"Argumentum by lack of contentum"



Deep, man! Deep!
(Argumentum by lack of contentum. Two punctuation marks, a single letter, and a smiley. And they say we don't have fruitful discussions in the Politics sub-forums!)
Well you could type another 500 words to try to save face....
you don't even disagree, it is just about fmw at this point.
Doing it wrong for a $1000...please, Alex!I'll take Ad Homs for a thousand, Alex.
Another explanation is that he sees trouble ahead for Hillary Clinton. Because of his close relationship with former NYC police Chief Ray Kelly and others in the law enforcement community, he might have the inside track on the FBI investigation into the former Secretary of State’s handling of classified documents and questionable foundation-related activities. Democrats have done a fine job of completely dismissing the FBI inquiry, but the possibility that Clinton could face serious legal hurdles may be encouraging Bloomberg’s ambitions.
The probe is not, as some Hillary backers have claimed, scandal-mongering by right-wing zealots. It is a serious investigation, reportedly employing more than 100 FBI agents not normally known for idle gestures. It is being directed by the famously apolitical James Comey, who heads President Obama’s FBI. Comey faced down apparatchiks in the George W. Bush administration seeking to continue a warrantless wiretapping program, putting his job on the line to do so. When a reporter asked him if he didn’t have a duty to support President Bush, Comey answered “No, my responsibility, I took an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.”
Does Mike Bloomberg Know Something We Don’t About the Clinton FBI Probe? http://finance.yahoo.com/news/does-m...101500895.html
Does he? Hmmmm...
Scorecard! Scorecard!

The term is scoreboard! Anything to refute the article? Nothing? Color me surprised!
Explains connections to why Bloomberg would consider getting involved! No?
No, the vendors at Yankee Stadium (where they refused to put players' names on their uniforms" used to sell scorecards and that was their pitch..
Yes...true, but that makes no sense! Refute the concept of why, Bloomberg might get involved, or don't. It follows the reasons listed! SCOREBOARD!
No, let me spell it out because it appears you need it! Bloom knows the players, it is the score he is concerned with! PLEASE pay attention!Perhaps I was being too clever by half. Let me spell it out.
THE AUTHOR IS A RIGHT WING POLITICAL STOOGE WHO PLAYS THE ROLE OF "EXPERT COMMENTATOR" ON FOX NEWS, and FOX AND FRIENDS. I give her musings as much credibility (e.g. none) as I do anything James Carville says without sourcing and/or evidence. A friend of Bloomberg reports that he might have inside information and that might be the reason he's putting out feelers. That's all that's there.
"Know your players" is a theme I often refer to when people haven't bothered to check the credibility of the source. I see no reason to give it any more credence than any of Breitbart's "a Washington insider tells us"....
(where they refusedto put players' names on their uniforms"
No, let me spell it out because it appears you need it! Bloom knows the players, it is the score he is concerned with! PLEASE pay attention!
But Bloomberg isn't making this claim. A buddy who knows a guy who heard something from another guy is making the claim. I know this is par for the course in the Find Any Anti-Hillary Innuendo Sweepstakes, but there's no credibility.
So, no explanation as to why Bloom is considering the race? Regardless of info?
Got it! Just say so...
What you seem to be missing is the fact that Bloom is even considering getting in the ring! His reasons have been stated! The article, as much as you hate the source as do I, give supposition to ideas! Ideas that are not unreasonable!
You have nothing to refute, but "but...but..."
I have no problems with Bloomberg running. He's a billionaire and still viewed as a Republican by most voters, I'd guess. He'll hurt the GOP and Trump more than he'll hurt the Dems.
hey, feel free to say that all you want, scream it from the mountaintop, you are entitled to your opinion.
And I can link several authors who flat out say that she is totally wrong.
And numerous left wing writers and historians are entitled to point out that Hillary's statement is wrong and awful.
Then you have failed! I turned 60 today! Quite certain I have seen more political BS than most here!I'm trying hard to understand your fascination with this topic.
