"To be fair"

[NNN0LHI]

Who plans on "playing fair", this election?

I sure don't. Anyone who tries this to play to my sensibilities with this "To be fair", crap can kiss my ass right now.

There won't be any playing fair coming from me.

Just wanted to get this little detail out of the way early.

1. fair, honest, integrity.... does not make one a doormat.

i work on all threee, regardless what i am doing in life. i am also aggressive and informed and able to argue.

i hate it when we decide we have to give up integrity and honesty to win. there is no need.

2. +100,000,000 nt

3. Playing fair in politics make one a loser

There it is.

You aren't going to change me with your sensibilities so you might as well save your breath.

11. i disagree with you. i think dishonest makes one lazy. nt

[NNN0LHI]

13. Well, God Bless you

That is fine but while you are deciding what fair is I will be out winning elections.

14. it doesnt work that way. see, even in your unfair, condescending manner, you in no way

won the argument. you only look bad

AND

i say this even though i like you lots.

[NNN0LHI]

15. I like you a lot too

Always have.

But no one will ever change my mind on this.

Been kicked in the balls too many times in my life for that.

Wish it wasn't that way but it is.

26. How was Obama unfair in 2008?

[NNN0LHI]

27. This seems to be really getting under your skin to find out we all don't sing kumbaya

Good.

29. I prefer not to let them drag me down to their level, but knock yourself out. nt

4. Rethuglicans are not worthy of fair play.

They call the game ... they should take what they get.


Fair play is what cost Gore and Kerry the election IMO.

5. Refresh the memory on how they went after both Obamas..Rev. Wright, "Angry Black Woman," smoking

cigarettes/dope, born in Kenya and on and on. NO, playing fair is not an option with these disgusting people. Retorting and bringing their truths to the forefront is a good road to go down.

6. fair, shmair

this isn't a game of Uno. These people have blood of innocents on their hands.
Unleash the Krackon's and go Medieval on their murderous asses.

7. There's no "fair" in politics...

Apologies to Tom Hanks.

[grantcart]

8. to be fair there are hundreds of thousands of people now in jail because they didn't take the law

seriously and found it "quirky"*


Romney's excuse yesterday for filing papers because it was a quirky legal requirement.

[hughee99]

9. But i'll bet none of them are rich.

Rich people don't go to jail for this kind of stuff.

10. That all depends on what you mean by 'fair'

If you're talking about Bain, I think it's entirely fair to bring that up. Just about anything from a candidate's public life is fine to use. As long as it's true.

But I'd draw the line at making up lies or getting too personal.

[randome]

12. Pass on the kissing part.

There are different levels of 'playing fair'. Making shit up and trying to make it stick is counter-productive and will inevitably backfire. But pointing out Republican lies and obfuscations? Nothing wrong with that.

[spanone]

16. there will be none out of kkkarl rove &co.

[randome]

17. If Karl Rove had power, Bush Jr. would not now be toxic to Republicans.

Palin would have been vetted. Romney would have been vetted.

See the pattern? Rove has been consistently over-estimated. Bullies have power only when we believe they do.

[Nye Bevan]

19. So you would tell deliberate lies?

Screw the facts? Just say and do whatever is necessary? The end justifies the means?

Beware of becoming what we are trying to defeat.

[NNN0LHI]

20. My OP speaks for itself

If you want to read more into what was written there knock yourself out.

Because I am not playing the 20 questions game with you. Would you do this? Would you do that?

See you later.

[Nye Bevan]

22. I was curious what you meant by "not playing fair".

That could mean anything from telling lies and spreading false rumors to burglarizing the Republican National Committee HQ to obtain information.

[11 Bravo]

23. Exactly! Ask John Kerry how "playing fair" worked against Rove & Company?

[NNN0LHI]

24. I just wanted to let others know that some of us understand that you can't "play fair" with a bully

I have tried that and it never worked out well.

Don

[Incitatus]

25. Why not play fair when the truth is enough to win?

[Nye Bevan]

28. Agreed. No need to burglarize the Republican National Committee

when Obama can win easily simply by explaining the benefits of the ACA and pointing out that Romney wants to repeal it.
