. You've closed your mind and are willing to go to great lengths in order to defend your assumptions. Therefore, I could draw the same conclusion as you've drawn regarding me.

Michael, I asked you "which biases?" and you have not specified them. In our discussions, I recently pointed out to you my working theory about the nature of your biases and I have repeatedly given you examples. If you have ever reciprocated, I missed it. I ask you again, "which biases?" At the risk of sounding like X with her "sexiest post," which biases?

Unlike some people, I do not engage you for sport. I try to engage people who think differently from me because I am a naturally curious person who is interested in what's on the minds of different thinkers and because it challenges my thinking, which is broadening. Unfortunately, the process is quite frustrating because mostly I get back slogans and shibboleths.

I said that I thought the mainstream press would treat the slum-lord incident pretty much the same regardless of which candidate had the problem. You said that my statement contained assumptions based on my biases. You should know me pretty well by now. I'm asking you straight out for some analysis. Which of my alleged biases were in play in my statment?
