While I may not have all the answers (yet ), I'll take my version of history up against his any time, any place

Opinion vs. opinion...beliefs vs. beliefs. This is not a classroom.

Sorry Bronko but that's just a load of horse hockey.

Opinions are based on how you process what you percieve to be reality...

Some peoples version of reality has been heavily manipulated, I try my hardest to understand what's real and what's not.

For instance, the assertion that top Democratic Congresspeople are on the record stating Saddam's WMDs justify unilateral action as believed by many (due to out of context quotes circulated by the GOP) is a proveable falsehood when put in proper context.

The information is out there if people take the time to read it.

If someone like Skipper want to make this assertion to back their argument, I will correct them.

I would hope that others would do the same when I'm in error...

This is why these threads spiral out of control. From this statement one must assume you know the truth or have the knowledge to teach. I guess Skip should assume that because you can spout your partisan whackery in a more eloquent fashion than he can then you are in some position to teach him? You have an OPINION, period.

His moniker is SkipN, not Skippy, Skipper or any other derivation you find cute. Let's keep the patronizing comments and erudite slights to a minimum.

We're all in a position to teach each other...quite often I learn things I didn't know or am exposed to another viewpoint by what people say. I happen to respect and appreciate this.

I'm a partisan only in that I'm a fervent supporter of the "truth" which is grossly underrepresented today by both sides. The assumption that I deeply embrace liberal or progressive policy is a product of more manipulation and very small minded.

Do I preach? You bet...it's fun. If you don't like it don't read my posts...but when people make an attempt to seriously question what I'm sayinig I try to give them a well thought out response.

Skipper-py-loo knows I'm just having fun, perhaps when he has something worthwhile to say I'll start showing some respect

I can try to explain it to you, but I can't make you understand it.

Nice!

I'm being a bit irreverent on the Skipper stuff obviously, but regarding opinions and such...let's just say I disagree.
