Nepotisticaly helping shape national policies.

    i CLEARLY said BOTH are wrong. how is that justifying bad behavior?
    It's not .
    seems to me you and others are READING into my words views that make it easy for you spit out bs kickbacks at me.
    You've made me a "straw man".
    if you just read what i say, and not what you THINK i really mean, I suspect you'll find we agree more than you think.

    You are incorrect. I did NOT defend Trump saying WHAT he said. I defended him defending himself, within context of who, what, when why and where. THAT matters.

    Ivanka Trump is in the WH because Daddy's got the coolest house in the US. The rest is conjecture. I live in the same house as MY daughter. It's not like it's unheard of. Like YOU said, she is there UNOFFICIALLY and as I posted ago she has NO OFFICIAL TITLE/JOB.

    She's only a "valid target" because her daddy is Donald Trump. That's as bullshit a reason as there is.

    I didn't miss any point. You did. Your comparison is crap. There is no comparison. The difference here is my argument isn't because it's "Trump's daughter" -- it could be anybody's in the same situation and I'd say the same thing -- your argument however IS just because she's Trump's daughter,

    "...Ivanka Trump is taking on a more formal White House role — with a title but not a paycheck — a move intended to quell ethics concerns raised about her status in her father's administration.
    In a statement, the White House noted that the president's elder daughter already had an "unprecedented role" in the administration different from that of previous presidential children.
    She now will take the title of special advisor to the president, and therefore assume the same responsibility to abide by ethics standards that other federal employees have, the statement said. The decision demonstrates the administration's "commitment to ethics, transparency and compliance," the administration said.
    Although Ivanka Trump already had a West Wing officeas does her husband, senior advisor Jared Kushner — she now will have "increased opportunities to lead initiatives driving real policy benefits for the American public that would not have been available to her previously," a White House spokesman said.
    The announcement came on a day when President Trump sought to promote his administration's commitment to empowering women. He delivered remarks at an East Room event that included other top women in his Cabinet, including U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and Small Business Administration head Linda McMahon.
    Ivanka Trump held a roundtable with female business owners earlier, Press Secretary Sean Spicer said.

    Ummm ... yeah ... REALLY dig that "job title" "Special Adviser to the President". That'd called "Daddy's little princess" around here

    You are being purposefully obtuse. I suppose technically, when she does something in the role of "Special Adviser to Daddy", then it would be appropriate to criticize whatever policy that is. No more bubble gum in the WH, peasants

    None of which lends a simple picture of her with her child to leftwingnut vitriol. There is NO excuse for Bee's attack. Or does the baby have and "official WH position" as well? "First Grandbaby"?

    You keep trying to force a square peg into a round hole. Your argument is fundamentally flawed at the foundation; therefore, has no chance of standing.

    You accuse people of "Trump is right no matter what syndrome" in their responses, but YOUR statements are based solely on "Trump is wrong". And whether or not they'll post it, I'm sure more than a couple sets of eyes are rolling at you lumping me into the "Trump is always right" niche. You might as well discard that as some sort of weapon to use with me. You'll have to come up with something else. Like a legit argument.

    Give me a fucking break. If bush were president, you'd be all over rev about this horseshit. But since he's a never trumper and trump is president, and you hate trump, it's Kath to the rescue. You go to any "diverse" board and say it's ok to call Obama's kids anything unsympathetic for any reason, you'll get the same response. Hell you'd get it here.

    And then you sit an play victim and wonder why people get pissed at you. Quit being obtuse, and trying to play dumb and tailoring the facts to suit yourself. You argument on this topic blows.

    Now, I'm babysitting a 1 years. Being as you and your argument are at the 3 years old level, you'll just have to wait. Then again, You're wrong. Repeating common sense, logic, fact and truth have had no impact on you. Enjoy.

    Reply in order to point out some hypocrisy, while it comes from someone who needs to be kicked in the head in order to condemn the black man who was in office, and thousands of threads about other wrongdoing.

    Nothing but more hypocrisy from a different angle. One thinks they are better because they condemned this or that, but so easily forgetting the things they ignore and have been called out on hundreds of times.

    Ok smartass. If a comedian ripped into Obama's kids and someone like you came along with bullshit comparisons like you did in this thread they'd be ripped in half.

    Samantha Bee calling Ivanka a "C---", is just about as bad and Trump Calling Megyn Kelly a "bimbo" and Talking about Megan Kelly's "blood coming out of her where ever"
    Seems some on right didn't have much of a problem with that though, all's forgiven... and forgotten because Trump is "making Merica great again" i guess.
    so no hypocrisy on the right's outrage worth mentioning here either i guess.

    seems everyone needs to watch their mouths, be called on their foul crap and make sincere apologizes from time to time.
    YOUR COMPARISON FAILS REV.
    The word "C---" , THAT BEE IDIOT USED DOES NOT COMPARE TO THE WORD - "BIMBO".
    As to Trump's comment, why does that matter since it was Ivanka that Bee made the comment about?
    SHE WAS NOT DESCRIBING TRUMP!
    You seem to be mixing apples with oranges, IMHO.-Tyr
