In another thread, I bravely (?) offered to venture over to the Right and elsewhere to gauge the reactions to today's news of the FBI raids on Cohen's office and home. I was concerned for my survival but, quite obviously, here I am.
Here's a sampling of quotes I found on Free Republic:
It's almost like he is begging to be fired in order to draw attention from the firestorm of that IG report.
MEANWHILE, over at Jackpine Radicals:
There were exactly two posts in the past 20 hours that referenced Trump/Cohen/Daniels. Neither post was a defense of Trump. Rather, they were simply links to other news sites.
Fascinating.
Are we too obsessed with our navel gazing or are they all sticking their heads in their asses?

I doubt they have their heads up their asses, because they wouldn't want to cause a blockage in the place where they get their "facts".

(4,167 posts)Every once in a while someone brings them up. I dont know much of them, but from what I can gather in peoples posts, is that they use to be people from DU who left and started their own site. I finally googled them and visited their site. Lol, its almost identical to the way DU is organized.
And from the posts, I dont know where they stand on issues...Some of it is stuff you would think is coming from Limbaugh and Hannity, and some stuff they do seem Liberal...its all over the place

(22,037 posts)It will hurt your brain.
There are several DUers who post there but they tend to be non-political posts. Social networking, ya know?
Generally, the politics expressed are reactionary and a bit uninformed.
Oh, well.

(3,030 posts)and how is jpr on the Right?
PJMcK
(22,037 posts)First, I originally searched JPR's "Latest" posts going back about 24 hours. There were exactly two posts about the Cohen raids.
When I went back after I read your counter-post, I found one more.
I can acknowledge that perhaps I didn't look in the right forum at JPR. Perhaps you could show me where to look.
Second, in my OP, I referred to "elsewhere." I specifically meant JPR. Sorry if you like the site. I don't.
Peace.

(22,037 posts)Do you mean I should have read through all of the responses to OP's that weren't related to the subject of the Cohen story?
I'm disingenuous?
Kindly enlighten me. Thank you.
