What's with this media 360 from CNN?

They're the fox News of the left anyways but it's weird to hear them be disrespectful to Obama. If you're going to be pro trump than do that but what's with tarnishing or trying to tarnish a great man's legacy?

CNN has been good at times but I'm not just saying I think they've been to the right side of the left.

Only the most lame-brained, half-witted, slow-learning right-wingers have EVER referred to CNN as being in any way at all leaning left. CNN has NEVER been "soft" on the left. NEVER.

Rabid, racist fascists have referred to "CNN" as "Communist News Network" but who doesn't know them to be completely insane?

you don't think they lean left. You win some you lose some. But calling me names only makes you and our party look bad. Stop doing that now.

I do.

It doesn't make me bad, or a troll. It just makes me a person with a different opinion than you. If you can't handle somebody with a different opinion than you being in your party, maybe you should leave the party.

And I don't know what "You Are Not Fooling Anyone" is supposed to mean, if you're claiming me to be a troll. I've been completely honest about myself and given personal details about myself. I come from the right, so me believing CNN leans left is probably something ingrained in me. However my priorities are liberal. You should think about trying to appreciate someone on our side from a different perspective from you instead of rid yourself of it. We're all on the same team. Coming from different perspectives is what lets us see different ways to make things better and attack different problems. We're not trying to become one-dementional.

There have always been obnoxious people like that nasally voiced Lord guy, trying to tarnish Obama.
