Well...maybe there is a good reason FarPoint Oct 2013 #112

I think you mean "implies". Easy to mix up. Pretzel_Warrior Oct 2013 #52

I read it since he referenced it. Friedman actually got it exactly right for once. DevonRex Oct 2013 #85

Yep. Friedman was less wrong than usual Pretzel_Warrior Oct 2013 #93

One of the comments was really good. About Senate seats being more likely to DevonRex Oct 2013 #111

What ProSense Oct 2013 #2

You are right, but not so much because of what Friedman said, but because Mass Oct 2013 #3

That IS what Friedman... Phillyindy Oct 2013 #7

Thin skinned? leftynyc Oct 2013 #62

An unpopular opinion delivered at the wrong time. I fail to see any reason to excoriate you. randome Oct 2013 #10

When is a good time for an unpopular opinion? :) Phillyindy Oct 2013 #14

Never, of course. But there can be a 'better' time. Again, not faulting you, though. randome Oct 2013 #23

I get your point, but... Phillyindy Oct 2013 #27

Are you saying there's no Santa Claus? leftstreet Oct 2013 #11

Lol, he was bought out by Sears sometime in the 70's. :) Phillyindy Oct 2013 #16

because your claim is bullshit. cali Oct 2013 #15

Discrediting the facts presented... Phillyindy Oct 2013 #18

Maybe you should shove your suggestion that I'd be "comfortable over cali Oct 2013 #26

My observations... Phillyindy Oct 2013 #31

First you accuse a long-time DUer of being better off at Human Events or Townhall and then OregonBlue Oct 2013 #49

Gosh...now where have I seen that from before? Rex Oct 2013 #71

No. I'm not hitting on you. I'm calling your claims bullshit. cali Oct 2013 #83

I said the same thing about this JustAnotherGen Oct 2013 #44

Aww...somebody lost their alerting privileges! Rex Oct 2013 #46

Maybe because OP is insulting most of DU? Pretzel_Warrior Oct 2013 #61

At least s/he didn't threaten other members leftstreet Oct 2013 #96

Wasn't a threat. More of a prophesy Pretzel_Warrior Oct 2013 #98

I agree. leave it so we can all decide for ourselves whether or not the poster is OregonBlue Oct 2013 #53

Thomas Friedman is not someone I would ever use arthritisR_US Oct 2013 #51

Yet people cite the Daily Mail all the time BainsBane Oct 2013 #57

I would never cite the Daily Mail either. Originating arthritisR_US Oct 2013 #60

Impressive. OP got 2 hides on his own thread. Pretzel_Warrior Oct 2013 #58

And general disruption the past few days Pretzel_Warrior Oct 2013 #80

Again, it's computer generated BainsBane Oct 2013 #81

The OP had 5 hides in 90 days so he loses his posting privileges until it is down to 4. maddezmom Oct 2013 #90

No, that doesn't kick in until 90 days from the announcement BainsBane Oct 2013 #99

Then there must be a glitch maddezmom Oct 2013 #100
