*raises hand* Yup - I'll have to cop to that one. I tune into the drama for entertainment. But I don't base my decisions on it. It is my guilty pleasure, though.

So post the link, dammit.

I can't stand being out of the loop.

He was being polite so as to kep the nastiness out of his campaign; something else Hillary wouldn't understand. The only reason Hillary feigns politeness is because she knows it'll be reported that way.

The simple fact is Hillary is calculating, coniving, controlling and generally unpleasant.

So, in other words... you got nothing? No visual evidence to back you up?

No textual claim with a YouTube link? No photos(which really don't even count anymore with photoshop)?

Nothing?
Come on. I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. All I ask is a shred of proof.

Much like the proof that the media is bought and paid for by the Clintons. It should be easy enough, although, I'm still waiting for that evidence

Richter-I saw KO discuss this on the SotU msnbc coverage last night and it was said that there was no video of the event.
The (AP?) fotog said that it was clear that he avoided shaking her hand so KO said we'll have to trust him on that.

Then by the powers vested in me by nobody, I hereby pronounce this thread a big waste of bandwidth

You're "about" to? What are you waiting for, then? Lehrer is on every night at 7 eastern. NPR runs all day. They both have podcasts, numerous in the case of NPR.

Of course, by vowing your exclusive allegiance to PBS and NPR, you'll miss out on a lot of coverage. Debates, campaign speeches, endorsement rallies, coverage on election nights, etc., etc.

I'm sure you took that into account.

They complain about "the media", yet they keep watching.

It's like an oil "addiction".

Tell that to our media. They're the ones that assumed the worst of reasons.
