Maybe they will enforce them equitably , much like eccie Mods!
IMO its about bloody time they put out a "standards of conduct" list.. Originally Posted by garhkal

Odumbo's Secretary of State, hildebeest, didn't use Twitter. She used a microphone and the world stage. Everyone heard her as she blamed and then arrested an Egyptian immigrant because he made a film.
Odumbo's AG targeted journalist James Rosen as a “criminal co-conspirator” under the Espionage Act of 1917, labeled him a "flight risk" as they pulled Rosen's passport -- not just a White House pass like in Accost-her's case.
Odumbo's Justice Department seized the records of at least five phone lines connected to Fox and the phone records of Rosen’s parents; plus, they seized access to Rosen's emails from 2010.
Fascinatining how you have no recollection. Wretching Madcow isn't the journalist you think she is, right?
You can handle Google-ing the other two cases, (an Indian immigrant and a CBS reporter) right?

Media hypocrisy at its best ( Had NOTHING do with free speech ) Just a asshat The end Originally Posted by rexdutchmanThat is actually not true...the case came down to the White House not following the rules. He deserved a hearing before taking his press credentials. So the WH wants to establish rules when in fact it was the WH breaking the rules.
Now I understand that POTUS works for me but I don't work for Acosta and I sure didn't hire the little turd to represent me.

We shall see how it plays out in the courts.

But I think its a joke for Mr Pussy Grabber to talk to ANYONE about politeness, values, respectfulness, etc. He is the most uncivil public person I know of. Its truly embarrassing that he represents the USA in any fashion.
However, as long as someone at CNN is allowed into the press conferences, they should be able to formulate rules to police the bad behavior of assholes like Acosta, and kick him out when appropriate. Merely being an irritating gadfly is something Trump handles all the time, but Acosta pushed it too far, and needed to be ousted.
Hopefully, those new rules will be forthcoming and they can use them to tell Acosta to fuckoff. He is already a well known hero to the press, now, so his career is enhanced by this "injustice". Originally Posted by friendly fred

LBJ makes about anyone look refined by comparison including Trump. Funny how this all about style and not substance to you...pretty shameful if you ask me.
Its a shame the good things hes done are not worth the DAILY beating he is for Americans and the world. He is really a vile miserable human. The most recent election said a lot about what people think of 2 years of Trump the Cunt Grabber Originally Posted by themystic
Wow. I didn't think the court's would have sided with Acosta. BUT they did..Actually, the Court reserved judgment on whether his pass should be revoked or not, which will be decided subsequently after Acosta has a hearing with the factual basis explained to him. You know? Due Process that he wasn't willing to give Kavanaugh!!!! along with all the other alleged Liberal "free speechers" who are anti/never Trumpers.
For now at least. Originally Posted by garhkal
