i was mostly being caustic to make a subtle point from which other points could be drawn. one, it's always ironic when the U.S. condemns other nations for their inhumane actions when the U.S. has had a history of selective outrage (just ask latin america, africa and indonesia). from this one should already know that the U.S. has been either directly or indirectly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of deaths in the last decade alone and this number is too vast too imagine if you go back a few more decades than that. so, moral relativism or the ethics of consequentalism has become the operative norm, morally speaking, and i would argue that this relativism is far more utilitarian than pragmatic, philosophically speaking. we've come a long way from the theodicy of augustine and aquinas. and yes, the fact that the media obsesses over the manner of death, rather than the sheer volume of how many innocent civilians have been killed by this reckless war on terror, is just one more element of this increasingly dystopic world.

The difference is we know it, weigh it, and discuss it. Imo Central and South America showed the stark power of business in US decision making. Then of course the communist scare tactics. Iran was the example of upholding a dictator and the problems it causes. But then we have cases like Panama. Harder to dissect.

Sean er Given Own Press Secretary To Answer Media’s Questions About His Controversial Statements

“The remarks from the press secretary are being taken out of context, which is unfortunate, given the fact that he is in actuality trying to make very much the opposite point,” said Press Secretary to the White House Press Secretary Kevin Harrigan

in his first briefing following his appointment to the role, whose primary duties include conducting supplementary press conferences after er’s daily briefings in order to clarify and explain his comments.

“If you actually look at the evidence from all sides—the substance, if not the entire whole, is solid, which is what he was trying to articulate all along.

And that remains true even if the media is trying to nitpick his words and promote their own message.

I understand the point, but it’s clear what he was trying to say with the aforementioned statements—even the parts he was referring to—and, um, I’m sorry, you can’t just pretend otherwise.”

i agree that we do and thus the last portion of my comments. i believe we have deferred to a form of consequentalism which is, at that, often influenced by 'others' agendas.

I'm surprised Jew Holloywood hasn't pounced on this. I've read reports of exagerration and lies by the jews so they can use white guilt to Steal Palestine...

but can't confirm these reports.

Regardless if its true or not, that statement shows a completel lack of empathy towards the Jews that did suffer in WW2.

I fault er for so many things but not for this. Everyone knew what he meant but had to play victim. The media is so at fault for getting distracted by crap like this.

Hitler gassed millions of jews in concentration camps, but he didn't use chemical weapons in warfare against other state militaries. That's all he meant.

8 years of nitpicking every last thing Obama did. "he saluted muh troops with coffee in his hand"

so they can go themselves if they think they won't get the same sandwich shoved in their faces.

Sean er is the perfect person to defend Donald Trash's lies

a guy who speaks of "Holocaust centers" and issues multiple clarifications in writing after his original statement (which the press room generously offered to let him correct) cannot characterize such profound ignorance and stupidity as a "mistake"

er is the perfect figure to transmit — indeed channel — the president and his administration.

er's condescension ("Stop shaking your head," he instructed April Ryan) is nothing new, nor is er's historical ignorance.

Remember, this crowd claimed that leaving "Jews" out of the Holocaust Remembrance Day statement was appropriate.

Likewise,

er's lack of mastery over basic policy issues,

his fake conspiracy theories,

preference for bullying and bluster, and

abject dishonesty mirror those of his boss, to an almost uncanny degree.
