Now you're simply lying. Your first assertion was that I said Palin and Jones were comparable, here:The resignations are comparable, in the words, phrases and reasons used. Both were blame-shifting. I've made that quite clear.So the two situations AREN"T comparable? Then why would anyone be hypocritical for viewing them differently?
YOU however, keep trying to move the goalposts. You've done it again here, doing everything you can think of to avoid answering the question posed. It's your typical fare, however. Not at all surprising.
My typical fare? How many of your questions have I 'avoided answering'?
So far you've gone from the situations being comparable, to them not being comparable, back to them being comparable again.
All this while in the process of trying to ridicule OTHERS for being inconsistent.
Then when it was pointed out that never happened, was never said, you went to:NYcarbineer said:You're proclaiming that Jones and Palin are two sides of the same coin? Comparable (albeit from different ends of the spectrum) figures in behaviour, beliefs, character, and actions?
You went from saying I said the people were comparable, (never happened) to the situations weren't comparable. (Never happened either)So the two situations AREN"T comparable? Then why would anyone be hypocritical for viewing them differently?
You either failed to read or couldn't understand what I actually did say:
At no time have I said any of what you have attributed to me.Van Jones plays the Palin, "They smeared me" card and isn't called on it or called a "quitter?"
He uses the same basic language Palin did when she resigned -- that the job is bigger than one person, too much focus on me, enemies smearing me, blah blah blah -- and gets a pass?
ALL of your ducking, dodging, mis-stating of my position, all of that leads up to this:
And the answer is, just the one! IS Van Jones a quitter? You have done everything possible NOT to answer that.NYcarbineer said:How many of your questions have I 'avoided answering'?
NOW we have:
And so did Jones!Sarah Palin quit on the grounds of some wacky 'lame duck' excuse.
BOTH claimed criticism and attacks was the reason! For Palin, it was all of the ethics violation filings. For Jones it was the public uproar over past statements he's made.
BOTH are blame-shifting, weak excuses. But only one of the two people is universally railed upon for being a quitter. Jones for the most part is getting a pass.
Why?
