Meet the press is not a News Show


This Sunday Meet the press (The politics of Fear) discussed the Republican Candidates position on refugees and on immigration with their usual flare of planned and orchestrated distortion and lies.  As you can tell, I was really offended.
The juxtaposition of Bush expounding Islam as peaceful with others explaining our war with Jihadist was very well done, and totally misleading:

For example: Ben Carson said, it you have a rabid dog in your neighborhood you would not think kindly of it, but this does not mean you hate all dogs (http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/videos/2015-11-20/ben-carson-explains-rabid-dog-remarks ). The clip they played left out the second half leaving the impression that Carson was calling all Muslim’s rabid dogs.

MTP dealt similarly with the other clips they used.
