You care nothing about the truth.

That is not constructive or intelletually honest. And that is exactly what Bush, cheny and the right wing represent. Intelletul dishonesty. And the reason Obama won. The people finally figured it out.

I will not debate issues with soemone who refuses to see or admit the truth.

Ask others on this thread if you are right.

Why would I accept them as authorities for an argument from authority?

Also even from actual experts, including experts I personally respect, I consider arguments from authority to be very weak.

You see all of this as just some sort of fight where you defend your position as best you can no matter what the facts.

Other than my direct statements you have not idea how I see things. If I'm wrong its up to you to show that I am wrong. Attacking me personally, and miscategorizing my opinions and methods doesn't do that, but I suppose its easier than making an actual solid relevant argument.

"Ask others on this thread if you are right."

Thirty Helens agree, you can't pay too much for a good pair of shoes.

But then you already know that.
