I remember when being against the death penalty was a pretty reliable stance to have as a leftist lol did something shift recently bc…you guys are starting to sound kinda funny!
Wrong. I never said anything about the war or our role in it. I asked Abdul to condemn vicious terrorists and he gave me a history lesson on US Foreign Policy. Truly stellar reporting.
Liberals: "Guys, Hasan does NOT represent Dems or Talarico."
Republicans: "Guys, look, Hasan represents Dems as a whole, including Talarico!"
Hasan & co: "Wow guys they're both talking about me and Talarico, this means that they're coordinating."
Completely moronic
So the “gotcha” is that the guy whose family got hunted by the IRGC also supports the other candidate? Shocking. El-Sayed still got a softball—“condemn the IRGC, yes or no”—and answered with a TED Talk on why America is the real problem. Affiliation doesn’t turn a non-answer into a coherent one.
@mehdirhasan What exactly is your point. You can’t dunk on him because AES never humanized his original question. You can be anti war and anti an oppressive islamist regime

@theGhostOfRiel It's not coordination. It's just literally us saying "Hasan is bad. The Conservatives will run with this shit when they hear it" and then Conservatives running with it when they hear of it on Fox News.
