the lying liberal media lies again

[TheDemSocialist]

It's called an analogy.
Are you objecting to analogizing rabid dogs to the murdering ISIS scum?

An analogy is a comparison that shares similarities. So I guess the "media" didnt lie here then.....

 

[Lord of Planar]

Yeah, most liberal apologist don't have any idea what he was saying, and they're so used to interpreting Obama's nonsense, but they're sure it was brilliant and inciteful.

What's sad, it what yoou say isn't far from the truth.

That said, Obama makes Kerry look like a genius.

Why?

Rabid dogs are infected and play no part in their disease - ISIS, not so much.

In addition, there is a vaccination for rabies - no known vaccination for ISIS as yet.

Therefore, rabid dogs are being unfairly tarnished here.

 

[nota bene]

American mainstream media repeats what their government says. There is no journalism there and the people are uninformed.

I'm waiting for the Internet to reach the United States. I've heard that there are English versions of many of the world's newspapers.

How did you get that out of his post? That isn't what he said, and what you said is a lie. Carson didn't compare Muslims to dogs. The amount of dishonest posts in this thread is astounding.

This:

If there is a rabid dog running around your neighborhood, you're probably not going to assume something good about that dog.. By the same token, we have to have in place screening mechanisms that allow us to determine who the mad dogs are, quite frankly.

TL didn't read version: Muslims/refugees/whomever, like dogs/rabid dogs, should be screened.

In his analogy, the Muslims/refugees/whomever, are represented by dogs. Is this really that complicated? Do you not see why people might have a problem with an analogy about dogs -- who are eaten, inbred, beaten, made into coats, etc, Oh and I almost forgot seen as horribly unclean in both Islam and Middle Eastern people as a group -- being used as a reference to the people that are ultimately at the center of his analogy? Really?

 

[HowardBThiname]

So we are agreeing now that he did in fact use "rabid dog"/dogs as a comparison for refugees?

And to answer your question I didnt know it was needed... Just went through this article Ben Carson compares Syrian refugees to dogs - POLITICO Took all the direct quotes from Carsons speech...

The reason you purposefully excluded Carson's statement that he loved dogs was because it poked a hole in your theory. If, as you suggest, Carson was making a comparison, then by saying he loved all dogs, he was making the statement that he loved the refugees in general. That's why you left that bit out. That would mean (were your comparison theory correct) that Carson only compared terrorists to rabid dogs.

And do you not think a comparison of terrorists to rabid dogs apropos?

I, however, hold it to be an analogy - not a comparison.

Just showing that the OP is wrong in calling this a "lie".

 

[Peter King]

Wut? You don't stop loving your dog because it contracts a disease. You have it put to sleep for your protection as well as its protection, but you don't do it and say "I hate you now". Just like you don't stop loving your child who turns out to be a murderer. It isn't the dog's fault. And unlike people, dogs don't make conscious decisions. Islamic militants do.

1. he was not talking about his dog but a rabid dog running through the neighborhood

2. there is more in the world than love and/or hate. Just because you do not love something does not mean you hate it.

3. no, if it had been my animal I would have loved it enough to vaccinate him and protect him from getting rabies

4. and we were talking about dogs. Yes people love animals incredibly much, but it is not like loving your child who turns out to be a murderer.

5. Islamic militants are not rabid dogs or any other kind of dogs. This was a stupid comparison of Ben Carson, it is just that simple.

Oh.
It didn't sound like you grasped the actual point Carson was making about ISIS.

 

[pbrauer]

Read the OP again (?) and tell me if he was speaking about the ISIS?

The lying liberals lie again.

Politico lies.

Carson did not compare Syrian refugees to rabid dogs.

He compared terrorists to rabid dogs.

The lying liberal media seems to be so entirely stupid they can't tell the difference.

Once their sponsors figure out their ratings are tanking because of their irresponsible lying rhetoric, then the ad revenues will follow.

You'd like me to believe that the brightest minds at ABC News can't figure out a simple analogy? Horsepucky. They can figure it out just fine.

The interesting part of the equation, is they seem to think we can't.

If you're screening for rabid dogs, then every individual that isn't a rabid dog is just a _ _ _?

Fill in the blanks.

This lying liberal media is completely worthless. You might as well turn off the news, 'cause you already know you're not going to get the truth.

The lying liberal media lied again tonight. All over the airwaves. On practically every channel in existence.

"Carson compares immigrants to rabid dogs". That was the headline on the ABC Evening News. David Muir said that.

But I listened to what Carson actually said. He was making a statement about "stupid policy". He wasn't comparing anything to anything.

The lying liberal media utters a collective "gasp" every time they hear the word "immigran. (And then the next word that comes out of their lying liberal mouths is "racist").

The lying liberal media is owned lock stock and barrel by their advertisers. They're not giving you the "news", they're telling you what their advertisers want you to hear.

They're certainly entirely devoid of credibility as a legitimate journalistic enterprise.

I see everyone got this story wrong except you? I've got news for you, not even the conservative NewsBusters caught this one. LOL

 

[Frank Apisa]

Maybe it is much more likely that the media has a moderate bias, but to conservatives even moderate bias is the exact same thing as liberal bias because from their conservative point of view, everything not as conservative or close to as conservative as they are is liberal/liberal bias.

Sure, there are some really liberal media (Daily Kos, etc.) but most media outlets are not rabidly conservative or liberal, they are just moderate. But as said, when you are a true blue Fox new enthusiast, even moderate media sources must read like liberal/commie/socialist propaganda against the conservatives.

No "maybe" about it, Peter.

America's conservatives have become so strident...they suggest that almost everything not favoring their position is a "lying liberal position."

This is what will lose them the White House again.

Yes ... he was talking about ISIS embedded with the refugees.

Maybe if folks like your eventual nominee and our current President wouldn't be so comfortable lying, then people wouldn't be able to accuse her/him/them of lying.

you can't seriously be blaming your imaginary enemy "the liberal media" for this one?

Above you will see in his OP and nowhere in it will you see "ISIS" mentioned.
Also, I've cheched the conservative website NewsBusters and it seems as though he is the only one wh o has flagged this as liberal media bias.

And here is a conservative website that adds fuel to the fire:

Wait a minute ... are you actually suggesting that the "rabid dogs" among the refugees was not referring to ISIS terrorists among the refugees?
You really didn't get that?
I never would have believed you'd be willing to play that feigned outrage game on this ... it's way too much of a stretch and it triggers eye-rolls.
Please say you're not doing that.

All I am saying is the OP is wrong.

 

[bubbabgone]

All I am saying is the OP is wrong.

Anyone in the media who reported that what Carson said was referring to something other than ISIS terrorists as rabid dogs then they're either lying for their own reasons or they're simply wrong and shouldn't be in the journalism line of work.
If that's what the OP was intending to say then he was right.
All better now?

Uh, no. Carson DID compare a rabid dog to to a Syrian / ME immigrant: "if there;s a rabid dog running around in yor neighborhood, you're probably not going to assume anything good about it".

So, how did he go from immigrants to rabid dogs and make the rabid dog a different subject? Was he commenting on his veterinarian skills? Is that his new talent now?

No, of course not. He was applying the analogy of a rabid dog onto a Syrian refugee. So, clearly he's just an idiot and the media knows it.

I'm not sure what you are basing your logic on here. Carson was quoted in the comparison he made. What's so hard to understand about that? In the future, it may be a good idea to post a video of what you're talking about so that we can analyze it. Geez.
