Is the reply "low information voter" just a reflexive argument to anyone proving you wrong when you cannot formulate any type of coherent reply addressing their point?

Generally speaking they consider everyone who's not a right winger a low info voter, because obviously nobody who's properly informed would be anything else.

I maintain that racial animus per se isn't as big a factor in Voter ID as some people think (although it's still there). It's more about preventing Democrats from voting than black people. And in my experience they're hilariously open about that.

It's a bit off topic, but I'd imagine Hank has rose-tinted glasses about the last Texan first family not to be broadly loathed, since that business occurred in his childhood. Setting aside her support for LBJ's politics, she's best known for wildflowers now.

Hank had an existential crisis when he meet GWB at a fair and received a limp handshake. He votes republican but struggled to rationalize voting for a man with a weak shake.

E: beaten. Phone posting equals distraction

At risk of perpetuating a derail, Hank met (former) worst president ever Jimmy Carter and was awestruck. He respects every president. Hell, he respects every official down to municipal zoning boards.

It's very clearly NOT aimed at keeping white Democrats from voting, because there's no clear mechanism to target them. It's racial through and through. Partisan, yes, but primarily racial.

The right is having a field day with Obama saying that ISIS is not Islamic. Their rebuttal is "It has Islamic in the name!" when his entire point was that they call themselves Islamic but do not represent any actual Islamic teachings. Pointing out that they call themselves Islamic doesn't in any way contradict what Obama said but they can't shut up about it. It's not even a "You didn't build that" soundbyte where he's taken out of context, it's perfectly clear what he means in the two sentence clip they keep playing.

Certain sections of the right have fully and unapologetically embraced anti-Islamic racism & bigotry. For the people posting that stuff, "Islamic" is synonymous with "bad."

Basically james foley's mother is pissed at Obama because he didn't do enough to save her son and we should have negotiated with ISIS. I am sure the right will run this story into the ground.

Go right ahead I say. Maybe it'll lead to someone pointing out this is the same gaggle of morons who don't want Obama negotiating with actual diplomats from ME countries about anything, who now want him on the phone with any jihadi with a cell phone camera and a complete lack of humanity.

Bush expressed similar sentiments with regards to al-Qeada after 9/11, but I don't recall anyone calling him a terrorist-coddler. It's almost like both he and Obama didn't want to pointlessly antagonize Muslim moderates in the region and encourage anti-Muslim pogroms here in the States.

So the only thing is that the person making accusations believes it to be Zimmerman? Not exactly credible, but that Zimmerman has that reputation is pretty funny. 'Some generic overweight latino looking guy called me a fucker in traffic, it must have been George Zimmerman!'

Guess i misread it. I didn't realize the talk they had with him was in that parking lot. I just figured they talked to him at home. I'm on my phone on the bus so I didn't check the videos if they provide more clarity. My bad.
