One example was the conclusion that posters on this thread were "cheering" the Canadian couple whose quads were born here and that this reaction (that you inferred in the first place) would not have occurred for Mexican parents. I'm assuming that bias was an outgrowth of discussions over the immigration bill. I did not think the conclusions you drew were even remotely supported by the articles or posts. Today, in the course of lecturing about critical thinking, you said that "Christian fundamentalists and Islamic fundamentalists are both fundamentalists. Those are facts..." You therefore accepted, without any "critical thinking", the premise of the Amanpour series and discarded my point about the meaninglessness of the term "fundamentalist" because it did not fit your construct. I don't regard that as "critical thinking".
