Well said again Jim. You know that "lack of free speech" argument is a load of BS. Like all too many libs who float this same straw man argument, c.hinton simply won't admit that left wingers like himself (DNC & MSM included) are not capable of engaging in honest, reality based debate. Consider c.hinton's "lack of free speech" argument in context with his posts here. Thread rules insist on reality based debate. c.hinton consistently posted articles that contained statements that were demonstrably inaccurate. c.hinton himself made similarly inaccurate statements. These statements were asserted as fact but were completely unsubstantiated. Most importantly, these false &/or grossly distorted statements were the critical elements of his POV. When we provided credible evidence to debunk c.hinton's numerous inaccuracies, he never admitted those assertions were wrong, nor did he retract them. Every time those highly inaccurate statements were challenged, c.hinton refused to provide credible support for them. Instead he moved the goalposts &/or posted more inaccurate, unsubstantiated assertions stated as fact. When he was warned that he was regularly violating thread standards, suddenly this thread became guilty of a "lack of free speech". So what does that tell you about c.hinton's version of reality based debate? Precisely what type of free speech was being squelched in c.hinton's reality based debate? NOTE: Since we are discussing c.hinton, he has been temporarily unbanned. His posting suspension will be reinstated later today after giving him a few hours to respond.
