Why is it that press accounts, Democrats such as U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer and poor loser, anti-Trump operatives can say half-truths or outright lies about President Donald Trump or any Republican, and the resulting, very natural response is described as an attack? If someone lies about me, I have every right to defend myself. Responding to a lie or a deliberately misleading statement is not an attack. Of course, when a Republican does that, it becomes an attack. The Democrats have been getting away with lies and half-truths for years thanks to the major media. The Associated Press is the leader in print. A response to Democrats' lies is called a denial, in order to continue casting doubt on the person defamed. Thanks to some weak-kneed legislators, Republicans have not responded enough to liberal lies, worried about what the press will say.
The media will never be happy with Republicans. Pick up a paper or watch national TV and you will get examples of anti-Trump bias every day. There should also be a housecleaning in the leftist, leaking State Department. Thanks to Trump, there will be more pushback. I hope Trump voters understand what is going on.

Thanks for the additional background on this guy, thephan. The letter definitely reads like the rantings of one of the local stooges. I will say this, there very well may be (and probably is) anti-Trump bias in the media everyday - that, however, does not mean that Trump is not a lying POS. And to his "hope", if Trumps voters understood what was going on, we wouldn't be seeing letters like Mr. Gyomber's.

Rep. Chris Collins also argued that CBO’s estimates wouldn’t capture that the Trump administration could implement the law in a way that prevents fewer people from going without insurance. He also noted that the CBO estimates wouldn’t take stock of potential future bills Republicans could pass to ensure that Americans have health care.

“The estimates of the coverage don't look into what Tom Price can do as head of HHS or what might happen with other legislation, perhaps with bipartisan support,” Collins said.

Well, the CBO usually tries to deal in facts and actual drafted legislation, so that is pretty unfair if we're living in fantasyland.

Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt said Thursday he does not believe carbon dioxide is a primary contributor to global warming.

"I think that measuring with precision human activity on the climate is something very challenging to do and there's tremendous disagreement about the degree of impact, so no, I would not agree that it's a primary contributor to the global warming that we see ," he told CNBC's "Squawk Box."

No takers on the ultra-pro Washington TIMES running with a failing GOP headline. I am worried about you people.
