"You're full of shit if you think I've ever discounted a news article only because of where it appeared." Did I single you out? Oh, that straw man thingie again. "I don't know of anything newsmax has ever made up as you claim." I used to research the articles posted here to see if I could find other sources to back them. Usually, if I could find anything at all, other sources tended to report stuff that contradicted what NewsMax published. A case in point, a NewsMax article was trying to rope some Democrats into the Abramoff investigation by stating some Democrats, who were dutifully named, were on the second tier list of the DoJ for investigation. Sounds good, except the DoJ doesn't have a second tier list. You are either under investigation, a suspect, or just another person out there. A person from the DoJ, who upon investigation actually is in the DoJ, was pretty forceful about that. So, like so many things, you are wrong about NewsMax. Try checking out some of their "exclusives" sometimes. But that is way too much like making up your own mind, isn't it? Lies, distortions and innuendo is more your cup of tea. PS, anyone who takes the Freeper site as a serious source of news needs to get some type of therapy. True, every once in a while they do slip in real news, even unslanted, but it isn't all that often. They usually source from places who Just Make Shit Up. Unless, of course, they've changed in the last couple of years. I stopped giving them hits before the last election. I stopped posting there before then.
