50 bucks says that in the next day, at least three MSM will point out Chelsea's lack of marriage.

[Rabrrrrrr]

I can see it, and I bet it will happen - news of Jenna getting married will turn into slander about "Why isn't Chelsea married? Like her mother, too focused on career. Or maybe after her dad's infidelity, she's afraid of getting into a commitment. Too bad Bill had that affair. I'm glad we're getting a wedding with this president and not a senate hearing on the definition of 'is'".

Or some such bullshit.

[State the Obvious]

1. Another good chance for Hillary....

...to set the Republicans straight. Are the Republiicans in such bad shape that they have to smear Chelsea?

I doubt Hillary will let this one slide.

[monmouth]

2. How about.....there are too many stupid men out there, they are not

worthy or intelligent enough for a smart gal like Chelsea. My flame retardant suit is on....lol.
No, I'm not bitter....

[Rabrrrrrr]

3. no no no - you're not thinking like the MSM. The men aren't too stupid,

Chelsea is too intellectual. She's an elitist. A private liberal college educated feminist.

[Zensea]

4. And you're starting it with this post

so what does that indicate?

[Rabrrrrrr]

5. Really? I am?

Perhaps you should read more closely.

[Zensea]

11. I did read closely

A $50 bet that MSM will bring up that Chelsea is not married?
Well, you're not MSM and you aren't knocking her for not being married, but you did bring it up.
I don't see much difference.

edit -- Also, I see you've markedly re-edited the initial post which I responded to so that it says something completely different now. Nice tactic there, another similarity to MSM.

[Rabrrrrrr]

16. Interesting equivocation.

Erroneous, of course.

[Zensea]

22. you just missed what my original point was that's all

It's not an equivocation, I'm just making it clearer what I meant in the first place which I will repeat now.
You are bringing up that Chelsea is not married and your bet was that the MSM would do so.
That's what I'm calling you on. Period.

The other part, what you or the MSM says about Chelsea not being married either postively or negatively is not what I was thinking of in the first place.

It only appears like I am equivocating because you didn't realize what I meant at first.

[Rabrrrrrr]

25. Yes, I know you are "calling" me on it - but there's nothing to "call".

[Zensea]

Whatever

Obviously I'm thinking of things on a different level than you are or at least than you are willing to admit to.

[Rabrrrrrr]

19. If you think I "markedly" re-edited the inition post, you did NOT read closely

All I changed was to add the line about the definition of "is".

That's it.

Nice try. Better luck next time.

Thanks not only for equivocation, but for outright lying.

:yourock:

:thumbsup:

[Zensea]

24. Speaking of not reading closely ...

You're doing a fine job of that one too.

[Rabrrrrrr]

26. You accused me of reediting to the point that I made a completely different point.

I never did so.

I called you on your statement.

I know precisely what you are saying - first, you had no point. You tried to "call" me on something that is not there to "call" on. Then you accused me of pulling a switcharoo, which never happened.

What, really, is your beef? What about the OP is pissing you off so much to make shit up?

Of course I had to bring up that Chelsea is not married in order to make the point that I predict the MSM will make an issue about the fact that Chelsea is not married.

Hence, I suggested to you that you read more closely, because whatever you are feel you are "catching" me in doesn't exist.

[Zensea]

29. Ok, I'll try to back away from my snark and answer

"What, really, is your beef? What about the OP is pissing you off so much to make shit up?"
I'll take your word that you didn't edit that much. When I initially read it I got the impression you were complaining about the MSM bringing up Chelsea's lack of marriage. That's what stuck in my head. When I reread it the stuff about them giving her shit seemed more predominant than it did to me the first time.
But if you say you didn't change that much, I'll accept that.
As to what got me going?
Hypocrisy, although that's probablty too strong a word.
It looked to me like you were kvetching because the MSM will (supposedly) bring up that Chelsea is not married, but you are bringing it up yourself -- even before they have ... which makes you part of the problem on that level & that is precisely what bugged me enough about the original post to make my own post - this is not equivocation (although like I wrote before, I can see why it could appear to be equivocation -- it seems we both have engaged in a bit of misreading of each other, yes?)
Now on a closer read of your intent, I see that your actual kvetch is more about what you think they are going to say about it if or when they bring it up.

[Rabrrrrrr]

30. Very gracious of you - thank you!

Yes, to your last sentence.

I probably should have titled the thread to include something about "and will slander her for it" somewhere, instead of waiting until the second sentence to make the point. Might have been easier to figure out where I was going with my argument.

Cheers!

6. define MSM...I may take that action. nt.

[Rabrrrrrr]

7. mainstream media - all the media the repukes claim is "liberal"

but which they own and use as the propaganda arm of the White House.

[IndianaJones]

10. That is broad....is Fox MSM? How to check them all? nt.

[Rabrrrrrr]

21. FOX, NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN; NY Times, etc.; and so on are all MSM

How to check them all?

I don't know.

[IndianaJones]

23. I don't think Republicans consider Fox liberal, do they? nt.

[Catherine Vincent]

8. A couple of freepers have already mentioned that.

I don't blame her for taking her time.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

9. How long until after Bush's term will they get divorced?

1 week? 2?

[Virginia Dare]

12. So, Jenna has an umarried twin..

what the hell is her problem?

[Bitwit1234]

13. Jenna has gained so much weight have you seen a recent picture

I have looked over and over and can't find it. It had a report that they were suspicious she was pregnant. Guess not.

[RaleighNCDUer]

17. So nine months after the wedding she'll give birth to a

5 month old baby?

[AlCzervik]

14. $50 says the Bush family will try and pull off a WH wedding to improve Jr's poll numbers.

[Nickster]

27. That's the first thing I thought. Nixon had one of those too if I remember correctly.

[Bitwit1234]

15. PS also Chelesa IS engaged. He is a lot older than she.

[ElizabethDC]

18. No, Chelsea isn't engaged

at least not according to sources other than the National Enquirer (which has been claiming she's engaged for years now.) And her boyfriend is about her age - I believe they were at Stanford at the same time.

[AtomicKitten]

20. never thought of that

But I would imagine she will be called a dyke at one point in the discussion, as in the acorn doesn't fall far from the tree kind of allegation.

I will never forget when my otherwise repressed Catholic GOP mother called Hillary that, parroting the wingnut lore from the likes of Limbaugh, etc. I realized how insidious that kind of hate speech is when it permeated my atmosphere.

[WI_DEM]

28. People these days often get married in their 30's. Chel has plenty of time.
