OK, cool. But your "reasonable interpretation" without sufficient facts has led you astray before.

Didn't touch a nerve at all. I figured you couldn't substantiate that comment, and thought that this would be a kind of object lesson.

That's not really a question. It's your opinion wrapped in a question.

Here's the thing, Finnster. I quote from all sources that I consider potentially relevant. I've quoted from the NY Times, WaPo, CNN, Newsweek, etc. I rarely quote from Fox, and I quoted from Solomon maybe once. So, I apologize if I hit a nerve posting from Solomon that one time. I do try to quote from a diversity of sources because I read from a diversity of sources.

Some folks on here quote almost exclusively from left-wing sources as if those sources are akin to the word of God. These are typically opinion pieces disguised as news stories. Opinion pieces disguised as news stories are not exclusive to left-wing sources like Alternet and Raw Story, but there's no attempt by these sources to differentiate between opinion and fact. At least the Hill made the decision at some point to move Solomon's pieces to the Opinion section.

The real question is: it really seems to have hit a nerve when I posted a piece from Solomon. Where is the same righteous indignation from you when folks quote from Alternet, Raw Story and others?
