re: House Candidate Paul Dietzel on Fox Business

He looks overmatched and out of his league.
Too many buzzwords and generic phrases and not enough substance.

Yeah, I almost included that.
I meant more as his actions being the polar opposite of the very clear language he used, but I understand your criticism.

Because there is no solution to the problem. Because he never should have made the statement as a candidate to begin with.
He opened his mouth to appeal to the Left. Once he was in charge, he saw there realty was no workable solution. The whole thing is a clusterfrick.

You're proving my statement.
There are levels of "oppression". A little perspective never hurt :usa:

Was the prohibition from Congress in place when he signed the EO five years ago?

I look at this as his George H. W. Bush "Read my lips..." moment.
Obama was categorically absolute in that he will shut down Gitmo.
That's all fine and dandy in theory. It was the actuality of doing it that proved unworkable.

Even if Congress didn't block it, there is no easy way out of that situation. Gitmo is going to remain a serious black spot on our record for years to come.

I don't think the subsidized student loans exist anymore. You're looking at 6.8% from the day you sign on the dotted line.
That can be an albatross around your neck for years to come.

THE example of a candidate running his mouth about something he really doesn't know about.

Some of you should take note of what actual oppression looks like.

So nothing on the Civil War/right to privacy claim?

Definitely disclose it, but you should be able to write it off as youthful indiscretions, the military made you mature, etc..
But definitely disclose it on your applications to law schools and your application to the bar.

He doesn't have the physical stature or tools to get on a Lebron/KD level.
At the end of the day, he's still a 6'5 shooting guard.

Man that boosiebadazz guy sure was knowledgable and hilarious. From the style of his posting, it also seems like he'd have a ballin' arse dick.

Richie acts as an editor of all content posted on the website and often modifies or adds his own comments
This is significant and makes that case distingusihable from the more 'normal' CDA cases cited in that Wiki link.
The owner of the website editing and adding his own comments is significant because he is not acting as a neutral conduit of info posted by others but is rather actively engaging in whatever discussion. He's getting away from the neutral conduit and going more towards the active poster of information/opinions/defamatory statements, etc.
It'd be like Chicken himself posting defamatory stuff and then trying to hide behind the CDA. The CDA is designed to shield websites from liabiltiy solely because they were the medium by which the defamatory content was transmitted. It's not a blanket shield for you to be an a-hole if you just so happen to also own the website.
