Suma ~ I just came across a book, "Cooking with Grease, stirring the pot in American politics", that I thought you might enjoy. amazon.com I just read an article in Slate by the author, Donna Brazile, that I thought was terrific. She was on tv a fair amount during the election and I always enjoyed listening to her.

"However I have found that he obtains a lot of his information from very conservative,right wing articles or publications....." And what "very conservative, right wing" publications do you perceive I obtain "a lot" of my information from? I also noticed that you didn't mention the accuracy or truthfulness of my sources. Why is that? Most of my posts on threads like these have to do with correcting false & misleading information. What does it matter who my source is if it is factual, accurate & independently verifiable? Are you saying ideology trumps facts & reality for you? Had you actually paid attention, you would have noticed that I frequently exposed lies, misrepresentations & blatant distortions by citing the Senate Intelligence Committee, the 9/11 Report, the Iraq Survey Group & other non-partisan reports (or cited articles that quoted from those reports). Any remotely conservative organization I may cite will consistently report the facts accurately, use verbatim quotes & cite their sources of their information. And these articles can be independently verified. But hey! When you lean hard to the left, anything moderate or right of center will appear "right wing" to you.
