        Great. Has she rescinded her incorrect tweet then, or can you just point me to where she corrected it?

        This isn't tweeted by some random blogger, it's a CNN reporter who is supposed to be accurate, at least one would think.

        And what is the point she is conveying? "Look at these righty's that want to dump Kavanaugh!" She says none are liberals. Wrong. None are pro choice. Wrong. 2/3 are both those things.

        Not to mention had she even been accurate in citing America, it's is a small publication with 45k circulation (there are 70 million Catholics in the US) that has since equivocated on the original editorial, which basically said after the hearing that they'd prefer it if K was just replaced with someone less controversial that is still Pro life.

              She's a (Republican) political commentator, not a reporter--there is a difference. Perhaps if you want to crusade for accuracy in tweets and responsible rescinding of inaccuracies, there is someone higher up the food chain you could focus your attention on?

              edit: ignoring the rest of your post as it's not particularly relevant to anything I posted.

                The vote to move forward is smart for all of them. End this crap one way or another. I dont envy their staffs though...

                  I said it was wrong. If you think that was accurate then say so, don't just make some bs talking point accusation. Talk about programming.

                    If you are going to go all semantical on us you might want to get all of your facts straight. As stated by others she is not a reporter, she is a GOP commentator. Not the same thing.

                    Now normally I would probably let that go but since you seem to be on the Semantics High Horse of late I figure it is relevant

                      Collins announcing her vote at 3 I guess. My guess is she is voting yes. I think Murkowski might stick no though. Just gut feeling though.

                          From her comments from yesterday it's pretty apparent that she wouldn't vote no based on the assault accusations since she thinks it was a super duper thorough investigation that found no corroboration. I guess there's still the tiny hope that she'd vote no based on the naked, angry partisanship he displayed in the hearing. But, I think the fact that she claimed the investigation was thorough even though it clearly was not probably indicates she'll be a yes.

                            agreed.

                            way to let me down again Susan.

                              I suggested this was largely unimportant to start with, but that it was wrong. Who cares if she's an R or a Hare Krishna? ( the latter does provide a really terrific free vegetarian lunch on the UF campus on Tuesdays, btw) I agree that I was wrong in using the word reporter. See? I can say actually I was wrong. However I disagree that my argument was a semantical one. The tweet is blatantly wrong to anybody that can read. So what? So nothing, it's just one illustration of how easily ideas can be spread around that just aren't factual. That's not a secret or anything, everybody sees it.

                                I am just saying if you seem very anal about little things of late so you have to expect that to be returned in kind. It is like when grammar nazis get called out on boards...nothing personal just fun
