[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 5569706, member: 12508"] My source was [I]Newsweek, [/I]where I guess they're not real journalists either. The author of the WaPo piece is Marc Thiessen, who is about as far Right as it gets. It looks like Third Way slanted it to avoid talking about Blue cities, but isn't Mr. Thiessen slanting it to blame Blue cities [I]entirely[/I] for high Red State violence levels? Yes, I think that's exactly what he's doing. So, Miami has a higher murder rate than NYC, BUT THEY HAVE A DEMOCRAT MAYOR and the state has a Republican governor. "Gosh, Batman, I think that Governor DeSantis would be able to keep crime at bay in his #1 city." "No, Robin, he's just a white-booted sissy boy." Blame the Democratic mayor even though the previous 2 mayors were both Republicans. Jesus, Ron, get your state squared away already. Thiessen has a pretty bad rap sheet, including associations with Paul Manafort and Roger Stone, and Jesse Helms, and a long reputation for shoddy journalism, advocating for CIA torture, and generally being a war monger and POS. Always check your sources. [/QUOTE]
