If I think you're posting an untrue source then I will state it as such. If I think you're being blatantly dishonest then I'm first going to send you a PM before calling you a liar in the open. In this case, the pot to kettle comment was the comment on how it was interesting that she picked certain quotes and not others. You're guilty of it, I'm guilty of it, we're all guilty at one time or another. The "truth" becomes spin for someone's position and not what is really happening around us.

That's where you are mistaken, calling it defeat to support a position as is constantly being spun today is blurring the lines between "truth" and an ideology. It's the old win the battle but lose the war thing. Not for this thread, but over adult beverage at another time; even if it is a virtual beverage, i think we need to define what "victory" is. That could probably get real interesting when we get around to it.
