Polygraphs are inadmissible in court. For very good reasons. Asking how accurate polygraphs are is like asking how accurate the keyboard of your computer is. The answer is, both can be made to say anything you want them to say. This is even more true with hypnosis. If ever there were...

Alrighty then :D Most of those "Fuck Yous" you mentioned came from Republicans. Let's look at this going back a wee bit. 1. The Clinton administration asked Fannie Mae to expand mortgage loans to low and monderate income borrowers in 1999...

I can answer this. However, I kinda get the impression this thread is done for. I'll respond if you or anyone else wants me to.

What bill are you talking about? Please don't tell me the CRA. The cause was the boom in house prices. They rose far too high to be affordable so a correction absolutely had to happen. This was due to financial shenanigans of the major banks. They whined for bailouts and both Bush and Obama...

If you coulda you woulda. That is called evidence. You make a reasoned argument, then you back it up with evidence. Oh wait, that's not what you do. That's not what you do at all

Look at this awesome post. Just look at it. Isn't it beautiful? Isn't it insightful? Doesn't it contain the sum total of the author's thinking on the matter? I don't know about the rest of you but I am blown away. Thank you so much Wickerman1972. Thank you.

The challenge wasn't beliefs, it was facts. Refute the facts. Ultimate beliefs regarding government debt or the extent of its authority are not the issue. Lots, and I mean lots, of people talk about those very things and make rational valid points without resorting to distorting history and reality.

If you want us to take you seriously you better get busy and start some refuting with facts. Wimpering about how we're all a bunch of leftists (wrong on it's face) ain't gonna cut it. It isn't about politics and subjectivity. It's about true or false, right or wrong, lies or truth. When...

Bias is not off limits. It just reveals the weakness in your arguments. Refute things point by point by point. The op ed piece I linked was full of facts. Try to refute them. Go ahead.. I dare you. Refute the quotes Beck made about "taking back the civil rights movement" Refute the history...

It isn't personal. It's to goad you into putting more effort into your posts. To check your facts before you post. Whether you realize it or not I'm the best friend you have on this forum and I'm telling you you are making an ass of yourself. Listen to what I'm telling you. You claim to...

Anyone who actually thinks. I'm sure he has lots of fun with his own little rants too. Among many many others, which you will find with a minimum of effort. I encourage you to do so. Do some serious research and you won't like him for long. I promise.

Enter the terms Glenn Beck Ayn Rand into google and start reading. And weep.

Ayn Rand? The Ayn Rand that had a crush on a serial killer? That Ayn Rand? Ayn Rand is radical left? Leftwing thinkers immerse themselves in Atlas Shrugged? Now those are facts! Holy shit. You're killing me here.

Some narratives are unsupported by fact, others sit atop a mountain of empirical evidence. Sure, everyone has their own opinions. The facts, however, are not owned by anyone. False equivalency arguments break down in the face of reality. An opinion unsupported by fact is not equal to an...

To anyone in this thread that hasn't clued in that Glenn Beck is one of the most loathsome. vile creatures on the airwaves read this. http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/08/25/1790858/this-is-who-we-really-is-glenn.html

My laptop met with an unfortunate, um, demise. I had to haul this old pos out of storage to use until I can get a new one. If I get creative I can get by in the meantime.

The edit option is missing on the bar at the bottom. Sometimes it's there sometimes it isn't. Probably something wrong with my browser. It is old. See, the edit option is there for this post, but not my previous one. Weird.

Hey, I didn't say it was logical. I agree with you here. "Grace" as a concept as taught by Christianity has always perplexed me. My point was that the first three statements standing alone are being used to imply that Christianity and the God it worships are mean spirited, unfair and vengeful...

I have this daydream where one day while on the air Glenn Beck rips his own face off, revealing it to be a mask. Beneath the mask is.....Andy Kaufman, who has really been alive all this time and pulling off the greatest prank in the history of pranks.
