Dear Mods... if this is considered whining... I will gladly take it down.

Thank you for your understanding.

Evidently some here agree with Krauthammer...though he has NEVER been right on a single subject. Yeah, strange double standard...I agree.

If they get enough alerts, maybe they'll show that FOX lover (as well as gun lover, what a coincidence) the door.

I do think WillyT posted it because it was about Chinese hacking, not because of Obama, but the anti-Obama nature of the cartoonists' intent was fairly plain to many people.

Hell I get all sorts of snarky insinuations about toons I post. Yesterday I posted a Mike Luckovich one that had several DU'ers imagining all sorts of nasty things.

The one that always amuses me are the posters complaining about RT or Iranian News as being Propaganda, but having no problems with posts of Fox News stories , or for that matter Krauthammer. Most news is propaganda of some sort, in my opinion.

It's just that... some here have a real problem with many of my opinions, yet I have very few people that have put me on "Ignore"...

You'd think it would be the other way around.

Curious...

If you take the "wrong" stance, no matter how well it is supported, you can suffer via jury.
