No. I'm saying if you run across a slanted (whether right or left) type of article that pertains good information, one needs to weed out the finger pointing. Notice I didn't say anything about the Republicans being at fault. I posted it to show that "hey, this is personal" in regards to the OWS movement. It has nothing to do with who's smarter. It's quite evident that SS33 is still stuck in the Repubs vs. Dems mode, which is why he responded the way he did (also on all things I post that in some way paint the Repubs in a bad light). I'm here to shit on all politicians equally, not just the Republicans. I think I've been quite fair with the bashing. All one has to do is check out my bashing of Obama to see this. So don't call me out on bashing Republicans when I in fact bash Democraps. One politician I am partial to is Ron Paul (REPUBLICAN), it's just unfortunate he's also a religious nut. :cheeky-sm

Here you say, "if you run across slanted info....etc." However, you do nothing but crush Fox News any time you mention them. Fox News provides excellent information. Hannity, O'Reilly, etc. are not "news" they are opinion shows. You check the ratings for Fox lately....oh right, that doesn't matter they just pander to idiots or those "stuck in a D vs. R mentality. You didn't say the "Republicans were at fault", but the writer of the article sure as hell did and nowhere in this thread (unless I missed something) did you mention you disagreed with that point. The article you posted was far beyond slant, it was written by a Dem strategist, provided little to no facts, those provided were wrong or distorted, and the article concluded by blaming the GOP. So you claiming this "down the middle" or "all Ds & Rs suck equally" position is disingenuous. I'm conservative, and I usually vote R, why am I going to defend a Dem or liberal position or a negative crack made at them? First off, I normally disagree with liberal positions and second there's plenty of folks here that are more capable and willing to defend that side of the aisle. They would do a much better job than I. I'm not stuck in a D vs. R thing, I simply don't agree with a majority of what you post in the politics threads. When you stomp on positions/policies I support or advocate those I don't, I'll speak up. Instead of "$hitting on all politicians" equally and not responding when someone discredits your "$hit". How about you put together a coherent response or don't "$hit" until you've got your facts straight.

Re: 'Occupy' types
You can think I'm disingenuous till you are blue in the face and it isn't going to change the fact it's simply not true.
Post # 53 Does that include folks in the Clinton Admin. and Bush Admins? Bill Clinton's drive to increase homeownership went way too far - BusinessWeek How about Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Maxine Waters, Greg Meeks, Lacy Clay, Athur Davis (all democrats) (you go onto post something from Fox news claiming Democrats were warned, and also posted a link to some Democratic politician) Post #82 Why am I not surprised....did anyone think our friends at ACORN would quietly disappear into the night: EXCLUSIVE: ACORN Playing Behind Scenes Role In 'Occupy' Movement | Fox News What a surprise. A agency that Republicans used to smear Democrats in the Presidential campaign claiming illegal voting tactics. Clearly you aren't stuck on Repubs vs Dems. These were brought out even before that liberal piece I posted and with no mention to either party. I thought we've moved past this, and went onto more productive stuff rather than poking each other with sticks.
