    He subverted the will of the union using the might of the government. It doesnt matter what happened after that, as a union man that is the definition of anti worker.

        It’s not lying at all, omission is only a lie if it’s misleading or nefarious, this is neither.

            Context for a joke? Do you expect context in a Colbert monologue? I’m not sure if that makes it funnier. My point is factually correct. Its a joke, not a new york times article.

            I was genuinely curious about your view point. If you lack the convictions to defend your characterization of my statement, and me personally by proxy, then maybe you shouldn’t be calling me a liar with such authority.

                    I asked you a direct question and in response you called me a liar. You impugned my integrity and I asked you to defend it. You telling me to go through your comment history is insufficient after you impugned my integrity. If you want anybody to respect your position, you need to respect other people. Otherwise, you’re just being a dick on the internet. You’re not getting anything done. You’re not changing anybody’s minds. You’re just being an asshole.
