Do the research yourself, or simply pay attention to what is happening around you! All this sh!t you cut and paste, where do they get their facts! They draw their own conclusions by paying attention just like I do. Being an independent thinker comes with steep price, but I'm willing to pay it than be a puppet on a sting like you!

You're no thinker.

(I'm off to bed, I just wanted to post something so I can find this again tomorrow)

All you can do is paste stuff someone else said!

I think I need a nifty signing quote! I'll get on that and find one soon.

Like I said before....

When I posted in past I caught a ration of **** for not backing up my posts.

So I started posting and including information related to my posts, whether it be facts or opinion pieces I was referring to, to save the haters the trouble of saying I didn't, I caught another ration of poop.

Once I started doing that (while crediting the authors/sites) I get this happy queen of cut & paste horsepucky!

You want me to just post combinations of my writing and opinions with random unaccredited cut and pastes like some some posters do here or do you want me to give credit where credit is due?

Decide what your standards are please and quit flip flopping!

haha wow...I found a place to use the phrase flip flopping that made me smile! Thank you for the opportunity!

Most of what I post I write myself. I also research my facts and don't just make $hit up.

I haven't made stuff up, it's my own observations for what I see on the news, internet, hear on the radio. You draw your conclusions and I'll draw mine!

t22learner,

It's not my intention to enter a name calling contest with you.

However, my posts are my opinions and my opinions only which could consist of some truth, favoritism, and what I choose to see. Nobody has to agree. It doesn't necessarily make it a lie or the whole truth. It happens everyday on the news and radio.

Can you tell me that you don't sway one way or the other when it comes to your posts and what you believe is the truth?

First of all, I support Barack Obama and I would like to see him elected with a solid Democratic majority in both houses. So yes, my positions are from the left. However, I will criticize Democrats and praise Republicans when appropriate and have on these boards. I'm not just a blind, partisan drone.

Two examples of this are my praise of House Republicans for slowing down the "bailout bill," and criticism this morning of congressional Democrats role in the current crisis from their 1990's easing of capital requirements for Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.

When anyone's posts contain what I believe to be falsehoods, I'll call them out. As for "opinions," they should be stated as such, and not as fact.

That's just my opinion. I could be wrong...
