" I notice you just banned someone who was willing to have dialogue with you. You might not know it but he is from another Country and looking in." He repeatedly posted OFF TOPIC despite multiple warnings & admonitions to read & follow the clear guidelines in the thread header. The guidelines are not onerous. They are there to insure civil, reality based debate (and to expose reality defying POV's). So what exactly do you think I did wrong? BTW, his ban is not permanent. To: GerryMander From: wstera_02 You either didn't read the articles I posted on the Campaign Finance Reform scam, or you just don't "get it" in regards to the guidelines for this thread. PM me when you have read the thread header, that you understand what this thread is about & that you will consistently post ON TOPIC. Until then, bye, bye. Message 21148420

"You have done well to name a great many of my sources so why not provide us with yours." I'm all for it. "Then, let the people who post here make some comparisons so that I don't stand alone." ROTFLMAO! I see. If it's just you & me honestly discussing things in a fair & equitable manner, it somehow it's inequitable, unjust, unfair & unbalanced. However, if it's me against you & everyone else here, now that's fair & balanced. :-) OK, I'll tell you what. I'll list sources I use in my research & other sources (blogs, media, etc.) I rely on for consistently credible & accurate reporting. Anyone who wishes can cite genuine instances where my sources have lied, distorted, misrepresented facts &/or intentionally deceived. For them to be considered genuine, you must be able to link me directly to my source actually telling the lie, distortion, etc. And you must also provide links to credible, verifiable evidence that what my source said was indeed a lie, etc. I will not accept personal opinions or recollections as genuine examples. I will not accept links to other people who express their opinions or recollections as fact either. Only real facts replete with links to verifiable evidence from credible sources will be accepted as genuine. I in turn, will furnish genuine examples of lies, distortions, misrepresented facts &/or intentional deceptions from your favorite sources in the same manner described above. I will ignore any responses from folks who indulge in name calling, personal attacks or other types of uncivil behavior at me, my sources or the subjects being discussed. If this cannot be done in a civil, reality based manner I am not interested in pursuing this any further on this thread. If all of the above is acceptable, then bring it on.
