I guess we are being civil again. Thank God. I am not a political junkie. I didn't lie in any of posts. When I hear something on the news, I believe it. Apparently in the current state of politics, that is character flaw. I guess that I am going to have live it.

When actual the date of McConnell was brought into question, that was the first time that I heard there was a dispute about the timing. That is when I goggled and found the Washington Post article. I just looking for that article again I can't find it. I didn't make up anything in my posts. The comment about Obama and the Democrats was in the article. I am going to have learn how to cut and paste an article. I didn't put a date in there, because prior to his oath of office would be 2009. Why would the Washington Post write an article in 2012, if the meeting wasn't reported sometime in 2009 or early 2010?

The only national news station that I watch on a regular basis is Morning Joe. I really think that is the only news show that is fair and balanced. When Mika speaks, I hit the mute button. All she wants to talk about is women issues. I haven't watched Rachel Maddow in years. I watch Chris Matthews sometimes, not often. I don't like anyone whose goal is to shout down someone, when he doesn't agree with what is being said by his guest. That is just plain rude.

To me "fair and balanced" has to apply to both opinions, and facts. When the show is called "The Five", balance would be two Democrats, and two Republicans, and one moderate Independent. Listen the tone of the reporters on Fox News other than the one you mentioned. They can't hide their hatred (maybe to strong) for President Obama. That is hardly fair.

As I stated, I am a moderate independent. Given the far right movement over the passed six years, the Republicans are making it hard to vote for them. I really like John Kasich. As I stated a Republican governor that accepted Medicaid funds given to states in the ACA, has my vote.

I was an accountant. The thing that really have to protect is your honesty. If you get caught lying or stealing and get fired, you are going to find it very hard to get another job. I just is worth being dishonest. I have carried that to here. What do you gain by lying, or making stuff up here? If you have to lie on a political board to support your argument, seek mental help.
