    Apparently facts have no place in a political discussion in 2016.

    I'll look at any credible source. I won't look at Breitbart or any fake news sites. I have already looked at a number of mainstream sources and they report bad things. Do you have your own opinion about Bannon? Why is he a good choice to advise the President-elect? Does he have any experience or insight that will be constructive?

    I ask questions hoping to hear something good about Bannon and that somehow shows I don't have character?

    I have never claimed Trump raped me, nor has anyone else in this forum. It was noted that there is a rape accusation out there that has not been completely refuted in a court of law. And how do you know it is false? Seems like you have a bias.

    I have made no such accusation, yet you flipped out when I asked you to say a good word about Bannon.

    Nope, not false.

    Mr. President-elect, is that you?

    Notice how this phony works. A Breitbart guy is getting smeared. He then comes up with a phony story about Breigbart smearing someone, but won't give any details. Then he says he won't listen to any character witnesses that work at Breitbart.

    They have no idea how silly they sound.

    I think it's official folks. The nevertrumpers here are drunk on sour grapes. None of the lies and smears worked, and in the end, they look make Trump look like a saint. And Baptist Believer makes the folks at Breitbart look like saints.

    Wonder if I should mention to them the rumors you're starting.

    Because president elect Trump trusts him in that position. It's his call to make.

    Not by me. I've asked for you to make a positive case and you have refused to do it.

    It's not phony and why should I give details? (1) I'm not trying to convince anyone; and (2) the person who was attacked on Breitbart is a private citizen and I don't want to bring any more pain and publicity to this relative. May God strike me dead immediately if I am not telling the truth about this.

    Which make sense, since I don't trust them.

    Do you realize how strange it sounds that apparently no one outside of Breitbart (including you) can say anything good about the guy?

    It certainly is his call to make. It's bizarre that Calminian can't just say something similar.

    I haven't started any rumors. Moreover, are seriously threatening me with the Breitbart attack dog?

    Because you brought it up. This is the worst kind of gossip. "Hey, I know a secret about someone. They're really really bad! Oh do I know something juicy. I can't say what they did, but don't trust anything they say." As they say, there's no gossip like Christian gossip. Not only are you being slanderous, you're refusing to allow any fact checking. You and your ilk are much worse than Trump or Breitbart. At least they back up their claims.

    Yes, he wants a wall. Yes, he wants to limit Sharia Law immigration. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

    It's my policy with gossip. If someone claims to have the goods on another, I often go to that other person. It's Biblical.

    I've also had multiple bad dealings for Ford Motor Company - so much so that I will never spend another dime with them. Are you going to demand that I lay everything out and then go to Ford Motor Company and investigate everything I say to your satisfaction before I have any "credibility?"

    You are attacking for the sake of attacking.

    Well I wanted a positive case, not simply justification... but its progress. You still haven't said anything good about him.

    In the meantime you have demonstrated your erratic and accusatory character. Since you apparently approve of Bannon, then I am quite concerned about Bannon's character.

    No because a mfr. often make mistakes and comes out with bad products, and there's no mystery about it. You don't like Ford's products. That's your right. Now if you were in Church making accusations about a local dealership and how evil they were, but wouldn't share any details, and I knew someone there? Yeah, I'd get you two in a room.

    In this case, you are defaming an entire news organization based on a secret you know about them. How childish is this?

    That's all the other poster offered. You praised it. I say the same thing and it falls short. Go figure.

    Actually my issue is mostly with a string of six dealerships and the dishonest practices they engaged in over 20 years ago. One of the major issues is that they would claim I needed repairs when I did not, and other times they would claim that they performed repairs when they did not. There was also an issue with the way the manufacturers warranty work was handled in that they would not actually diagnose a problem, they would simply work off the checklist resulting in a lot of time without transportation and no resolution of the problem. When I tried to take these issues up with higher authorities, I was rebuffed.

    So there's another thing for you to be vexed about.

    What they did was not a secret, and telling you the details will only harm a relative since its clear how you treat people you don't agree with.

    How childish is it to expect to be able to tell another person whether or not they must believe the world of a media source? You are not my judge and I do my own critical thinking and analysis.

    As if I ever made that claim. For the third time, I told you I dismissed claims of anti-semetism, but I guess that doesn't fit the narrative you've built up in your feverish head.
